What is everyones top 5 for each sex? Not pregnant yet but trying, and we think we have first names picked out for girl and boy but sometimes dot around our top 5. Also open to finding new names to sway me! I'll start:

Boys: Sullivan, Elliot, Archer, Harvey and Hayes

Girls: Lyla/Lylah, Amélie, Nora, Eliot and Joie

Oh and Saorsie - love that name.

I have a 6 year old Sullivan so obviously that's my pick.
I don't know if any others except my 3rd cousin has a 2 year old son named Sullivan.

Eliot, Brandon, Lachlan, Vaughn and Griffin were all on my lists for both DSs. I would use Griffin if I were to have DS3.
I also have a Carter (DS1) so I guess we have similar tastes!

Girls were Leah, Alannah, Sloane, Dylan, Valentina (Leni)
