Not quite name regret

I do remember your love for Hazel now, but in trying to think what you might choose, while waiting to hear, it was Stella I thought of. I remembered your post about the stars.

This was beautifully affirming, thank you lovely.

@tori101 your reply made me cry! I remember your Rose/Lilia dilemma well and did think of you. I’m almost certain, in fact I AM certain that [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is her name, it’s just my own grief, name ocd and bewilderment I’m dealing with. I also feel content to have chosen something that pleases everyone, but bitter I didn’t get my own way, haha.

@EloiseT

there is something more zippy and free about Stella.

I agree with this!

@hellobanjo

Im feeling like I would take any reasonable name right now if he would just sleep longer than a couple hours without being held.

I feel you on this! [name_f]Flora[/name_f] had two modes in her first 12 months of life, screaming the house down or sleeping on someone’s body. So far [name_f]Stella[/name_f] is rocking the long bassinet naps and I am just as baffled by her chilledness as I am about her name haha.

Thank you everyone for your lovely and helpful reflections xx
