Promise I will not get offended and I know it does not matter what others think however would like to know reactions to the name Florence Elizabeth. One minute I love it the next I'm just not sure!!! And have not got a clue for a boy, any ideas? PS would probably call her Flora for short! Thanks Jane xx

At the end of the day go with whatever name you love! :) My little girl is Erin and a few people turned their nose at it at first but now everyone thinks no other name would suit her! This time Im loving Brooke or Noah x

Don't worry about what anyone thinks I think its nice to have a name thats abit different, Ive tried to do that with all my children. I decided on Noah or my eldest before it became popular but its everywhere now. Rebecca, Noah 4, Elijah 2 and Martha 5 weeks.
