That’s a very House of Windsor influenced list! Grin

Anna from the girls list. I’m only thinking bad thoughts about the boys list, I’m afraid. Thomas at a push?

Eben - Hideous.

Ha ha, love the comments! What is House of Windsor? As in, the current royals? I guess so!

I have a William, a Thomas and a Lucy so I think they are lovely names! Grin The only one I really don't like on your list is Eben - it sounds made up so Ebeneezer instead?

Osian looks like you've mispelled Oisín (I know it's a valid alternate spelling but Oisín is much nicer!). Eben is not a name. Fabian is awful. Louis is overdone. The rest are lovely!

Are you Welsh? I like Anna, Lucy and Megan for girls, very classic. Not keen on Ros but Roslyn is quite cool.

Osian is nice for a boy (I like the history) but I'm really not keen on the rest. For some reason Thomas always seems like quite a "pudgy" name to me Confused.

Love Rod and Fabian but like @BobbyBlueCat says.....one of my Fabian names friends is gay. Not that it matters what his orientation is but this anecdotally backs ups that comment.

I love Megan but that might be because my sons key worker is called Megan and she is such a lovely and beautiful young lady. My 3 year old always chimes up every morning whilst getting ready for nursery 'go see Megan?' And I say yes we are. It's so cute. Not really a fan of the boys names sorry x

Ok, full disclosure. I was juat being curious. My kids are already named! This is a list of their first and middle names, plus one or two I didn't use! Love seeing what people think.
Yes I am Welsh/ Cornish.
Osian would have been Osh.

Definitely LOVE Thomas.
