    I don't hate Tilly and Gus--but I wouldn't use them.  The rest are NMS. 

    Anniversary
    TTC since Jan 2014
    BFP: 1/14; spontaneous m/c at 6w
  • Tilly is cute, but I feel like it belongs in the 80s (or as a pet's name)
    Bernadette is forever associated with BBT for me, hahaha. Nothing wrong with it, but not something I'd consider.
    Philomena is a big fat no, especially with our last name.

    Joel I do kind of like. It might be a consideration if we couldn't compromise on any of the names DH or I like more.
    Barnabas is another big fat no. Just not my cup of tea at all.
    Gus is adorable.

    I would name a cat Gus because it's really cute and I can totally see a fat fluffy kitty being named Gus, but not a child.  The rest are not my style.
