Please call it a nice name. A quaker name, perhaps.
Grace, Faith, Hope, Joy, etc.
I am not a quaker, but have always thought them to be really nice. Please do not lumber it with a ridiculously silly name like "Sky" or "Tracey".
Obviously I have worked entirely to the assumption that it is going to be a girl. No idea why.

I know people named of the others, but never anyone called Saffron. It sounds like a type of spice used in oriental dishes.
But please, whatever you do don't name your child after the place where you did it (be it Brooklyn, Paris, Manchester, London or whatever street you live in) or by some stupidly random name like Blanket.
They will probably live to regret it!

Go for Welsh - sod the quaker thing.
My parents, bless them, gave me a Welsh middle name out of a 1930s film about depression, poverty and disaster. I think I'm named after the sick kid that died.
Saffron?! Think Saffy in Absolutely Fabulous - she wasn't christened that. Although that character has slightly marred the name, and I admit it is a bit *too* posh really. And it wouldn't go with my name.Chris wrote:Saffron?DAS wrote:They are quite nice names actually.
