Don't let dh be right!

[foolserrand]

We are currently ttc dc2, with no urgent need for names. But thought I'd ask you viper what you thought of my names short list.

Girls:
Felicity Daisy
Tabitha Felicity
Ava (middle name tbc)

Boys:
Theo
Noah
Oliver
Oscar

Dh likes George. I can't get past the pig anymore.

Be as merciless as you like. I'm tough! :o

[Crawling]

I like them all except Tabitha but there is no reason I dislike it just not my cuppa I guess.

[valiumbandwitch]

I prefer George.

Felicity is hard to say, it's got no obvious nick name. It's a bit prissy, a bit close to fellatio. It's just not a good name imo. Felix for a boy on the other hand is much better.

Tabitha is a bit trendy, a bit witch#s cat though. Not keen.

Daisy is lovely but maybe a bit cutesy for an adult. Ava makes a lovely middle name though, depending on how the first name runs into it.

Your boys' names.
Theo. I prefer Leo, it's more classic and less trendy. Leo will be less specifically 2003-2009

NOah - ok but a bit feminine imo
Oliver - OK, very popular.
Oscar - ok, but prefer Felix, it has a similar vibe but is just nicer imo.

Maybe Georgie as a nn would have the 'trendy' vibe I think you are after. But as it is, George is a better name than any on your boys' list.

[ColonelBrandonsBiggestGroupie]

I like Felicity Daisy and Oliver Noah best. Don't like Tabitha or George.

[Hulababy]

Girls - Of all the names I like Daisy best. From the options given, possibly Felicity Daisy. I know my DH likes the name Felicity, I am less keen.

Boys - I like Oliver best, then George, followed by Oscar, Noah and finally Theo.

[meditrina]

Felicity - OK
Daisy - lovely, but you might want to have a think about using it as a nn for Margaret (Margaret Ava would work well).
Tabitha - lovely!!

Theo - lovely name, especially if you use Theodore on BC, a classic both sides of the Atlantic
Noah - OK, but a lot of them around
Oliver - OK, consistently at the top of the charts, but not that many (round here, at least)
Oscar - lovely!!

[foolserrand]

It would be Theodore on the bc.

Ds was going to be Felicity (family middle name) Daisy (as in whoops ) but it has lost its magic now.

Trying to avoid the chelsee / dwayne names that are far too common round my way. But don't want the child teased too much in case we can't escape before they start school.

[mayanna123]

I like Tabitha and Felicity. Ava is a little dull in comparison but fine as a middle name.
I don't really like any of the boys' names, they're more common in comparison, especially Oscar (and I really dislike Os/Ossie). Theodore is probably the most classiest.

[MollyMurphy]

I think your boys list is quite good. I like Noah the best, followed by Oscar, Oliver, George (sorry) and then Theo.

As for you girls list....you asked for our honest opinions now...

I despise Tabitha - really. I think its horrid.

I like Ava the best, followed by Felicity.

[Scheherezadea]

NN for Felicity is Flic - I had a friend called Flic :) or Fliss

[BehindLockNumberNine]

Love the Felicity Daisy combination. That is really pretty. I love the nn Fliss too.
Can't stand Tabitha. Purely personal preference.

As for the boys - I have an Oliver. Still absolutely love the name. It is popular but there are not too many about.
Also love Noah and Theo.

[foolserrand]

Dh is now smug thanks to so many of you liking George. Could I dissuade you by saying our surname also begins with G?

[BehindLockNumberNine]

Nothing wrong with George but not sure if the surname also begins with G...

[foolserrand]

We are probably going for Thomas as a middle name for the boys. Another family tradition. Not sure about GTG for initials.

[pilates]

George is a really great name.

Oliver second and the rest I don't like.

Ava is very nice, not keen on the rest.

[valiumbandwitch]

is the g in the sur name soft or hard?

GTG seem fine as initials.

[ChippingIn]

Girls:
Felicity Daisy - I like and I like both Fliss and Flic
Tabitha Felicity - sorry, but it's a cat :)
Ava (middle name tbc) - no, just don't like it

Boys:
Theo - no too girly
Noah - too many of them
Oliver - didn't like it, but it's growing on me as my friends little boy is called that and he's LOVELY :) (big boy now!)
Oscar - I quite like it

George - I quite like it, but I do tend to think of dinosaurs oink

[foolserrand]

A hard G, Vallium.

[brightcopperkettles]

I was going to suggest Felicity Ava from your girls' names until you mentioned your surname starts with G. I do like Felicity a lot though and the little one I knew got called Flossie or Floss.

From your boys' names I like George best (sorry) although not sure on GG as initials. I do like Thomas for a first name though if that is a contender?

[redflagsahoy]

I like Theo and Ava, both nice and international too

[squeak2392]

I don't like Tabitha, and both full names are tongue-twisters. Don't like Daisy either.

Don't like George, but that's just me.
Not sure about the other boys names.

[Stars22]

I think they are all ok except Tabitha hate it. (sorry!)

I think Ava is quite nice.

I dont like the name Theo, but like the others and think George is nice.

[WillowFae]

I have a friend who is a Felicity and she is called Effie.
