I have an Effie, Honor, Clemency and Noah. I like Manon and Merryn for girls but need more inspiration, have a love of Welsh and also Puritan names and have no idea what to call my baby if it turns out to be a boy! Help please!

Hmmm Primrose has reminded me that I really like Clover, but possibly too much like a name for a horse?

Blush at Artex Glad you like, but as you see it's becoming a bit of a challenge now, choosing again.

Cornelius brings to mind the old elephant in Babar.... I hope he wasn't the one who ate a bad mushroom and died?

Well actually it'll be my 11th Blush hence I need the help, but I thought best not to leap in with all the names we've used so far or we could be here a while....

Place names can be very effective. I knew a woman called Veryan, after the Cornish village, which I thought was pretty.
