Love Lydia. I would go with noah over Simon but that's only because my ex was Simon 🙄

KronksSpinachPuffs · 15/09/2019 16:39

Lydia and Noah are nice, strongly dislike the other two options

I really dislike Simon and Bronwyn, but the other two are nice!

I actually know a couple called Lydia and Simon, in their 40s. Lovely people but very dated names and frumpy names imo. Other choices are lovely

Lydia and Noah. I’m not particularly keen on Noah but Simon is ghastly. Simple Simon.

Bapman · 15/09/2019 08:06

I like Lydia and Simon

Thanks Shmithecat2

Shmithecat2 · 15/09/2019 07:18

@DontForgetToDeadhead yes, 'wyn' is masculine in Welsh. Bronwyn is the anglicized of Bronwen. So Bronwyn for a girl in England is ok. I have a female cousin (Welsh dad, English mum) called Bronwyn.

DontForgetToDeadhead · 15/09/2019 06:23

Hopefully someone Welsh can come at confirm/rubbish this in a minute but I thought that the "wyn" ending implied male? So if it's a girl she should be Bronwen. I could be wrong though!

I like Noah and Bronwen - they seem like nicer, rounder, names to me. Simon and Lydia seem a bit harsh in comparison.

Lydia and Noah❤️

Newearringsplease · 15/09/2019 06:12

I've got a Bronwyn

Astronica · 15/09/2019 06:11

The only name there I really dislike is Noah (and it is way over-used.) Simon is a good traditional not over-used name.
I prefer Bronwen spelling.

Both Bronwyn and Simon, and Lydia and Simon are great pairs.

Lydia and Noah sound lovely to me!

Ginmel · 14/09/2019 21:50

Simon is okay, the rest sound weak

Grufallosfriends · 14/09/2019 21:28

I hate Noah - it sounds like a whiny Nooo

I like Simon and Lydia

Kanga83 · 14/09/2019 21:25

Love Simon, hate the rest

Shmithecat2 · 14/09/2019 21:23

Bronwyn and Simon

user1493494961 · 14/09/2019 21:21

Lydia and Simon, I think Simon is overdue a revival. Lots of Noahs, though it's a nice name.
