Hey everyone,

So, I'm pregnant (due in late August) and it's a girl! Yay for girls! You've all got to tell me what you think of the name Belladonna Rose honestly, okay? By the way, I would rarely call her Belladonna; I'm going to choose either Belle/Bella or Donna and pretty much stick with that one as what she'll go by. Here are my three reasons for choosing it:

1. My favourite band is Belle & Sebastian. I want to name my daughter after them, but Belle is kind of... too short and too common for me.

2. (Yes, I am a massive fangirl. I can't help it!) One of my favourite fictional characters and role models ever is Donna(tella) Moss from The West Wing and I would love to name my daughter after such a strong, beautiful, compassionate, intelligent and funny woman (yeah, I'm aware she's not real!), but I'm not big on the name Donna by itself.

3. It means "beautiful woman" and what girl wouldn't like to be called that?

So yes, there you are. Rose as the middle name because it's my best friend's name. Do you guys think it's all right?

I like how it flows... Belladonna Rose. But actually, I think Belladonna is too long and I know this medecine called Bellaisadonna and it reminds me of that.

Donna Rose.. is the better choice, I think.

Hmmm, yeah, Donna Rose is very pretty too... But ha, yeah, medicine - not the best connotations. Thanks for your input!
