Lucy and Quinn!

Countrybumpkin19 · 22/05/2019 07:44

We have a Lucy and a Florence so I'd say go for one of those names! Also like Phoebe too. Out of your boys' names, I love Flynn and Quinn.

I wouldn't choose Freddie if it were just my choice but my dh is really picky and does not like exciting names. I know he will also want Lucy for a girl

Oh good you rid of Libby, weirdly it seemed to be popular as a stand alone name in the early 2000s at the baby groups that I went to with DC2. Never met any with DC3.

I love Lucy, always will so that gets my vote. Phoebe is also nice.

Florence seems very faddy, Cleo is alright, it does however reminds me of that me mermaid programme from years ago but that probably won't concern you...

My favourite for your boys is Quinn, also like Flynn.

Freddie seems dull, and I never liked Rowan. Not sure about Mack!

Love Quinn for a boy
Phoebe is my favourite on your girls list

I think I prefer, Cleo and Florence. I don't think my dh will agree 😭. I met a Libby today and the name is now scrapped off the list 😂

Lucy and Florence from the girls.

Only like Rowan from boys.

Leleophants · 21/05/2019 11:15

Florence as it's beautiful and classy whilst cute for a child. Also love how it doesn't stick to the traditional "-y" or "-a" endings for girls

Sophronia · 20/05/2019 21:59

Cleo Florence is nice.

Purplelavenders · 20/05/2019 18:14

Cleo for a girl and Quinn for a boy!

Don't like Phoebe, Mack or Libby.

BackforGood · 20/05/2019 17:36

I like Libby, but not sure what this means ? Libby love mn Sue ?

Phoebe, Cleo and Lucy okay

Don't like Florence.

Really don't like any of your boys names except Freddie is okay, but there are a LOT of them in the U5 population.

I aren't sure about Liberty, my other dd have classic names. Wouldn't be out of place on a baby or granny 😂

Would be helpful if we knew the style of names you chose for you DDs...Love all your boys name apart from Freddie, so many Freddie’s in the UK now.

Phoebe is extremely popular where I am, and is often spelt incorrectly. Florence is classic and beautiful. I like Libby but feels rather like a nn, Liberty?

I like Cleo, Flynn and Quinn most :)

parabailarlabamba · 20/05/2019 10:42

Love Cleo!!!

Watersnail · 20/05/2019 09:31

My favourites of the girls names are Lucy and Florence, then Phoebe. Not keen on Libby, it sounds quite hard compared to the other options. I like Rowan and Freddie from the boys list.

Lucy Florence
Freddie Rowan

Constance1234 · 20/05/2019 09:07

Rowan for a boy, Phoebe for a girl :)

Astronica · 20/05/2019 08:23

Girls - I like all the names on your list except Sue, so if it was Libby Sue I would cross that off straight away. Phoebe and Lucy are lovely but I would personally avoid a 3rd name with 'y/ie' ending as it seems a bit matchy to me. Both Florence and Cleo are lovely and would work well, and I would choose Cleo first as it's not over-used and so sleek and feisty.

Boys - Flynn is the standout there.

Icklepup · 20/05/2019 08:01

Lucy and Quinn or Rowan

tiramisu1 · 20/05/2019 07:35

I like Cleo and Lucy. Dislike Libbie.

For a boy, I prefer Quinn and Rowan.
