Aidens mum. You have a lovely surname. It isn't weird at al too use that.

Grease, I LOVE the name! How gorgeous! We keep going through names but it sounds like it will be one of these, Anya, Olivia or Emily, but not sure which! What do you girls think?

Emily would have been our little girl if we'd had a pinkie this time. DH and I have also talked about Olivia.

Thanks aidansmum!!! I LOVEEE Anya, it's so sweet and unique!!! I know a lot of Olivias and Emilys

I won't be choosing a middle name as in my Country we don't usually give middle names, but rather the mother's surname, and then the father's, which I find pretty fair considering I'm the one who carries a baby for 9 months and go through all the agony of bringing it into the world lol. So, for example, she would be called Anya (or Olivia or Emily) Amorim (my maiden surname) Doyle (daddy's surname). But I would use my surname as a middle name because I don't want to hyphenate it and have the poor dear spell it for the rest of her life, so my maiden name becomes her middle name. Unusual when you live in australia, but I can't give up my maiden name like that and just use daddy's name, not fair in my mind (too feminist?lol)

I love Anya Amorim Doyle!

[aidansmum]

Thanks girls! The hard thing about choosing an uncommon name is that you like it but you don't know what it sounds like to others. Thanks for your help. We might go with Anya I guess, I think it suits a child and it sounds so womanly and classic in an adult. Thanks again for your opinions!

[gafan]

Sorry you didn't hear pink. My heart goes out to you.
I hope you begin to feel peace about your little one soon. It sounds like he's healthy, so that's good. We're here for you.

[gafan]

I like Anya and Olivia. Beautiful names.
I have a friend who gave her maiden name to her son as a middle name, and it works well.

[dreams529]

I agree with Anya! Beautiful name!

Thought of my gender reveal just going to make up some pink paint get a white t-shirt and have the boys plaster their hands all over me, that should get the message across
