Thing is, my initials are MAD. But my parents didn’t want that to be my initials. So on my birth certificate, I’m AMD. But I’m called and known by the name beginning with M. And if I was ever to have to write my initials, I’d write MD. No one ever includes their middle name in their initials so I think the way my parents did it was so pointless 😭😭😭
We had this pointed out to us after our eldest son and registering his birth, it was pointed out to us that his initials could be seen as a bit dodgy, JIS 😅
Have you accidentally said her name in vlogs/other videos and had to edit it out? If so, it would be SO cute to do a video of all these edited out clips once she's here 🥰
I’m not even pregnant but have a full list of names on my phone😂 when I’d been with my partner literally a month I had to check he liked my names as it’s pretty make or break😂😂

Unfortunately I lost my baby at 17 weeks, so I'll leave this one for someone who needs it. But I am so happy for you two, the baby is going to be well spoilt! X
I feel like i'm just watching one of those conversations every couple has which is so cute. My Fiance and I will sit up many evenings discussing the baby names we love.
James making the joke about his dad opening the baby name book and picking the first name he saw, and that being EXACTLY HOW I WAS NAMED!😂 Love you guys!💜
My first son is named after his dad, I call him TJ, his dad calls him a shortened version and his paternal extended family call him by his full name. He’s f5 and doesn’t get confused. My second son I went through every list I could find and presented it to my husband and he picked Jasper, after a while I decided that it was more of a name for a cat so we changed it to Kasper. People have tried to shorten it to Kas but we just correct them and say ‘it’s Kasper’. My brother is expecting a baby soon and him and his wife used an app called Kinder, you download it on both your phones and it presents you with a load of names for you to swipe if you like it or not, when you both match a name, it’ll add it to a short list. They highly recommend it. Girls names we’ve had picked out since before we got pregnant with our first, one option we loved, it’s a name I heard in my school but I didn’t really know this person but loved the name, the second one I’ve always loved from a film and then a UA-cam I love has this name. You can pick names up literally anywhere! And yes, they can change when baby gets here. The day TJ was born, I had name regret because I didn’t think he looked like a TJ 😂 but I wasn’t going to change it. However, he suits his name so well now and in so glad I didn’t change it. Naming a child has to be the hardest thing!
I used to be a secondary school teacher and choosing baby names was so hard as I didn’t want to be reminded of certain students🤣. I did have ideas for my 3 children’s names, but found the names just came into my head once they were born. My youngest child is called Ella, she’s 18 now. As a cautionary tale, a friend of ours fond out the gender of their first child, which was a girl. They decorated the nursery with silver and lilac butterflies and it turned out to be a boy🤣🤣🤣.
Omg my reaction when James said Morgan🤣 so many times people told me my name was “a boys name” and I’ve never heard my name come up in a baby names video... I was like GET IN, GO ON JAMES!!!! Haha love you both and can’t wait to meet baby girl 👶🏼 xx
When my little sister was born, her name is Bethany. And my Dad called her”Bethany Boo” as her nickname. Boo stuck, and it’s all we ever call her. When someone says Bethany it sounds so weird 😂
I only went by kristin in school but I dont like my name so I go by kris, when I was dating my husband he said kristin and I almost cried I was like what did I do wrong (because my mom and grandmother use it if i was in trouble as a kid) and my husband was like nothing , so i was like well why would u call me that he was just like becauss it's your name . The 1 and only time he has called me by kristin lol
This conversation is making me so broody!!! I'm 22 and in my last year of uni so now is just not the time to be having a baby, but I am so invested in your journey! x
I’m probably not going to have kids for years, but I love thinking about future baby names, and I have the same strategy and opinions on a name like James! 🤩😍
My Daughter is called Evan and her fiancés sister, had a Son and called him Evan oh and their surname is Evans, so when she marries him she will be Evan Evans, lol 😂😂 xxx
I feel so honoured that Anna made the list, I always thought my name was boring so it’s nice to get some recognition 😂 ALSO loving the Schitt’s Creek reference 😂👍
I have a list on my phone, not because I’m pregnant or planning on children anytime soon, but every time I hear a name I love I’m like 🥰 incase I forget!
Choosing a name is so hard, you don’t know how many people you know and how many people you dislike until naming your baby ahah. With my boys we went with names we liked. But with my daughter her name has a meaning. She’s called Luna-Faith and sooooo many people kept telling us it was a dogs name. But when I was pregnant with her at my first scan I was told she had no heartbeat so I was booked in for a D&C a week later but I accepted a reassurance scan before the op. I always had a little bit of Faith that they got it wrong. And they did!! My baby girl had a heartbeat! I couldn’t believe it so many people go through with the op without a reassurance scan. So glad I had one. A few months before I fell pregnant with her we lost a baby at 12weeks and I knew something was wrong then as I had a gut feeling and this time I didn’t. So that is where her name comes from ☺️ My beautiful rainbow baby is now 9months. IG: tishamaria xx
Okay , but did anyone else jump the first time the person walked past the window and have to rewind 😂😂😂 I jumped a little then remembered they were having their kitchen redone
Ahh, my mums name is Mari, and she never hears her name anywhere, so she’ll be so pleased that a baby will have her name as her middle name aha, loved the video guys x 💓🤣
I have never understood it! I think James is a much nicer name! Anyone i know who’s name is James but call themselves Jimmy i refuse to use it 😂 i always say James
Both me and my partner lost our grandma’s in the beginning of this year, they were both called Margaret and we are praying our first born will be a girl so we could give her the middle name of Margaret! So special😇
After discovering the most revolting forum in existence, I have decided to do my bit to counter the nasty, disgusting, sickening negativity floating about by liking 20 of your videos and commenting on them all. You deserve EVERYTHING you have in life and you are both beautiful, wonderful people. I hope you never ever let sad, sick, lonely, unwell people affect your shines. Lots of love X
My son is Morgan. He's the only one in school with that name & lots of people commented on how nice it is and different to the more traditional names our other boys have.
You guys gave me the idea for Amelia for our little one on the way! We find out if its a boy or girl on Monday (April 5th) and if its a girl that’s what we’re using!
As a 24 year old Madison, I was so excited when you said my name because it was soooo rare when I was younger. Then you started saying about shortening it to Mads, which is what everyone in my life calls me 😂 james: why on earth would I call my daughter Mads? Carys: “Yo Mads...no” 😂xx
I feel so unprepared, there you two are "knowing" your babys name and having a list of ones you like but aren't the name but here I am pregnant with my second at 33weeks and having no idea for either gender as we are having a suprise baby 😂🤦♀️x Insta: Yaatees
My fiancé and I have a list of full names for our kids hahah and one of those will most likely be our future children's names! I think pre-thought baby names are more common than people think haha I love watching this journey with you guys!
When my sister was pregnant, we all knew, the name was going to be Tom. When he was born, she said- say hi to Arthur😅 He is 8 now and he said that he would love a brother named Tom. @austriic
I love how their name choices are still somewhat common and not out of this world. I don't really get the urge to call your child a name that's never been heard. I love all the names here xxx
We named our daughter after 2 rounds of fertility treatment and her name is Mia Grace, which Mia means mine and grace means beloved and wanted and she truely was wanted! She gets the nicknames Moo, Moo Moo and Mimi 💗
My nieces name Is Maria and my auntie and uncle call her Mimi, I think anyones nicknames are completely dependant on those around them❤My name is Grace and with it only being one syllable I have always had a struggle with nicknames, from Gracie, to Grakie to Gracie Lou. The names people refer to you by are your identity in different ways. I appreciate this video a lot
My second comment for this video but I would love another video like this one but for baby boy names that we won’t be using (obviously as you are having a baby girl, but I would still love to hear them!!)💖
Am I the only one that was dying when James said ‘First one, Prunes, oh wait that’s the shopping list’ 😂😂😂😂
Literally!,
We conceived our daughter after 2 rounds of IVF and she’s called Evelyn, which just so happens to mean ‘wished for baby’ 🥰
Congratulations! Evelyn is a stunning name ☺️
@@amaryl23 Thank you 🥰 x
My names Evelyn, and i’m an IVF twin 🥰
@@Evelyn-om2us Aw that’s so sweet! 💕 IVF is a miracle x
congratulations !! love the name Evelyn 😍
“Doesn’t look like an Alison “ omg I’m dying hahahaga
As long as your chosen name doesn’t start with a B because her initials would be BMW. Always have to think about initials 😂
Thing is, my initials are MAD. But my parents didn’t want that to be my initials. So on my birth certificate, I’m AMD. But I’m called and known by the name beginning with M.
And if I was ever to have to write my initials, I’d write MD. No one ever includes their middle name in their initials so I think the way my parents did it was so pointless 😭😭😭

Such a good idea 🥺
I’m so for that!! How cute would that be as her name announcement video😭💗💗
Omg such a cute idea!!
That's such a good idea!
I love how proud James looked when he said Carys-Anna Rex. Lol!
James’s face when Carys said the name was “sexy” 😂😂😂
The way James looks at carys 🥰
“Anna not that common a name” James, it’s literally one of the most common names in the world hahaha
I think he meant Annabella isn’t common as that’s what they were talking about at the time.. not sure though xx
Idk in a world maybe , but don’t seen much of that name in England tbh x
Not in Germany! I know some old ladies named Anna and my cousin, that´s it. Very nice, though...
@@tanja26.11. it was literally the most popular name in 1997, I know lots of Annas my age 😂
