Having thought that we were choosing between [name_u]Vivien[/name_u] and [name_f]Elisabetta[/name_f] if a girl for most of the pregnancy, a late contender won out in the end! We first thought of [name_f]Olympia[/name_f] when we’d gone past the due date and thought we might have a leapling; it seemed a good way to acknowledge something that happens only every four years. Leap day came and went but we couldn’t shift the baby from its comfy spot or the name from our minds. Due to tenacity we started referring to the baby as ‘the limpet’ and it all started to click into place. The speedy nature of her eventual arrival confirmed what we almost already knew: [name_u]Vivien[/name_u] and [name_f]Elisabetta[/name_f] weren’t right for her and she could be nothing but [name_f]Olympia[/name_f].
Thank you so much to all of the berries who have helped me work through the various options at different stages - the help from this site has been invaluable. X
