The names you have picked out are lovely. I noticed on your boys list there is a couple of Cornish names, do you like any for girls?
A couple of my favourites are Lowenna or Lamorna.

Flora Mabel is nice but Mabel Ivy isn't good imho.
Bartholomew Asa sounds nice - much better than Asa Rufus or Rufus Asa imho.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 15/09/2013 18:36

You know you're over-thinking this, yes? :)

Adore Hester and Bartholomew, so I'll choose those two.

Alisvolatpropiis · 15/09/2013 17:58

Clara Celeste

And

Torrin Jude (Torin is usually spelt with just the one r though?)

ZolaBuddleia · 15/09/2013 17:55

Beulah Nell

Asa Jude

I had a relative called Beulah, I think it's fab.

exoticfruits · 15/09/2013 17:46

Barnaby or Eliza

EnjoyEverySandwich · 15/09/2013 17:32

Oh and the repetition of names is because the lists were complied over several years months,and every time I went through and deleted repeats,my iPad added them back in Angry

fuzzpig · 15/09/2013 17:17

Asa rufus sounds better imo, the S sounds are too close together in Rufus Asa

You're coming up with some fab combo's that I hadn't considered btw,so this is working very well! Thankyou Grin

We have chosen:

Flora Mabel (ivy) not entirely sure whether we'll use ivy.

And

Rufus Asa or Asa Rufus (still undecided on the flow of this one/which should go first)

Margo Delphi Pearl

Asa Rufus Auden

Some magnificent names, are we allowed to know what you have chosen?

WeetzieBat · 15/09/2013 16:44

Out of interest, what are the names you've chosen?

squoosh · 15/09/2013 16:36

Definitely not Tulip!!!!!!

UpTheFRIGGinDuff · 15/09/2013 16:34

Nope none are a joke but some are obviously a bit out there.

We have chosen one for each gender,I just wanted a few ideas in case they don't suit the names we've picked iyswim..

We aren't having twins,we just don't know the gender Smile

SubliminalMassaging · 15/09/2013 16:08

Ok, first of all, before I go any further, please tell me Doris and Enid are a joke. Please. for the love of god, don't do it.

Luna Scout
Buckley Kip

Tinlegs · 15/09/2013 16:06

Nancy Maud
Barnaby Jude

HTH. Are you having boy girl twins or just being prepared for either sex?

MissPlumBroughtALadder · 15/09/2013 16:01

Wow I LOVE your taste in names! Loads I like in there. I found it interesting that you have Nancy three times in your list - could be a sign?

lljkk · 15/09/2013 16:01

Gawd, MN baby name preferences make me laugh.

Okay, you asked for it:

Luna: alright if you're inspired by Lovegood.

Most of them make me cringe.

We know a lovely Farrah, so that gets my first vote.
Quentin for a boy.

JustBecauseICan · 15/09/2013 15:54

Beatrice and Rufus for me.

AurorasShoes · 15/09/2013 15:51

Artemis Emmeline
Ariadne Celeste

Rupert Ingram
Rufus Alban

TobyLerone · 15/09/2013 13:42

If you use Esme (which is a lovely name), please spell it properly!

fuzzpig · 15/09/2013 13:41

Artemis (Artie for nickname) Io for a boy
