Lovely names.

The only one I hate is Talitha, always sounds as though you have a lisp and clumsy to say.

Keziah is great.

YakTriangle · 31/12/2015 19:00

I like Elizabeth, Zoe, Elijah and James.

I love pandora but hadn't thought of the bracelets...

What about Keziah? That's N old family name, I forgot to add to my list.

I can't warm to Pandora. What is the nn, Panny??
Rest are ok or even good.

I really like Rafferty. James is a good strong name, and Elijah is nice too. I dislike Ezra, but that's probably because I know an (adult) Ezra who is a bit of a muppet.

From your girls, I like Elizabeth. Zoe is nice but not overly exciting. Pandora would be my favourite were it not for the jewellery.

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 31/12/2015 17:56

Congratulations!

I love Zoe & quite like Tabitha (because the nn Tabby is so cute). I'm not a fan of any of your other girl's names though.

All of your boys' names are nice. I think Elijah is probably the best.

The only sensible name out of your girls names is Elizabeth.
James and Ezra are nice out of the boys names . The others are just silly, sorry

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/12/2015 17:52

Elizabeth is the only one I like from your girls' list. Hate Zoe, Tabitha and Talitha.

Elijah James would be nice.

Vixxfacee · 31/12/2015 17:47

Yes to
Arabella
Zoe
Elijah
James
Ezra

No to the rest.

Pandora, Tazmin and Talitha are especially bad.

Tiggeryoubastard · 31/12/2015 17:45

Pandora is now synonymous with jewellery. Tazmin and Talitha are just silly. Rafferty is naff naff naff. The others are all fine.

Sophronia · 31/12/2015 17:44

Ooh I like Talitha. Tabitha is nice too, as is Zoe. Ezra and Elijah are my favourite from your boys list.

Congrats Flowers

Love Tabitha and Zoe, Rafferty and Ezra.
