Mine : Dominic and Nina
My husband : Claudia and James

We've 3 daughters : none of them are called any of the above Grin

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 28/03/2016 19:21

Only at the TTC stage, but our names are already picked out.
Gabriel or Amity.

blueemerald · 28/03/2016 16:48

Me: Brynjya (brin-ya) for a girl and Alexander for a boy.
Him: Adriel for a girl and Alexander for a boy.

Seems great (I love his names and he likes my girls' name enough) but my family has a "rule" of not naming babies after living relatives (old religious practice) and my DP's twin brother is called Alexander!

OH has given me dibs on naming our kids :) he's not really bothered about names. We'll be going with Welsh names though, and boys name is more or less sorted.

So for my non naming OH: Rhys and Ffion.
Mine: Rhys and keep swinging between Eleri and Briallen for a girl.

Mine; Sebastian and tessa
Dp; efren and Freya

Alex and Eve

Missfergal · 28/03/2016 09:45

Mine- Florence and Fraser
DH- Renee and Archie

Still not 100%.

Quercus3 · 28/03/2016 08:16

Mine: Helena and Rory
His: Jamie and Harold

No hope.

isamonster · 28/03/2016 00:45

me: Camille and Louis
him: Dimitri and Cynthia

We had a lot of talking to do to find a name for dd...

BeastofCraggyIsland · 28/03/2016 00:35

Mine are Alexander and Elena
DP's are Alexander and James - he can't think of a girl's name so when the time comes looks like I'll get my way regardless of what it is Grin

neonrainbow · 27/03/2016 13:33

Mine is claudia and jonathan. Dh is sullivan and aurora. (I think. Haven't asked him recently.) He didn't really care about names so if we ever have a daughter she will be claudia.

Wishfulmakeupping · 27/03/2016 13:27

I liked Georgiana, Kitty, Harriet- Dh liked Scarlet.
I liked Gregory, Alistair and Henry and DH suggested Arlo.
We have very different tastes! Got there in the end Dh had to compromise more than me though :)

YellowPirate · 27/03/2016 13:23

We both have the same. Patrick for a boy and Sylvie for a girl. DC2 might be tricky if it turns out to be a boy. X

marmitecrumpets · 27/03/2016 11:04

Eden and Roman

I don't have a partner so I'll pick another two myself!

Willow and Logan

Kitla · 27/03/2016 10:29

My favourites are Elizabeth and either Jolyon or Edwin.

DH hasn't got a clue - he just doesn't like my name choices. Made naming our children very difficult!

Ludwsys · 27/03/2016 09:42

She - should say dh

Ludwsys · 27/03/2016 09:42

Dc's names aside..

Mine - Seth and Eliza
She - Brandon and Samantha

TheLuckDragon · 27/03/2016 09:18

Me - Wren and Ira
DH - Wren and Jack

SeriousSteve · 27/03/2016 09:09

Me - Amelia/Chloe and Kevin
DW - Kia (predates the cars she hastens to add) / Juliette and she is thinking on boy.

albertcampionscat · 27/03/2016 08:31

Ezra (me) Caleb (him)
We both like Isolde/Zelda for a girl. Probably good we're having a boy.

Chelsea26 · 27/03/2016 08:29

Me - bonnie and Rory
DH - Chloe and Rory

Naming DS1 was really easy Smile naming DS2 was really hard as no back up!

Horseshoe1 · 27/03/2016 07:45

DH- Serafina, Raphael
Me- Clara, Gabriel

Twowrongsdontmakearight · 27/03/2016 07:07

For DC1 DH wanted Winston or Nelson for a boy or Ruby or Amber for a girl.

For DC 2 he wanted Ghengis! Even when we knew it was a DD. I liked the name Caroline.

Mclaren37 · 27/03/2016 06:57

DH - Otis or Floyd and Scarlett (trendy)
Mine - Angus or Ralph and Margot (vintage)
Nightmare! The compromise for DS was something totally different!

Sometimesithinkimbonkers · 27/03/2016 05:44

DH likes Jasmine and Corbin

I like Cleo and Zachary!
