I am in a quandary. These are our possible choices of names but we are struggling to make any final decisions with only 3 weeks to go. Any thoughts on these:

Boys:
Sebastian (really don't like Sebby/Sebbie though as this is slightly putting us off) but like Seb
Jacob ? and maybe Jake for short
Frank

Girls:
Esther
Cleo - is this too girly?
Jessica

I don't like Jake or Seb, but am starting to like Frank/Frankie.

Cleo/Cloepatra and Esther are both lovely. Don't like Jess/Jessica.

Sebastian and Cleo definitely. I have never ever heard my friend Sebastian called Sebby, ever, and I've known him since he was 5.

Esther and Frank!

I don't like Seb/Sebbie(reminds me of sebacious = oily).

Jacob/Jake is quite common.

Frank could grow on me, actually.

I love Cleo (short for Cleopatra?)

I know two Sebastians and they both get called 'Baz' at school.

Cleo is absolutely awful, sorry.

Jacob is ok, as is Jessica.

Sebastian and Cleo! FABULOUS!
