Autumn and Tomlin?

Yes. Ditching Phoenix, is absolutely the way to go.

Orla and Rafe is fab. I love Rafe. Such a dashing name. Orla is beautiful, too. Quite current, admittedly... but beautiful.

I think Phoenix is as far from pretentious as you can get tbh!

I don't like any of them tbh.

Or Phelan?

I like Autumn and Emma a lot, Thomas is quite nice if a bit plain, don't really like Phoenix (bit pretentious) and really dislike Tate. Also like suggestions, Orla, Rafe and Felix. Have you considered Zander?

Oh actually could be confusing as autumn might sound like 'oi Tom!'

Why not autumn and Thomas?

Autum is lovely.

Loving Spencer Thomas. Right, that is the boy sorted.
Now just the girl to name...

Like playings suggestions!

Autumn is lovely. Would also sound nice wit Emma as mn.

Think Spencer Is better as a first name, but SpencerTate sounds like a law firm or accountants or something. Spencer Thomas would be better. Glad you binned Pheonix.

Orla and Rafe?

Kate and Tate?? (because that may be what they become....?

Not keen on Tate at all.

Love Rafe though, unusual but not too odd?

Oh no Tate is worse than Phoenix!

Sorry, Autumn and Phoenix are awful separately, and together are just unspeakable. Emma and Thomas are lovely names.

Thanks all! Yes, Autumn for Dd and Phoenix for DS. We are getting closer. I've been a bit put off Phoenix after all the celebby comments. We have nearly agreed on Autumn Kate and Tate Spencer. ?

What about Orla and Felix?

Somewhere in the middle between your taste and his.

Love Autumn, not Phoenix.

Like Emma and Thomas but then I am not adventurous with names.

Like Autumn and Thomas. Don't like Emma and Phoenix.

I would lean towards your DH taste a bit more. Is there a middle ground for you?

Phoenix I don't like - its too "celebrity" for me.

I prefer Emma and Thomas. Maybe Autumn. Not Phoenix.

You and DH need to meet in the middle somewhere!
Iris and Aubrey?

Oh I really like these names, they also go well together.I'm a lover of modern, funky names so Emma and Thomas do not float my boat.

I can't tell the gender if the children from those names!

I think they're both horrid, sorry.

Emma & Thomas are a bit meh.

<Not helping.>
