Love Florian and Jonathan.

William could get teased with Willy.

Of your girls names I like Louisa and Apoline.

Aww, thanks :) It seems like our boy's names are a bit more liked than the girl's.

228: I also like Florian. Plus, the godmother (my sister) is named Flora. Which makes this name "extra lovely" in my personal opinion...

Not keen on Anthony. Other boys names are great. Florian is unusual but fab.

Don't like Erica.

MadameJosephine · 02/05/2017 23:05

William or Louisa by a mile

Thanks :)

I should have mentioned that the middle names are already "set in stone", sorry...

bridge:

Oh gosh, no idea :) The name that goes best with Clarissa or is liked the most and/or just "feels right"? I personally really like all of these (well, I am actually a little bit unsure about Apolline, but DH honestly loves it). But I am really indecisive, unfortunately...

Boys' list are all fab, with the exception of Florian which I'm not keen on. If I had to pick my favourite it would be Magnus.

From your girls' list, I love Louisa and think it goes perfectly with Clarissa.

Erica is quite nice too, but I'm not mad on the others.

Love Florian, Jonathan, Magnus, Louisa, Isidora and Apolline.

You have a mix of classic, normal names: William, Anthony, Jonathan, Erica, Louisa and very distinctive unusual names: Florian, Isidora, Apolline. Maybe decide which kind of name you want to go for first?

❤️ Jonathan Magnus
Apolline Louisa is very pretty.

Yes, Isidora is a spelling :)

We have actually considered Ariadne. But I don't like it.

But thank you for these suggestions.

Louisa and Isadora (Is Isidora even a spelling?) maybe consider Hebe, Hera or Ariadne?

Magnus is my fave of your boys names.

So: :)
Anthony
William
Florian
Jonathan
Magnus (will be used as a middle name if not as a first)

Erica
Louisa
Isidora
Adaline (do you prefer Ada?)
Apolline

Thank you :)

I don't like Florian or Adeline (too close to Aveline (Boswell))

Ada is nice.
