Love the name Persephone, but we can't use it for future DC as we already have a Penelope - we think the names are too similar!

@Fawnandwren I have a Constantine! It felt like a brave choice tbh but I love bold names. Waiting for him to grow into it tbh Grin

I’ll add:
Isidor, Theodore and Leo (those two are too popular for me but I love them)
Beatrice (doesn’t work in my second language), Magdalina (actually I would totally use this, just need a DD!), Anna.
