We knew somebody who named his daughter Madeleine Genevieve B (can't remember!) so she would forever after be MGB!

Pettalus Did your back ever recover from the Austin Healey Sprite encounter? grin

Son would be Oberau (Austria)

Daughter would be Sandsend (North Yorkshire)

Humbertbear Sat 23-Jan-16 09:08:56

Mill Hill - daughter
Teignmouth - son

My son was mortified when we told him how and where he was conceived. We should have kept it secret.

Alima Sat 23-Jan-16 09:08:36

pettalus - triplets?

rubysong - I know Kelly Close, did a few babysitting stints there, nice new houses, at least they were 40 years ago!

Granjura Clapham Junction? Not actually the station itself I assume ...wink

hildajenniJ Sat 23-Jan-16 08:28:09

Daughter would be called Sorrento (quite nice really)

Son would be Hearth Rug ( in front of the fire). Crosby-on-Eden.

DH and I would have the same name, Brampton. Would be rather confusing.
