You don’t need a nickname. Why look for one? That will come with school.

Lewis - alright, but I prefer Louis
Oliver - nice but very popular if that bothers you
George - I don't like this but everyone else does
Mason - really dislike
Marley - really dislike
Chester - really dislike
Harvey - really dislike

Bella - this is very sweet
Laila - don't like this but I don't know why
Lola - it's okay
Leela-rose - really dislike - is Leela a real name? I also hate hyphenated names
Lara - alright

Thanks everyone.. leela & mason are a no then.. partner wasn't keen on these either.
Nicknames are a big thing for me, so Oliver is mainly because I like Ollie, Lewis I like Lew, harvey I don't mind Harv, Chester Marley and George are just names I like & I think Lara and Bella are the favourite girls names, I like belle but not sure what Lara would be shortened too..

I love Lewis and Lara

I like George, Harvey and Laila

The others are all okay but don't jump out at me in a positive way.

Oliver has been the top most popular boys name for years! There are so so many already...

Peachbubble · 31/05/2019 14:20

I like George and Lara

HappyDinosaur · 31/05/2019 14:20

I like Oliver and George but Mason is a bit tacky (to me) and Lewis is quite wet (again to me!)

Laila is pretty but I prefer it spelt Layla, Lola is also very nice.

goldensugar2 · 31/05/2019 14:18

I don't like any, sorry.

If I had to choose, probably Mason and Lara.

CakeRattleandRoll · 31/05/2019 14:16

Favourites are Lewis and Lara.

I'm not keen on Mason or Leela-Rose.
Some people will say Marley is the dog's name.
I like the others
