What a gorgeous baby. She does look just like her Mum.
I love the stripey snowsuit thing! Does anyone know where it’s from?

I hope we here about the baby’s name soon, I wonder what they were calling her whilst she didn’t have a name!

Ahhhh, I adore this woman! And her little girl is just precious! So beautiful. And they’ve already started her on stripey clothing! Haha.

I vote for Clara Stella
LOL !

I don’t know what the rules are for homebirths in the USA, but the hospitals are required to file the birth certificate, and since they (or the insurance company) usually wants you out within 24 hours, that doesn’t give you much time to come up with a name.

I love Helena Bonham Carter, but it just… blows my mind to think of her as a mother. Same with Tim Burton. It’s just… odd. Haha.

J.M. you are right, We live in Ohio and I know when our 3rd child was born we couldn’t decide btwn Jake and Jack and the nurse told us we had to know before the next morning, or we couldn’t leave! She was NOT kidding! (Jack won!)

In New Zealand you are allowed 2 months to register your child’s birth. I think that is plenty of time to make a decision about a name.

Awww!! Just look at that little face XDD
How can you not just LOVE that little face!!
In fact, their kinda pulling the same face, like mother, like daughter already
Cuties.

Billy and Bella? Kinda catchy and cute! Could be. Who knows! Cute baby though!

My nephew didn’t have a name for 3 days but before they left the hospital they were told they had to name him or else they couldn’t take him home. I don’t know how true that story is but I know they rushed to find a name for him quickly! They were young maybe they were just told the birth certificate had to be filled out with at least a last name but they thought they meant full name. I am not sure.

I don’t think it is that strange…different, but not weird or bad in any way. Why wouldn’t you want to get to know the little person before you give them the name they will have the rest of their lives.
That said, I think whatever the name is will be shockingly normal…Billy Ray is just so simple, you would have expected something crazy for them…but something simple is kind of unusual for them )
