Philippa is definitely more love it or hate it than the others, isn’t it? I definitely don’t think there are that many people who HATE the name Elizabeth.

Sofia, spelt like this.Grin

Thomas, Edward, Elizabeth and Alexandra

Hate Philippa. It's my sister's name and she despises it. It's just so ugly sounding.

I love them all, you have great taste! But if I had to pick just one from each list then Edward and Philippa.

I love Alexandra but not so keen on any of the nicknames. However, I do love Philippa/Pip (or possibly Piper - someone mentioned that the other day as a potential nn) and Elizabeth/Lizzie or Kitty.

I like all of the boys names equally - although I guess Arthur has less nicknaming potential and I do love a nickname!
