I like Wilf and Juliet (not Juliette).

Nice names.

Oscar. Nope
Arthur. Yes
Joseph. Ok but common

I wouldn't say they're boring, just good solid names.

Agree that they're mostly pretty boring.

Juliet and violet would be my favourites. The boys names are all dull in my opinion.

whitesockss · 11/09/2019 13:56

I like all of them except Gabrielle/Gabriella

My favourites are Wilfred and Alice

Also prefer Juliet spelling. Violet is becoming very popular if that bothers you

No, they're not boring. I like Joseph and Edward and all of your girl's names.

Grufallosfriends · 11/09/2019 13:49

Violet and Juliet are nice.

The rest are a bit bland, especially the boys names.

Mayannay · 11/09/2019 13:47

Yes, especially the boys names are boring. I know so many of them already.

I do like Juliette and Gabriela!

What @fitzbilly said.

Juliet (spelt like this) is nice when it’s said with a soft et sound imo. And Violet is lovely, one of my fave names.
Quite like Gabriella.
I think the best of your boys names is Edward. Grows well and can be Ed, Teddy, Woody etc when younger.

I think they are a bit boring, yes, especially the boys names.

Juliette and violet are nice and a bit less boring.
