Hi ! New babies in family............

I have been on bedrest for about 12 years now.No really but it certainly seems that way.You may remember that I have triplets-Liza,Christian,and Daisy.I am pregnant with another set of triplets due in March.We first were told we had twins but an in depth ultrasound proved triplets.We were not going to find out the sexes but were acidentally told by the tech.Christian will be the only boy in the family.Yes,3 more girls.I am happy but soo tired of bedrest at my Mom's home.The kids are here almost every day.Mark is having a hard time working,taking care of the kids and me.
My sister-in-law that I wrote about before($1000 stroller,round crib,etc) had her baby which was suppose to be a boy but turned out to be a girl.He was going to be Jack(they thought they were very cutting edge with this name.They have no kids so don't know how popular Jack has become).Anyway they have a girl named Zhevia (Zaa-vee-ah)Zoe.My mother-in-law has taken to calling her ZeeZee which makes the parents nuts.I guess it is an OK name just a bit unusual for me.
My sister had a baby girl named Natalie Noelle on Christmas day.My niece had a baby girl on 11/22 named McKenzie Rae.My cousin had a baby girl named Caroline Frances(Frances after my deceased Aunt).I like Natalie and Caroline.
So now we are looking for names.Christian likes Tsunami,Ranger and Pilot.Go figure !
Liza likes Jill,Jane,and Jamie or Blossom,Buttercup,and Brittney.Daisy likes Lilly,Violet,and Camillia.I think Jill,Jane,Lilly,and Camille might have a chance.
MIL still wants Rosa or Harriet.Notice Zhevia Zoe has neither name.
Suggetions ? We like traditonal,British sounding names.
Thanks !

WOW and CONGRATS on the triplets AGAIN! WOW~ and i thought it was hard picking just 1 name! :) SO, Christian, Liza, and Daisy.

some with a chance...Jill,Jane,Lilly,and Camille. i DO like Camille and Lilly. Sorry, kinda against your mil's suggestions, unless you use Rosa as a mn?

How about some more for you...kayla, annika, alyssa, (sorry, don't know what british names are), courtney, carly, isabelle, victoria, farrah, amanda, samantha

from yours...Camille Rosa and Lilly Harriet? they would sound good and use your girls'suggestions then you and dh could pick the 3rd girls name together? also think Amanda Jane would sound good with the other girls!

I do like Penelope.

Oh my goodness! Congratulations! I can't believe you will have two sets of triplets! And how long have you been on bed rest for so far? And how much further do you have to go? Amazing, amazing, amazing.

I think we like similar types of names. I'm big on the traditional or old-fashioned names, British style. (My daughter's name is Charlotte Daisy.) I remember your very funny rant about your mother in law. First she was telling everyone how stodgy you are and why don't you use a modern name like Sage, and then she's foisting the name Harriet on you. I don't personally think Harriet's a bad name, but it is absolutely completely on the opposite end of the spectrum from Sage.

Here are some names from my list that I think you might like:
Cordelia
Rosamunde (uses the Rosa, if you want to appease that tyrant MIL)
Flora
Beatrice or Beatrix
Virginia
Amabel or Mabel
Constance
Patience

Oh, gosh, there are many more, but I can't think of them for some reason. I'll try to post back more later, if only for your amusement while you are on bedrest.

Good luck! Stay down!

How about Camille Rosa, Lily Catherine & Caroline Jane? ( I say Lily because Lilly is a drug company)
