Not finding out the sex of bump so hoping for opinions on two lists please:

Girls:

Belle
April
May
Zelda
Maya/Maia
Destiny (worried this could be a bit of a marmite name)
Esmeralda, ( Possibly more a middle name)

Boys:

Deano
Zayden
Jay
Jamal, ( is this acceptable as we are both white British ?)
Zack

I realize a lot of these names are either "love or hate," so honestly won't be offended by honesty.

Belle & Deano. Fabulous names.

Yep that is the problem bluestars, I do like "unusual" names but I do not wish to sound trashy, both myself and DP have fairly normal names and so obviously have no experience of living with an unusual name but I would not wish to cause problems for my child with C.V's etc in future life.

Belle - quite like
April - quite like
May - not a fan, it's a bit boring
Zelda - don't like I'm afraid
Maya/Maia - ok, fairly popular tho
Destiny - sounds like a stripper's name, sorry
Esmerelda - ok as middle name, don't like as a 1st
Billie - quite like, would prob use as nn for Belinda

Deano - dislike, sounds trashy to me
Zayden - dislike, sounds made up and a bit trashy too
Jay - like this
Jamil - definitely odd if both White British, don't like
Zack - quite like, prefer Isaac

I think we have very different tastes!

Also, although it's a different style, I quite like "Billie," as a girls name
