Noelle is pretty. Or Holly? Do you like Noel for a boy? Not Claus!

It's a shame you're not Spanish, or you could get away with Jesus.

Rudolph (I know, I know, but Rudy is kinda cute).

I adore the name Raphael, though it is, I guess a bit poncy.

Our DD was due christmas eve. We had chosen Robin for a boy, Robyn for a girl. She was late, and it didnt seem quite right for a January baby!

Stella is beautiful and not too festively contrived.

BVoys a bit harder. I do like Joseph but sounds too Nativity Play for a Christmas baby. I suppose people would soon lose sight of that.

I think Stella and Joseph are beautiful
