Lovely, or OTT? I love, but DH wants Emma and Thomas.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Autumn is ok but I don't really like Phoenix at all.
I quite like Emma and Thomas though.

I like them! Think they go well together (I'm assuming Autumn is girl and Phoenix is boy!). But I agree you and your partner are clearly miles apart, so much so that you can't have one each, as Emma and Phoenix or Autumn and Thomas just don't seem right! Which go best with your surname?

I think you might have to meet in the middle with how "out there" the names are, and probably end up with neither of your first choice!

Oh OK, which out of Autumn and Phoenix is the boy? I have known child one of each name and both were girls.

I agree you and DH ned to reconcile your somewhat differing tastes.

I think the striking problem here is your and your DH'a wildly differing tastes in baby names!

FWIW, I like Autumn but not Phoenix. Phoenix is forever associated with Mel B for me, which is not good.

Emma and Thomas are nice, but perhaps a little plain - I think this is what you might feel about those names?

Maybe figure out what meanings you'd like the names to have and take it from there?
