Had she been a boy, she would have been named after my grandfather, with a name my mother made no secret of hating. Luckily, this was not an issue.
If I were to have another child now (which isn't happening... the factory is closed to production), I'd use the same mother-hated boy's name or Taifer for a girl, which was my great-grandmother's maiden name.
This was perhaps my least interesting post ever.

Dissent. any post that reveals truth about a poster is not boring at all.
So my first kid we know is a boy- the ultrasound was inconclusive but we're both having boy dreams nightly.
Names? I don't even remember the boy name, but the girl name was Hazel Katherine. My Grandma was Hazel. It's a boring old name but so unusual now its actually cool and arty (See Hazel O'Conner- rent the movie Breaking Glass). So Hazel Kate for a girl- but it didn't matter because- WE WERE HAVING A BOY.
wife goes in and the first conclusive ultrasound tells us- It's a girl.
"No you must be mistaken you see we have been having these dreams........."
so now the Hazel thing is not a hypo. My mom tells me my grandma hated her name and we should never name another kid Hazel- others piled on. We changed to Katherine Hazel in the Maternity ward.
if she wants she can go with the middle name before her first group show. But I wish I had stuck- she's more a hazel, or maybe Lucy.
