we don't know but we have a boy's name sorted from last time i was pregnant. I have a 2nd cousin called Lily... i'm a bit fanatical about calling my children names that i don't know people in real life are called that.
my girl's name was going to be Emily Rose but a friend at church called her baby that so i can't use it. mand x

A second name is traditionally to remember someon who has passed. Otherwise, their really isn't actually much point to a second name, it's very much a western tradition!
That said I like grace. If you like Tiffany and matt doesn't, what about Grace Tiffany?

tbh, if i was you, i'd still keep look through naming books, websites and write down a list of names you like and what Matt likes. You've still got a while until you're due for you to decide.
It's so easy to get lost in constantly having to present
whatever face you believe a person wants to see rather than your own
I'm not too keen on either of them but remember this is your child :) I'm not a fan of run of the mill names but it may be that in my family we have a variety of traditional and non-traditional naes. I think that Justine sounds a bit of a mature ladies name. I quite like the names Georgia, Ayesha, Keziah and Erin at the moment but my mind changes like the wind ;)
Maybe try language variations on Tiffany and Jane? I like Justine but it's got the history with the Marquis de Sade, and I remember it as a girl from Frankenstein. Then again, pretty much all names are going to be attached to unfortunate people at some point in history, unless you make up and entirely new and original name.
Haha, well I'm not old enough to have actually been alive in their time! That said, I doubt that most people would make negative associations with Justine. What about Janifany? Wait, no...do NOT use that. Tifijane? Justiffany. Okay, I'm no use.
I like Grace and Jane but not so fond of Tiffany or Justine.
Having said that I like the meaning behind the names and a person makes the name not the other way around.
Would you have a nickname if so what e.g. Tiff?
