I have a "weird" name myself so I don't like super traditional or super weird names.

Fave girl names are - Daisie and Mori. I like Heloise for a middle name
Fave boy name is Gus. Boys names are harder to choose!

nate
joshua
finlay
george
lennie
alfie
brady

sophie

Pickminy · Feb 10, 2020

We gave our children strong, traditional names as we don't like quirky or out there names. We also have a long surname that people are forever getting wrong so didn't want our children going through life constantly correcting their first and last name. One of our children has a very popular name, he's 10 now and despite being in 2 nurseries and 1 school has never had another 1 in his class and there is only 1 other one in his whole school.
Boys names I like:
Arthur
Lenny
Jack
Thomas

Girls names:
Florence
Charlie
Georgie
Lyla
Edie
Betsy

It is funny as I am childfree (choosing not to have children) but definitely have names picked out that I like.

Same! We usually have names that have been in our family before. I love Lily Alice (great-nanny and grandmas name) and Thomas Alfred (brother/uncles are called Thomas and Alfred was my Grandads name).

My problem would be not choosing a name that an animal I’ve owned/know has.

annanuttall · Feb 10, 2020

Can't have children but before we knew that we did already picked out our baby name:

Girl: Nioami
Boy: Xander

thegreencow · Feb 10, 2020

Girls: Phoebe, Sophie, Renee, Milena, Sydney, Flossie, Robyn, Evie, Charlotte, Grace, Ivy, Ella

Boys: Jasper, Caleb, Ethan, Dylan, Paris, George

Pickminy · Feb 10, 2020

Kit is another boys name I like but wouldn't use.

LittleMy · Feb 10, 2020

For a girl I like:

Elodie
Aubrey
Remy
Mira
Drew
Hazel

Boys; my own two, which I won’t say here. I found boys names difficult as I didn’t like many, and girls names I liked changed like the weather lol. Once settled on our boys names though that was it. We had the names picked before they were here.

Milehammer · Feb 10, 2020

We have an Arthur but our other options were -
Elliot
Sunny
Ezra

Girls-
Sophie
Eden
Olive

I have 2 boys named Aiden and Liam. For a girl we had picked Emily or Emmy Josephine.

mimic93 · Feb 10, 2020

I have a seriously long list of childrens names, and have now decided I don't want kids!

I like quite unusual names so;

for girls etta is my favourite. I like Dorothy (dottie), clementine, olive and daisy (I genuinely have about 25 names on my list but that's a good mix of odd to normal haha)
for boys I like tommy, jasper, rex (until Stacey Solomon used it) and felix

...maybe its a good job i'm not having kids

Immoslips · Feb 10, 2020

Names I like:

Girls: Harriet, Sophie and Charlotte
Boys: Oliver, William

Names I don't like : Jacob, Mason, Harrison, fruits (apple/ peaches) anything that's a shortened version of a name (lottie, Ollie etc), double barrelled names (Ava-mai etc)
