A/N: Ron is in bold and Hermione is in normal. Enjoy! :D
Six Months To Go
I've been thinking… what are we going to call her?
Erm, Baby?
Yes, because I'm sure she'd love that. What about when she's forty and working at the Ministry?
Well then she'll just be Miss Weasley, won't she.
(A look.)
Okay, okay, you're right, as always.
(Smug look.)
Any ideas?
I was thinking of a virtue-name, like Serenity.
Serenity?
Yes.
Serenity?
Yes, Serenity.
You want to call our daughter Serenity Weasley?
Honey, you're a little slow today.
It's practically an oxymoron, Hermione!
*****
Five Months And Two Weeks To Go
Maybe we should name her after a relative.
In case you hadn't noticed, you're seriously lacking in female family members, Ron. Percy's already taken Molly and we could hardly call her Ginevra - we'd confuse them.
What about your mum?
You want to call our daughter Jean?
Point taken.
…
What were your grandmothers called?
Gertrude and Doris. I think we should give upon on this idea.
Me too.

Five Months To Go
Muriel.
Hermione, don't even joke about that.
*****
Four Months To Go
(Expression of disgust.) Ginny suggested Arabella.
And while we're at it, wouldn't Spoilt and Brat make such nice middle names.
That's exactly what I said, Sweetie.
*****
Three Months To Go
Nymphadora!
I like it, but having an odd name is normally a drawback. And I speak from experience.
Only if you decide to make friends with not-very-bright Bulgarians.
I'll ignore that comment for now, Ronald, but if you bring that up again you might just find spiders in your shoes. Nymphadora would make a lovely middle name, though.
Whatever you say, Darling.
…
Hermione?
Yes?
You wouldn't really put spiders in my shoes, would you?
*****
Two Months To Go
What about Ruby?
Ugh, no.
I think it's a nice name!
There was a girl at my primary school called Ruby. She used to make fun of my hair… and teeth.
Really, 'Mione, you've got to let go of these old grudges.
How about Emerald, then?
(Shudders.) Slytherin.
Hypocrite.
(Innocent.) What?!
*****
Six Weeks To Go
(Triumphant.) I've got it!
The plague?
What? No, the name.
…
…
Are you going to tell me or not?
(Beaming with pride.) Guess!
How on earth am I meant to do that? Ronald I really don't have time, my meeting is in five minutes.
What's your favourite flower?
Roses, you kn- oh! Rose…
(Still beaming.) And she'll be pretty, like a rose!
How do you know? She might be the ugliest thing on the planet.
I'll still think she's beautiful. That's what parents are for, isn't it? Anyway, she'll be pretty if she takes after you. Me… (makes a face)
I think you're very dashing.
(Kiss.)
It's perfect Ron.
A/N: No offence if I used your name in any of these scenes :D
I hope you enjoyed it, and please review and check out the poll on my profile if you feel like it!
