I loved Willow when i was pregnant many moons ago, but it would sound comical with our surname.

I also loved Alistair for a boy, but I realised it rhymed with my other child's name!

My mum worked with a woman who called her daughter Willow. She turned out to be a really chunky, stocky little red head, about as far removed from willowy as you could get!

i love the name valentina!

i love a lot of ridiculous shakespearean or mythology names that i would never subject an actual child to but think are lovely: orlando, hero, olympia, persephone, antigone, benedict, ophelia etc. it’s probably a good thing i don’t want kids

I loved the name Clementine for a girl but now that’s been ruined by CLEMMIE (mother of daughters infamy) and ‘clammy’ associations

Vada. I’ve loved it ever since I saw My Girl as a kid, but I couldn’t be bothered with all the ‘As in Darth Vader?’ questions

I really wanted to call my October baby girl Autumn but it just seemed too impractical, I couldn't see myself shouting it in a park. I also loved Evangeline and Josephine but maybe too old fashioned. They didn't suit her. For my boy I liked Sawyer or Atticus. He ended up with a completely different name.

I love Dimitri and Alexei but they just wouldn’t work unless you had Russian, or similar, heritage

My cousin who's in her 30's is called Emerald, she really suits it. I definitely wouldn't be shy about naming my daughter it

My son is called Sebastian Xavier. Gorgeous names

I think Celine is sooo beautiful but people would think you’d named your child after Celine Dion

India it’s a beautiful country and a beautiful name , but not one I would choose to be honest..seems a bit exotic for the pale northerners in my family
