If you liked Captain Jack on Doctor Who then you'll probably like the show, since it revolves around him. I think it gets better in the second season. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/3#post-1983815 Sun, 14 Dec 2014 09:44:39 +0000 jedeve 1983815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: is it good? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/3#post-1979749 Thu, 11 Dec 2014 00:38:38 +0000 Arden 1979749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: @Mrs. Garland: Start watching Torchwood.

We have almost finished new season 7 and I don't know what we will do with ourselves! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/3#post-1979608 Wed, 10 Dec 2014 22:06:34 +0000 Mrs. Garland 1979608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jedeve: Um, you would be my hero if you named your baby after a Doctor Who character! I think Oswin is perfect! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/3#post-1979604 Wed, 10 Dec 2014 22:04:16 +0000 jedeve 1979604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oswin...I love it but I don't think DH would let me name a baby after a Doctor Who character. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/3#post-1963886 Sat, 29 Nov 2014 15:27:14 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1963886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Avery<br /> Linnea<br /> Caitlin<br /> Natalie</p> <p>Ethan<br /> Isaac<br /> Landon </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/2#post-1963730 Sat, 29 Nov 2014 10:28:06 +0000 Astro Bee 1963730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Alexis, Alexandria, Ariana, Adriana for girls... lots of "A" names, lol! I also like the name Darcy, and may push for it for next time, if we have a girl. The problem with the first two is that my wretched cousin (1 out of 35 first cousins) and his even more wretched wife just named their little girl Lexi, so it's a little close. Of course, we never see them, so it's not a big deal for me, but our moms are close and live in the same town, so it might get confusing. </p> <p>Thankfully, girl names are not going to be an issue for awhile as we're having a boy. So this list is going to be very helpful. I do really like the name Aidan, but I think my husband may veto it since I once, very briefly, dated an Aidan. Also, an old gf of his always compared him to Aidan from SATC, and then cheated on him just as Carrie did. But honestly, both were 8 and 10 years ago, respectively. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/2#post-1963453 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 20:59:29 +0000 matador84 1963453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Holden-sounds horrible with our last name<br /> Hattie-loved the old world charm of it and also my great grandmas name, but also MIL mother name, so nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/2#post-1963444 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 20:13:42 +0000 lady baltimore 1963444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Annika - DH and I both like it, but he rhymes it with Monica, I rhyme it with Danica, and neither of us will budge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/2#post-1951576 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 00:32:17 +0000 anandam 1951576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Girl - I vetoed Ivy, Hazel.

I love it but DH isn't fully on board yet. However, he basically named DS so I get a lot more pull on this one. :) </p> <p>@loki: If it makes you feel better, I feel like mine, DH's , and DS's names all sort of rhyme. They all end with "an". :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-swap/page/2#post-1942803 Thu, 13 Nov 2014 11:17:26 +0000 youboots 1942803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dutch- my dogs name, would have been perfect for a boy.<br /> Marloe- the last name of a unpopular former work associate of my family<br /> Leila- used<br /> Brixton- my nephews name, it was never on my list but I love it.<br /> Sterling- a family name that I would love for a boy or girl- M nixed it. </p>
