Doesnt Robbie Williams have a daughter called Teddy?I really like Teddy for a girl by the way, I don’t even consider that quirky.

I don't think Teddy is an unusual name, although I would say it's far more common in the UK as a boys name rather than a girls name. Same with Grey. I don't think Grey suits a girls name - it works better as a boys name.
She mentioned she likes 'Rae' as a name for a girl. Luna Rae would have worked better as a name for Grey. Or even Luna Grey. Grey Luna just doesn't work for me. Hey, at least she didn't go with Grey Rae.
Agree re Grey. Lots of these weird names do grow on you if you know a child with the name. I feel like Navy (was that not also on the shortlist?) would have done better as it doesn't have the dreary associations of Grey. I can't think of any positive connotations to Grey. Nice one Lily Whinehouse.Yeah, Grey is just a very depressing name to me.
Names that are traditionally “nicknames” are now very popular as first names. I suppose people think “why bother with Theodore or Edward when you can just call your child Teddy.”
Although I personally really like ‘old’ proper names and having the option of a nickname (or several) rather than using the nickname alone.
Grey is really the most miserable name. What can you shorten that to? It’s so devoid of personality (like Lily).
Especially since she was so aggressive towards any comments about pregnancy before she had Grey. Let's not forget the "don't make me get out the contraceptive pills!!!" stories when anyone dared ask her about kids. I haven't checked the timeline but some of those must have been when they were already trying. Why is she so open about it this time around? Either she's already pregnant or then she's simply convinced that it will happen again. Guess no one told her about secondary infertility.I watched her Q & A and she really sounds like she's already pregnant with baby #2? Asking for names that match Grey, talking about being prepared for her body to change, etc. I don't think she is, but it's so weird to speak like that.
Or "Hon" .I can’t wait until her niece Honey is an adult, in the working world and her co-workers, who presumably will have even more awareness of what constitutes office harassment in the next 15-20 years, have to go around calling her “Honey”.
Soren and Asa are a whole lot better than Bailey, Honey and Rocco. If I was in a park and heard somebody calling 'Bailey, Honey, Rocco,' I would for sure think they were calling their dogs!
Yeah, short for TheodoraDoesnt Robbie Williams have a daughter called Teddy?
one of my friend’s dog is named Bailey. No joke.
Guys I’m sorry to tell you the name of Carly’s son is definitely ACER. (Proof attached) It is NOT Asa! Yes I know it’s hard to believe but the Martin sisters’ taste in names really is THAT bad! We have Acer and Soren (Carly); Bailey, Honey and Rocco (Jojo); Grey and ??? (Lily). Then again what did you expect from someone whose middle name is Pebbles (chosen by her sisters).

Yeah, I have known quite a few Baileys (dogs not children!)
