MORE NEWS FROM Grannylin!!!
Just heard from Grannylin to say that her granddaughter just pipped Declan to the post by arriving last night in Manchester. Her name is Emily and Grannylin will be hot-footing up to see her at the weekend. Unfortunately she couldn't share the news herself as the high winds have wiped out her broadband. and congratulations for new grannies.

When you know what's in store - all that fun, those cuddles, first smiles - it's such a wonderful feeling! [greatbighappyemoticon]

Congradulations to all the new Grandparents and new babies

gracesmum it is hard for those of us who teach isn't it? My lovely daughter in law is now working in a local school and already has 'gone off' one of her favourite names! By the time she needs name for a son or daughter there will be a shortlist of names NOT to be considered.

I've not been keeping up to date with this thread - my goodness! So much has happened . Congratulations to all .

Oh names....what a fraught area! Surely there is room for more than one Marmaduke Toadwinkle in the world? If you like a name - why shouldn't you stick with it?
However, as an ex-teacher, I have been put off certain names by association - say no more!
Belated congratulations to all new g/grannies and grannies
