Names you love but won’t be using...

[MrsFoxPlus4]

Thought this would be interesting.

Girl - Bernadine - friends grans name, love it we call her Berdie.
Boy - Mac - cousins son.

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

Both great names, love them !
I know a Bernardine nick named Nina, and a Marcus, nick named Mac.

[MrsMoastyToasty]

Kerenza (or other spelling ) . I had a son and am now way past reproducing.

[Littlepond]

Cordelia. Always wanted a daughter called Cordelia.

[MaisyPops]

I love Atticus but DH hates it and says I'll sound like some sort of new aged hipster.

[Kleokat]

I loves pearl and violet for a girl bit dp wouldn't have it

[loveablether]

Flora...too margariney sounding but seriously considered it for my first.

[ByThePowerOfRa]

Isis

[pinyata]

Penelope but DP said veto'ed it , I managed to sneak it in as a middle name

[crookedhooker]

Luke sounded so wrong with my surname.

[Smoliver]

Marissa and Maia - love these names but they don't work with the middle names I want to use.

Jasper - I watched 101 Dalmatians. One of the evil henchmen was called Jasper. It was a no from me ever since!

[MonaChopsis]

Merryn. Rhymes with a name already in the family.
Tallulah. Love the sound of this and the nicknames but it would be such a big name to live up to!

[DuggeeHugs]

Anouk

[msatlantis]

Posey for a girl.

Murdo for a boy. Strong name with Scottish connections which I love but DP thought it sounded too much like 'murder'

[Carolwithane]

Robbie - DP hates it! M'eh

Now 38 weeks and still don't have a name if it's a boy!

[QueenNefertitty]

Aeronwy
Felicity
Maya
Vela
Prudence
Faith

Sirius
Jasper
Hiro
Jude
Rowan
Darwin

DS is my one and will be my only- his name is lovely, and he is magnificent, but still sad I won't use any of these

[StressheadMcGee]

Charlie - because my surname is also slang for a certain type of drug

[GetTheGoodLookingGuy]

Emilio - too similar to my own name

[YouBetterWORK]

I did like the sound of Alexa (not short for anything, just Alexa on it's own). Obviously Amazon have ruined that now though, people would go "What? After the talking home device?!"

[IggyAce]

Balthazar (not brave enough and DH would have vetoed)

Ezekiel, found this name after we had completed our family.

Rosalie, DH vetoed but dc2 was a boy anyway.

[rizlett]

Godart

Hepzibar

Both family names.

[hlc123]

Athena - love it but don't think we could pull it off

[lilydaisyrose]

Clementine

[BelfastSmile]

Jonas

I love it, but it doesn't work with our surname, and is a bit to similar to my nephew, Joe (Joseph).

[Mrsknackered]

Alba - love it, every time I suggested it DP said 'tross'

Meg - my grandma's NN but DP won't have it unless it is short for Megan, which I really don't like :(

Iris - "it's a part of an eye, not a name"

Nala/Nahla - took close to DS1's name and is too corny Disney

Ambrose - "old man" "custard" "Kanye wests ex"

[FairfaxAikman]

Alasdair.
My all time favourite boys name but DH hates it with a passion.
