Boy:
Rory - Love (favourite)
Brice (my fave so far) - not heard before will have a think and come back
Rupert - LOVE (favourite)
Hugo - Love
Roman - it’s an ok name (if slightly down market) but I’d personally avoid past years fastest rising boys name. Lots of lovely names to pick from I’d probably avoid this name as most likely to date.
Dimitri - hate
Blaise - never heard before. Not keen

Girls:
Pandora (nickname will be Panda, think this is so cute) - it’s ok
Margot - Love (favourite)
Juniper - love (favourite)
Wren - Love (favourite - can also be a boys name if you wanted)
Aerith - huh? No
Ebony - no
Lydia - Love
Astrid - don’t like but think this name is v popular on MN (but rare in real life)

And not sure if Blaise is suppose to be blaze? But I prefer Blake.

I like Brice but would have bryson with Bryce for short and that spelling.
Love roman and Lydia. Not keen on the others.

My DN is Pandora/Panda and I love it, so I’m biased. Kids can find a way to take the piss out of any name. Margot is lovely but getting very popular. Astrid is very cool. I like Juniper but think she’d have to be a particular sort of person to carry it off. Don’t like Wren at all.

Of your boys names Rory and Hugo are the only ones I like.

I like Brice and Roman.

Rupert and especially Rory, are very difficult to pronounce for people who struggle with their Rs

For a girl I like Pandora and Lydia. I dislike Margot.
