Under two weeks to go and still undecided - and don't know the sex of the baby. What do you think of the following names?

Penelope
Clara
Leonora
Miranda
Elizabeth
Rosalind

Robert
Guy
Nicholas

Also, is it me, or are there FAR more nicer girls names than boys?!

I like Leonora, Miranda, Rosalind, Robert and Nicholas. Lovely lists!

I have a Penelope, so I'm somewhat biased, but absolutely love it.
I would go Nicholas for a boy

I personally hate the name Guy. It feels like a lack-of-name to me. I’m sure it has an origin and meaning I am not aware of but I think it’s like naming someone ‘bloke’ or ‘sheila’ or ‘dude’ Blush

I love Penelope, Clara and Elizabeth. I think Leonora is a bit stuffy, but who knows, maybe it’s due for a come back? Miranda makes me think of birth control for some reason... is there a pill called that maybe?

I like Robert (and Bobby) and Nicolas.

I agree with you, waaay more good girls names out there than boys names.

I like them all, except Nicholas.
What about Giles, Miles, Luca, Jon.

Hiya, My personal favourites out of your list are Penelope and Nicholas ... both cute yet timeless as adults

Good luck xxx
