    Big Smile Spelling of our boys name

    So i am due with a boy
    we have always had our boys name picked since our first child who turned out to be a girl, and our second born turned out to be a girl too so.......third time lucky and its a boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Anyway
    our son will be named
    Dezi/ Desi Leigh
    (his second name after DH middle name)

    which Spelling do you like the best?
    it is short for Desmond but i do not like Desmond so it will be Dezi/Desi written on his birth certificate! I also found out that it means "longed for" which is great coz he is sooo longed for after 2DD's ( we are in Aus if that makes any difference to the spelling)
    TIA

    I don't know...since it is after Desmond, I think I would use Desi but I think people might pause when they say the name to figure out how to pronounce and it seems a little girly with Leigh as the spelling(here in the States Leigh is a girl's name whereas Lee is more unisex so if they read Desi Leigh, people here would assume it is a girl)- Dezi seems more masculine. Changed my mind! Dezi!

    Dez is cool too.

    Me I would name him Desmond ( I like the name from Lost) and just call him Dezi for sort.
    But if you don't want to do that then Dezi for sure!

    Flava, I like Desmond from Lost too!

    I like Dezi better. The Z is more masculine!

    Congrats on your boy!!

    I like it with the Z better, more masculine. I don't think they would mistake that for a girl, but I think Desi might get that. Super cute name!!!! I am so thrilled for you, Chunksta!!!!!

    I agree with Dezi - people might pronounce Desi as 'Dessi'. Congratulations again!
