So our little boy or girl is due this coming week. Have narrowed our list to two girls names and two boys names. Would love to know which you would pick for a girl and a boy:

Elodie Maria
Evelyn Lyra
Benjamin Thomas
Oscar Nathaniel

Thank you!!

Don't like the others.

Elodie (loads of Evelyns/Evies)
Oscar

mum2be2boys · 29/10/2017 12:57

Lovely choices! My favourites are Elodie and Benjamin. I like all of your middle name ideas :-)

Peeetle · 29/10/2017 08:01

Elodie and Benjamin

Evelyn if you pronouncing it eev-lin. But if you are pronouncing it Ev-lin or ever-lin, then Elodie. Both nice.

Benjamin is nicer than Oscar, I like it but I really like Nathaniel!

starkid · 27/10/2017 12:14

I like Elodie Maria and Benjamin Thomas out of those pairs :)

PinkFlamingo888 · 26/10/2017 19:01

I like Elodie Lyra and Benjamin Nathaniel. Sorry, I feel as though I’m being difficult 😂 I just don’t love Oscar or Thomas or Evelyn. Maria’s quite nice though but I do prefer Lyra.

Elodie
Oscar

EverythingEverywhere1234 · 26/10/2017 15:28

Elodie Maria
Oscar Nathaniel

DaisyTheDeer · 26/10/2017 13:40

And boring*

DaisyTheDeer · 26/10/2017 13:40

Evelyn and Oscar.

Elodie is quite hard to say IMO. Evelyn is lovely and very underused.

Benjamin is old-fashioned are boring (sorry)

CakeRattleandRoll · 26/10/2017 13:37

Evelyn and Oscar

bridgetreilly · 26/10/2017 11:33

Evelyn Maria. I don't like Elodie at all, and I don't really think Lyra goes well with Evelyn.

Either of the boys names are good, but I have a slight preference for Oscar.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 26/10/2017 10:36

Evelyn Maria is lovely, and Benjamin Thomas.

MaroonPencil · 26/10/2017 10:28

Elodie and Benjamin

BernardBlacksHangover · 26/10/2017 10:18

Fwiw I know loads of little Benjamins. Just one Elodie. Oscar and Evelyn are popular though, so depends how much of a concern that is.

BernardBlacksHangover · 26/10/2017 10:17

Evelyn Lyra and Oscar Nathaniel. Lovely!

Not at all keen on Elodie or Benjamin for some reason...

PandaCat · 26/10/2017 07:41

Elodie or Benjamin, simply because there aren't many around! All nice names though!

ChocolateCrunch · 26/10/2017 07:39

Elodie or Benjamin

Quite like Oscar, but not so much Evelyn, sorry
