*whispers* I dont like Ashton

Oh I dont get angry........ I get even

Only kidding! I dont care that people dont like my name choices at all, its my child I will call her/him what I want, the next boy I have is gonna be called Egbert-Lionel Humperdinck Twine

Kate, me and you are gonna fall out in a mo!!!!!

my cousins baby is called stella lilly i think its awful and when anybody asks what she is called i have to say picadilly to remind myself what it is.

I had a friend years ago who swore if she had a boy she was going to call him Barnabus, thankfully she had a girl . I think it started out as a joke but the more ppl hated it the more adamant she was that she would call her child it.

My hairdresser called her daughter pixie last year. Even the midwifes were telling her not to do it but then she had quite a traumatic birth and in the end the midwifes told her to call the child whatever the heck she wanted after what she had been through!

2nd-ed (not so sure on the Egbert-Lionel Humperdinck Twine though Trace)

Jonah is the most beautiful name I know of for a baby boy
Unless some think we Christened him "bean" only downside is we did sort of out-do ourselves in terms of then choosing one equally as perfect for pip

Rocky is just lowering the tone of a lovely name! I knew a baby called Rocco though hmmm not such a fan, and -no lie- a family who had a Ben, Polly and Felix (errrrmm pet lovers much who wanted a dog, parrot & cat instead?!)

My friend said if she had a boy it would be called Hugo, if she had a girl it would be Matilda......she had a girl thankfully!!!!!

okay that poor child.. the names dont even go/

what did u say to her about it in the end? x

I think whatever parents call their children people get used to it in the end.

My cousin called her lil girl Lucia (lou-che-a). When she was pg she refused to discuss names as she said she had picked one that she new people would try and talk her out of, and once baby was here no one would be so rude as to comment like they do when you are pg (We are all guilty of that! ) When I 1st heard it I didnt really like it and everyone mis-pronounced it Lucy-a. She is named after a place in Italy where they lived when she was conceived when they were missionarys (Just incase you think she is a chav ). I also didnt think it went too well with her older brothers name - Jack. It was quite a contrast.

Now I think the name suits her and i cant imagine her being anything else. Maybe all the rockys/rocco's will grow into their names!

did she specify thats how it should be pronounced? I never get why people pick a name and then change how its said...cos everyone who is told their name will spell it wrong, and anyone that reads it will say it wrong (I think most would say Loo sha like the island!)!

My friend called her boy Louis...but its said Lewis!

Yup she stated that. I got the text from her at 2am the night she was born saying name and weight and thought she was called lucy-a. Was only the next day when she came home that I realised I was wrong. Took our family weeks to be able to say it without stopping to think about it! I think the italians do pronounce it like that and as both her had her husband have degrees in italian from st andrews I cant really argue with them lol! Its some saint in italy too & theres a santa lucia day in Italy around xmas.

I know worse mispronounciations but... brother and sister in their 30's - cheryl and dylan. Straightforward? No. They are called cher-elle & die-lan! But spelt cheryl and dylan. Weird people!

........and there's people with silly names like 'Carmelita'! I mean wtf?!

loving the 1st name...middle name not so much
my cousine's just called her baby ashton
tracie, you shouldnt have posted the name you have for your boy...i think some ladies on here might steal it x

See id have pronounced it lu chee a. Im guilty of saddling my lil one with a name that will eternally be mispronounced. And the next ones bound to be the same. For all that ive chosen them as celtic names i just know c will spend her life being caitlin or kayleigh cos they are more well known and awen is bound to end up Aywen or Owen!

ahhh but thats people not reading it...I really don't think Caelyn can be said any way other than the correct way?!

i like carmelita, its really pretty!
x

You say that Lisa but I've been called Cornelia before?!

Thanks Niccsy I'm lucky that I only hear it when I've been naughty or if someone doesn't know me well enough to call me Lita

well they are just dumbass twits then...anyone that actually reads your name can see what it is!

Mario you have a better grasp of language than us plebs I would never in a million years have got lucia's name right first read.

Im still not convinced im pronouncing awen right in my head tbh. Is it ah-when or A-when?

How the heck can they get cornelia???

Her own uncle calls her Kayleen. Why dont i just buy her a trailer in the southern US and teach her to chew tobacco and wrestle crocodiles!

Snoops its Ah Wen

I think you should ask your friend if she's serious? If she is you should mention the poor child is likely to be picked on with shite names !!
My cousin has Ashton - I like

Rocky is a feeking joke! Does she have a staff bull terrior called diesel, wear velour tracksuits and live in Dagenham, Essex ???

Sorry that's a crap name!

Mario
Is caelyn pronounced K lyn or c lyn
In my head I have k lyn I was right on new bumps pronouciation (sp)

Caelyn is Kay-Lin Emma

Caitlin is Caitlin Emma Lauren! Nearly the same... but so not in your eyes
