-ie names Shortlist - be as brutal as you like we need some opinions

Katie - It is alright
Allie - same as others sounds nice but the look???
Alexie - nope
Effie - no
Emmie - it is just about alright
Andie - I like it
Essie - okay

Boy

Jamie - it is alright
Richie - Hapy Days so nope
Alfie - like but very like Archie
Robbie - williams so nope
Harrie (looks to odd?) - yes it does
Ollie - it is our dogs name so no but it is nice

I like Charlie, Josie and Sophie as well.

Ohhh and I think it is nice to have names that end with the same sound/letters. Me and my sibling all have names that begin with the same letter and we really liked it when we where kids and still like it now.

I like Stevie, for either.

Janie
Josie
Sophie
Annie

Why can I only think of girls names?

Boys ??

Johnnie
Charlie
Ozzie
Davie (actually, meh)
Gillie (if short for Gilbert)

Sorry, I've not been very helpful after all. All the -ee sounding boys names I like should really end in a -y. Like Rory, Henry, Toby.

i think having them sound all the same is really naff
odd
imagine it was you, your borther and your sister aged 30.

its not cute at 30

I like Emmie, Ollie and Robbie but not keen on any of the others, sorry

How about

Hollie
Lucie
Millie

Can't think of any other boys. I will think about it and come back!

I like Katie, Allie, Emmie, Alfie, Ollie.

Girl

Katie -lovely but I'm biased DD1 but spelt katy
Allie -like but doesn't look right
Alexie-ew (sorry)
Effie -like but depends on your accent
Emmie-too familiar and like a NN (adulat i business meeting?)
Andie -like
Essie -not a fan

Boy

Jamie -like (always think its a very strong name)
Richie -meh
Alfie -too much like Artie
Robbie -meh
Harrie (looks to odd?)
Ollie - like (and goes well with Artie I think)

I'm one of those irritating people who would advise you to think about putting a traditional full form name on the BC, so your DC has a version that doesn't sound like a nn should she wish it later in life. So with that as my angle, I'm commenting on these as day-to-day names, not the BC ones.

Katie - lovely
Allie - sounds nice, but somehow doesn't look right written
Alexie - no
Effie - maybe
Emmie - OK
Andie - lovely
Essie - no (looks like someone's bitten the head off Nessie)

Jamie - lovely
Richie - OK
Alfie - OK
Robbie - lovely
Harrie - no
Ollie - OK
