Ok, so here are my shortlists for DC 1. Please come and rate/slate the names.

Girls:
Ruth
Dorothy
Judith
Matilda

Boys:
Miles
Marcus
Victor
Gus
Tobias
Magnus

Context: DD/DS will grow up in a naice part of London. Surname is double-barrelled and something like Reith-Barker.

First post so apologies if I have got the etiquette wrong. Thanks in advance!

I love Dorothy, lots of nice nicknames for it too. Victor is my favourite from the boys list.

(OP here)

Realised that my made-up surname is a bad example because the h at the end makes all the girls' names sound odd. So let's say our surname is something like Reel-Barker.

Matilda is the only one of your girls names I like.

Tobias, Magnus and Miles are all nice. Magus is probably the most unusual.

I think Dorothy is cool- slightly prefer Dorothea but maybe that's a bit frilly. Ruth and Matilda are both nice, but I've never liked Judith. I would consider calling a girl Jude though.

Adore Magnus! That's the only one of the boys I love. You could nickname Gus, which is quite nice.
