We like unusual names, and old fashioned girls names but not boys.

I'm totally drawing a blank. Please help!

Laur (pronounced lore) and Laurie would be NN for Lawrence.

Oh and Simon. Met a man in his 20s with that name it's due a revival.

Lots of lovely names. OH has vetoed most. I did have to talk him around to Mabel. Think I'll put a few of your suggestions on my list, since I actually have a list and he doesn't.
