Linguaphile · 28/08/2014 10:27

We're planing to try for baby 3 in a few months, so I'm gearing up my name lists again. We have a Vivienne and a Philippa (Pip and Vivi) so far. Which is your favourite from each list (or do you have an alternative we might like)?

Girls:
Felicity
Georgina (nn Georgie)
Claudia
Ottilie
Agnes
Annemarie (nn Annie)
Rosalind

Boys:
Timothy
Felix
Robert
Victor
Hugo
Edmund
Alistair
Maxwell

Felicity and Robert

I like Georgina and Claudia, and Alistair and Hugo with your other children's names'

SomeSunnySunday · 28/08/2014 10:52

I like all of them (especially Rosalind) but from your girls names I think that Felicity or Georgina work best with your other children's names.

Pip, Vivi and Fliss/Flick
Pip, Vivi and Georgie

I probably wouldn't choose Victor with Vivi - too similar - but I can't decide between your other boys' names. Edmund shortened to Ted might work well?

I love Georgie for a girl. Also like Claudia.

From your boys list I would go for.....well none of them really but can see that Ted would go well with Pip and Vivi. Vivi is lovely.

Felicity or Georgina and Felix

LEMmingaround · 28/08/2014 13:17

Pippi vivvi and agnes (aggi?) Or felix for a boy.

Ottili? Wtf

UnrelatedToElephants · 28/08/2014 13:28

Annie or Georgie for a girl,
Ted (Edmund) or Ali (Alistair) for a boy.

Guin1 · 28/08/2014 15:04

Good lists! And love your name choices for your other DDs.
My favourites are:
girls - Rosalind, Agnes and Georgina
boys - Felix, Edmund and Alistair

I think the only one I would avoid is Victor because too similar to Vivi, especially if shortened to Vic.

Kittykatmacbill · 28/08/2014 15:45

Love Annie and Agnes (Nessie / Nesa).

Not sure about your boys name they don't have the same nice nn except Timothy (Tim) or Edmund (ted / teddie), what about Alexander (Sandy)?

twinjocks · 28/08/2014 15:56

I love your DDs' names. From your list I like Felicity (Flick/Fliss) and either Robert (Bob) or Edward (Ted) - don't like Edmund, sorry!

Lunastarfish · 28/08/2014 16:02

Felicity and Hugo

DitzyDonkey · 28/08/2014 18:07

Love Felicity, Ottilie (adore) and Felix!

BikeRunSki · 28/08/2014 18:09

Felicity came to mind before I saw your list!

Felicity and Hugo

myotherusernameisbetter · 28/08/2014 20:20

From your lists I'd go with Felicity and Hugo though most of your girls names go (except Agnes and Annemarie) - I think less of the boys names match well.

I'd suggest:

Rosamund
Gabrielle
Genevieve

or

Edgar
Crispin
Dorian
Whittaker
Miles

Sophronia · 28/08/2014 22:08

Rosalind or Annemarie, and Alistair (prefer Alastair) or Timothy.

Suggestions:

Susannah
Caroline
Beatrice
Cordelia
Evangeline
Henrietta
Josephine
Catherine
Madelief
Roberta
Wilhelmina
Juliette

Angus
Benedict
Clement
Evander
Hector
Conrad
Frederick
Laurence
Dominic
Raymond
Nicholas
Leonard
Peter
Lysander

bringbackfonzi · 28/08/2014 22:19

Agnes is the best girls' name ever (biased)!

SurfBoredCat · 28/08/2014 22:25

Lovely names!
Felicity or Felix definitely.

mathanxiety · 29/08/2014 01:49

Rosalind and Timothy.

ArsenicyOldFace · 29/08/2014 01:55

Felicity (Fliss) & Maxwell (Max)

mathanxiety · 29/08/2014 03:09

And I love Edmund and Agnes too.

Surfsup1 · 29/08/2014 03:49

Georgina or Felicity and Alistair or Robert.

BlueStarsAtNight · 29/08/2014 08:01

I wouldn't have an F name as Vivi might feel left out since Philippa has an F sound.
I like Georgina or Rosalind, and Maxwell or Hugo

Agnes and Alistair

ralinax294 · 30/08/2014 22:09

My favourite from your girls list is Georgina and from your boys list Hugo.

Ham69 · 30/08/2014 22:32

Most of your girl's names would work well.
From your boy's list, I love Alistair, Felix and Hugo.
May I also suggest Wilfred.
