Hi very early days but got into a right state over names last time so am trying to be more organised. We're currently team yellow and a boy's name is set in stone. Girls are so much harder though. So far we like
Iris
Robyn
Merryn
Judith
Zayda
Ada
Names vetoed by him... Alice Marielle and Demelza
Names vetoed by me.... Abigail and Keely.
Can't use any name starting with Rose or Susan or ending belle/bella.
Help and blunt opinions welcome!

Iris and Ada were on our list - both lovely, though all your choices are nice.

Oooh Keziah is lovely...oh just shouted Bo Selector for some reasonConfused
Love lots of the other suggestions but so many taken by family friends or pets. I'm surprised our list has been so we'll received. ..thanks! Oh loves Robyn. Loves it and Robbie is the name of a favourite auntie (Roberta) so he's putting emotional pressure on. I just am not too sure. Is it very popular?

I like Robyn, but my favourites are Iris and Merryn.

Robyn and Iris seem to be quite popular now (on MN), but I don't know any babies or young children named either in RL. I've definitely never heard Merryn in RL, but it's lovely.

I like all your names actually apart from Zayda and Judith which I'm not so keen on.
