I like Elle

Not keen on any of the others sorry

StuffYouAllInTheCrust · 18/09/2014 19:48

Georgia for a girl with Tabitha a close second. Not really taken with any of the boys names but would say Arlo if I had to choose one.

enriquetheringbearinglizard · 18/09/2014 19:48

I only like Elle or Georgie for a girl and I would go with Freddie for a boy.
Not at all keen on any of your other names, sorry.

Wishfulmakeupping · 18/09/2014 19:48

I love Georgie best from your list, I have a little Georgia who gets called Georgie :)

My favourites from your girls' list are Georgie and Thora. Elva I quite like but elver is a baby eel so not sure!

My favourites from your boys' list are Fred, Digby and Rufus. Rex is a dog to me.

Elle, Georgie, Fred and Arlo are all alright. Don't like the rest though. Gretel usually only has one t.

Wishfulmakeupping · 18/09/2014 19:49

I do like Rufus for a boy from your list. Have you thought about Rafe? In my mind it would be a similar vein to your boy options

I like Elva and Rufus most.

Don't like Elle or Georgie, but love Ella and Georgina.

Love Thora too, but think it stands out next to Tilly. Aurora's beautiful too.

Don't like Rex, Digby or Arlo (no particular reason). Love Freddie, but not Fred.

Hakluyt · 18/09/2014 19:52

If you like Clementine have you considered Clemency?

OublietteBravo · 18/09/2014 19:52

Still love Thora (quite like Grettel, but would spell it Gretel - and personally prefer Greta).

I like all your boys names except Digby. If I had to pick a favourite, I'd go with Rufus.

What about Georgina? We have one, she is always called Georgie at the moment but if she wants a more formal/grown up name in the future she can use Georgina.

whatshesaid i think because we have Tilly (informal) instead of the more formal Matilda, we would stick with that jist and just have Georgie as the given name.

Elva and Arlo are my favourites.

GloriousGloria · 18/09/2014 20:02

Thora and Arlo

All the others are rather popular or I don't like them.

hollie84 · 18/09/2014 20:06

Not sure if you're naming a boy or a dog Grin Fred is a great name, Arlo is a bit trendy.

Girls - Elle and Aurora are awful.
Grettel is a bit odd, especially that spelling. And everyone will just think of Hansel. Greta is nice though
Tabitha and Clementine are fine names
Georgie is cute
Thora is very cool.

hollie84 · 18/09/2014 20:07

I missed Elva - I like it, or Elvie. Also like Alba and Alma which have a similar feel.

burgatroyd · 18/09/2014 20:41

How about Elka?
I like Tabitha from list.

magicalmrmistofelees · 18/09/2014 20:46

Georgie and Arlo

funnyface31 · 18/09/2014 20:46

Tabitha & Arlo are my favourites.

Not too keen on any other boys names. Sorry

Sophronia · 18/09/2014 21:28

Georgie and Fred.

helensburgh · 18/09/2014 21:29

Gretell and Fred, lovely

thatsn0tmyname · 18/09/2014 21:32

Thora from me

ItsNotEasyBeingGreen · 18/09/2014 21:34

Tabitha and Rex

I know a Rex, he's lovely and very handsome so I'm biased.
