I'm hoping to have a girl & have already come up with her name. But if my girl turns out to be a boy I have chosen the name Atrayle. The character from The Neverending Story - which happens to be my most favouritest movie in the world! Well I just recently found out that I had been pronouncing the name wrong all my life & it is really Atreyu, lol, however it's too late to change my version! Our girl's name will be Chéyenne & both our grandmothers names will be her middle names. Ashton is a very popular boys name, we already have 3 in our family!

That would've been so cool to watch it on the big screen! It's a classic aye, just like Labrynth & The Dark Crystal..

I went to see neveremding story as well. but the sequels sucked!!!!!! I'm hoping to introduce bubs to the magic of Jim Henson. Oh, for those of you who are interested - the best ever kids movie I've seen is a Japanese movie "my nieghbour Totoro" - Hayao Miyazaki. If you can find it, borrow it, or steal it - do so!

My fave movie of all time has to be The Princess Bride though. It is sooooo cool! When I was a kid we had it on video, and my brother and I know all the words. Then when I was in Australia in April The Princess Bride was screening at this historical theatre near my mum's place, so we went to see it, and it is just as great as an adult as it was when I was a kid!

Oh my gosh...I didnt know that many people knew about The Princess Bride. My cousins had it when we were kids and every time i went to stay, without fail, we would watch it. I'm sure I know all the words off by heart! Great film - also we watched the original Grease and later on Dirty Dancing. They just dont make movies like they used to!!
By the way, we have names picked out for both sexes, as we are not finding out what sex the wee bundle is. Both first names are of great significance to us (especially me) as they follow in my family's line. My partner and I arent married so my surname will be his/her middle name i think and they will have their dads surname.

oooh i loved those movies - my older sisters were all teens in the 80's so i got maximum exposure to all the movies and music...I think the dark crystal is really good! as for the names thing, mike chose Paris Harmony. I like Jasmine Veda, or eden nicole. for a boy i think we liked sage, bailey, xavier, or issac.. but looking at them now, i don't think i would use them lol!
we've also talked about, if we had another girl, we like the names india, or aja (asia).. but then people might think we are naming our kids after counties or something

all really good names. I want to call our baby Ty if its a boy but my husband doesnt like it because its really similar to his middle name Thys (which i love and would really love to have) But there is no way he would let me have that. Im the opposite to you. There are heaps of boys names i like but cant find any girls ones. Im really picky though as We had over 1500 patients on our role and as you can imagine alot of names remind me of kids that wern't the best behaved.

when i was looking at names i couldnt find many i liked but the boys names i did like were tyler, mitchell and zak, girls i like delaney and mckenzie. My husbands son is named after a character in a david eddings book and i have never heard it anywhere else. finding a name for your new baby seemed to be the hardest thing ever, my mum said it wouldnt matter what we called him, he would still grow up and say "why did you call me that, i dont like that name".

how true - i'm worried Paris will grow up and hate her name - its nice, but sometimes it sounds a bit fairy-ish lol. - Paris Harmony. I liked the name tyler.... but tyler taylor would have sounded silly.

its so true that you never want to call your baby a name that you know from your past - especailly if you didnt really like the person!! mark and i have always really had pretty much definate names organised but looking thru name books just to be nosey there were heaps that he liked and i didnt and vice versa. Also, some people say that deciding on names too early can be bad as by the time its born, quite often your sick of it and change names anyway!
Got 19wk scan on wednes morning and am real nervous.

Re getting sick of the name - i was told before i had bub that i should go outside and yell out the name as if i was calling the kid already, that way i would be able to tell if it was a name that i wouldnt get sick of, it worked too, i eliminated quite a few names. funny tho standing on the porch yelling out to an invisible child.

LOL - I've heard that too, but I wasn't game enough to try it - my neighbours might have really thought I'd gone nuts (they already suspected it!).
Good luck with your scan Vangelitsa. I relly enjoyed seeing Maya swimming around, and by 19 weeks you can see all the bits - arms, legs etc.

i had my 12/13 wk n/t scan last friday. i couldnt belive that it really looked just like a baby, kicking away, although i still cant feel it. It was amazing to see what i had created, (almost made me cry), cant wait till my 18-20 wk scan.
Although after i have already been to 3 scans (1st-dating but to early, 2nd dating at 9wks, 12-13wk n/t) i have found that some of the ladies who scan are better then others. i found myself with my second scan i had a lady who did the scan without telling me anything, i had to wait for the mail to see how far along i was. Then for the 1st & 3rd scan i had a lady who talked the whole way through, commentating and making sure we knew wat we were looking at and pointed out all the parts, it was amazing. i think for the next scan i will be asking for the talkative lady.
