Silly Names For Unborn Babies?

[cozyjeans.livejournal.com]

My husband and I are expecting our second child, another girl, at the end of May. Unlike with our first baby, we’ve had one hell of a time coming up with a name. My dad, with his weird sense of humor, got tired of us changing our minds and decided to dub the baby George. We have recently settled on a name, but we’re keeping it under wraps, so George has stuck. It’s also spread. Family and friends all call her George. We don’t mind, we think it’s kind of funny, and we don’t think there will be any trouble transitioning to her actual name when she arrives. So, did you all have any silly or funny names for your babies before they were born? My parents called me Baby Huey. I think that’s kind of cute too, and they didn’t seem to have any trouble transitioning to calling me Jennifer after I arrived. I think their biggest issue was that I was supposed to be Steven. Oops. LOL.

My first daughter's in-utero nickname was Midge, and we finally came up with a nickname for the currently gestating girl #2- Smidge!!

My first daughter also had two 'joke' names before we were born, too, because we didn't reveal her name. It drove my sister CRAZY not to know, so I told her to call the baby 'Penelope Gertrude', just because it was a good mouthful. I also had a dream during pregnancy that we named the baby 'Ophelia' with the nickname 'Phelix', so I referred to her as Phelix a lot. Oddly enough, that one kinda grew on me! So far, nobody has asked about baby #2's name, and honestly, my husband and I have barely talked about it. We should probably do something about that (I'm 26 weeks)
