    Lol. My cravings are vimto, or angina and ham sandwiches lol.

    Our name short list is currently Isaac , milo or remy. Isaac is forerunner but it's 37th in popular list and I worry that's too popular.

    37th isn't popular at all in terms of whether he's likely to share his name with classmates. You only really run this risk if you go top ten. If you pick a name that's 37th you'll be looking at about 0.5 of boys being called this in any one year. That's not popular.

    How do you pronounce Remy?

    Was meant to be orangina. Stupid iPhone auto correct lol.

    You eat orangina sandwiches? Aren't they a bit soggy?

    Anyone else getting rib pain? Baby boy seems to have wedged his feet under rib cage on left side and it's constantly tender

    Yeah. Thankfully it's not too bad but my ribs around my back really ache some days plus I get a sharp pain when I sneeze!

    Lol. It's pronounced pretty much the way it looks rehm-ee. It's a unisex name. Think hot girl doctor in house or gambit from x men lol


    Im not great at math. So 37 t isn't that popular that really swings me towards it. We actually liked miles but were going to shorten to milo but I can't say miles. My silly northern Irish accent!
    No not orangina and Ham sandwiches. I tend to keep them separate lol. :)
    love you lots like jelly tots :o

    I thought Myles was an anglicized form of Malachy? Could be wrong though I'm not Irish, just live here :o

    I love the NI accent! I shared an office with a guy with a beautiful accent from NI. I used to get him to say 'cur' (as in dog) and 'care' over and over because they sounded exactly the same. And 'peshwari naan'. That's a great one to get NI people to say. And 'iris' because it sounds like 'arse'.

    I've just read back this post and realised it makes me sound a bit loopy.

    I got some vouchers through from Boots Parenting Club this morning. I got a changing bag for buying a pack of Pampers Newborn, an Avent microwave steriliser with a BPA free bottle and 2 BPA free anti colic feeding bottles for 22.80, a saving of 46 quid, along with double points. Most baby stuff is 3 for 2 at the moment. I got some other vouchers too but they are valid til the end of July and I think DH was a bit horrified at first sight of nipple covers and breast pumps so thought it best not to push him too far on the first baby buying outing...
    I have had many Light Bulb Moments. The trouble is someone keeps turning the bulb off :o

    Nope all research done suggests German and Latin origins. I just have a problem saying my L sounds with s after it it comes out like miylshe lol. I just can't get the sound out. Oh is English so every name we come up with has to be said in both accents before being short listed!
    love you lots like jelly tots :o

    I never noticed the iris thing I just said it out loud lol. My oh makes fun of me cos apparently when I say wheels and Wales it sounds identical. Sound totally different to me. Baby is gonna have an odd accent lol

    When my OH says "Bear" it sounds like "Brrrr"

    I'm not too fond of the N.I accent, even worse is a Belfast accent. :eek: hideous :(

    Southern Irish though, I love. Yumyum.
