We decided a while ago on Calum :)

Calum Ben Murphy or Calum Ben James Murphy?
 
Love the name Calum, that's what I would have called my daughter or Conner but we know too many now so can't pick it this time round! Also James is a fav of mine but my nephew is called that, we may have it as a middle name though as it's a family name for us.

Connors a nice name! I like that but OH has a nephew Connor.. I think James is a good strong name to have as a middle name :)

I'm so glad you said that, I wouldn't have even thought of that :rofl:
 
yess think of the initials too, kids pick up on anything they can to use against them kids are mean
 
lol!! im glad your glad as i didnt want to offend!! im lisa barbara (bleurgh) and i got lisa borrow-a-bra! :( xx
 
haha i cud handle myself lmao!! its the only 'teasing' i ever got thru the WHOLE of my school yrs so i really shudnt complain lol!! but i defo make a conscious effort to tell ppl seriously think of middle names haha!! madison is madison louise!! nothing milder than that haha!! xx
 
I like calum james murphy without the ben but both are lovely x
 
I actually like it with both middle names, but agree its probably not the best with "bj" as the middle initials (i didn't even spot that at first! haha). So i would vote for Calum Ben Murphy :-) xxx
 
I like that too poxie but we really want to use Ben cause my stepdad chose it, we would have used his name but he hates it lol! So thought it would be nice to let him pick a middle name :) although Calum James Murphy probably sounds the best.

Haha I didn't notice it either! Just as well the other girls did :lol:

Calum James Ben doesn't sound too good so looks like we will be sticking to just Ben! :)

Just had another idea.. James was because it is OH's middle name, his first name is Liam..

Calum Ben Liam Murphy? Too much of a mouthfull??

xxx
 
I feel bad as at the time I didn't realise that Brooke is a B.J (Brooke Jordan) or she is a B.L.T (Brooke Lea Tracey) I didn't want tracey in her name but OH did as its his only sisters name! My poor girl... Or she will get called Broccoli (Brooke Lea).... She is going to hate me!!!

I think i still prefer Calum Ben Murphy - but thats just me. I like Liam, but it does seem like a mouthfull with the other names too. I like Ben because its short and sweet :-). I've been looking at syllables too for choosing names. Calum and murphy each have 2 syllables, so i think ben fits nicely inbetween.

That's just me though hun :-) xxx

Broccoli :lol: awwwww!! I suppose they don't really need to use their middle names too much at school though!
