by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

Well, I was supposed to be induced this morning because I'm 42 weeks pregnant, but thanks to our wonderful NHS, there are no beds available.

Anyway... now I'm killing time... waiting until much later this afternoon to find out what's happening...

In the meantime, what do you think of these names? Which do you prefer? I think I've put them in my order of preference...

Top favs

Poppy

Hazel

Others

Anna

Vivienne

Taryn

I'd like Andrea as a second name after my late brother, so second name combos could be as follows (My surname is Wilson);

MY FAVS

Hazel Andrea Wilson

Poppy Andrea Wilson

MY NOT-SO FAVS

Anna Poppy Wilson

Taryn Andrea Wilson

Vivienne Poppy Wilson

ALSO FLOATING AROUND,

Annaleigh

Any comments and time-killing opinions appreciated.

Thanks

    Some suggestions from me:

    Poppie Lily Wilson.

    Poppie Amelia Wilson.

    Poppie Louise Wilson.

    Poppie Amber Wilson.

    Poppie Taylor Wilson.


  2. i like taryn andrea

    and annalise is cute

  3. I love the name Anna- Lee.

    Good luck with everything

  4. I like Ann-Marie or Anna.

    Poppy is cute...but she may 'grow out of it'.

    Annabelle is a nice name too.

  5. Poppy Vivienne is pretty. :-)

  6. Lola Rose Wilson

    Cassidy Mae Wilson,

  7. I love:

    Hazel Andrea Wilson (Hazel Wilson)

    Anna-Lee Hazel Wilson (Anna-Lee Wilson)

    Anali Hazel Wilson (Anali Wilson) [pronounced anna-lee)t

    Other random suggestions:

    Charlotte Andrea Wilson

    Meagan Andrea Wilson


  8. Omg.. Not poppy!!! Couldnt image when the kid got older !

  9. I think Vivienne Andrea Wilson sounds beautiful! I don't care for Poppy at all. Hazel Andrea also sounds nice.

    Good luck with everything.

  10. Do not choose for you- choose for the child so they will not be embarrassed by you later when ever they are introduced

  11. Poppy is a lovely name :)

  12. love poppy. I love Britton, Adia (like that Sarah Mcglouclin song) Micah and Olive. Oh and Italee

  13. I really like Poppy, Hazel, and maybe Vivienne.

    If you're going to have an Anna name, I think you should go for Annalise or Annaliese, same thing just spelt differently. Only thing is I think it doesn't sound as good with Andrea, because both names begin with the 'AN' sound. It sounds OK, but not as good as the other names.

    I think you should wait until you have the baby, and actually look her in the eyes.

  14. How about Annalise/Annelise or Annabel?

    Or Annalisa Poppy sounds great. Or Poppy Andrea.

    Congrats and good luck with the birth =] xo

  15. Waw! Scary! fake it and get a bed...................

    ..........in the mean time how about Andreia (pronounced on-dray-a) instead of Andrea, its just a little different.

    Good luck for the birth

    x x x

  16. Annabell(e)

    I think Andrea would be cute as a first name too!

    Good luck! Hope you get a bed soon!

  17. Well good luck for going into hospital later and congratulations when baby  arrives. I think Anna Lee is really nice. Goes nice with Wilson too.  

  18. You have my full sympathies. I was induced at 42 weeks 3 years ago in a full hospital. I was given the first pessary at 7am and the 2nd dose was supposed to be administered at 6pm however they refused to do it because they were too busy. Don't let them start you off until they can promise you continuity. Time killing options: Walk - a lot - as much as you can. Hopefully it will bring on natural labour. Sleep, again as much as you can. Induced births can take a couple of days and, although you will sleep a little, you will be tired. If this is your first baby; chat to all your friends on the phone, you won't have so much time after the baby arrives.

    Of your name options I like Hazel Andrea best, but wait until you have seen her to decide. Poppy is cute but she'll be a 50 year old one day and it's a little girls name (to me anyway).

    Good luck

  19. Hazel is the best

  20. Good luck, hope all goes well, Anna -Lee sounds great !

  21. I think you should have Hazel Andrea. That's a lovely name.

  22. not keen on hazel nbut poppy is lovely

    poppy andrea wilson sounds great


  23. Love Poppy (Nickname only), Hazel, Anna (Prefer Anne), Vivienne.

    Love Anna Poppy Wilson.

    Don't care for the other combos.

    Love Poppy as a nickname for these:

    Penelope

    Persephone

    Philomena
