I love Rufus and Wilfred!

Or girls... Matilda, Harriet, Pearl...

Like all your girl names too!

Thanks all - love Eliza. Would rather avoid anything really popular, which means probably not Oliver (though I do like it). Dulcie is nice but not quite right I think.

clumsymum I think I need you to help me with baby names! I have a Matilda and am considering Beatrix for DC2. Also just saw Arlo on your other thread and love it! Inspire me with more please...!

Sorry OP Blush - love Felix and Oscar from your list and quite like Jemima but can't escape puddle duck associations...

From your list
Jude
Jemima (love Iris too but doesn't roll as well with Rufus).

How about Otis or Jocasta?

(you're not in Brighton are you OP?)

Love Jude and Iris. perfect names. who cares how well they 'go' with Rufus, although I think they do sound lovely together.

Thinking of the Wainrights, Rufus' sister is Martha.

Jude, Iris and Rudy (but not rufus)

Those are all names from the Law Frost Famiglia

How about a colour theme since Rufus means red?

Iris (blue)
Daisy/Pearl/Alba/Quita (white)
Duncan/Jasper (brown)
Chryssa (gold)
Sylvia/Sterling
Saffron, Coral, Heather, Hazel, Violet, Willow, Fern
