Are the names on the first list - one name iykwim or is it a first name and a middle name?

I love Anna, Seren, Eleanor, Phoebe and Sylvie. I want to like Lydia, I think it’s a lovely name but I knew a baby one and it really didn’t grow on me. I like it as an adult name but I found it jarring on a 3 year old.

Sorry - it probably doesn't look very clear - the first list are first and middles... in combination if you will. But it would just be Anna. Not Anna-Rose, IYSWIM.

The second list are just first name ideas and random thoughts...ones I like but could not quite envisage with a middle name just yet...

Hope that is a bit clearer....

I think Alice is a popular bet for next Royal baby name - just mentioning that in case there are hordes of baby Alices in the next year or two.

Phoebe is nice - not sure about Athena - it is different but it brings posters to my mind

NB if you chose it, it’s Phoebe, not Pheobe. Pheobe is weird.

The first list are all grand, although I don't like Kate personally. I think Rose Eleanor is nicest.

Second list:

Phoebe Aurora
Phoebe Willow
Lydia Emily
Freya Joy

But not pushed on any of those. I also love Aurora Jasmine! Really not a fan of Athena.

Love all your names. Lots of combinations.
Just throwing Francesca into the mix.
Dd is Francesca Annabelle (French surname).

I think the first lot are too common/ordinary.

From your second list I like Aurora and Phoebe.
