Hi all - will try again :)...
Any opinions / favourites on our current baby names, or similar names that could be options please? We don't know if baby is a boy or a girl but OH is half Spanish so would like the name to be Latin influenced.
If boy middle name will be Paul, if girl middle name will be Dawn. Plus our surname is pretty short and begins with D.

Girls:
Susanna
Daniela
Maria
Eleanor

Boys:
Lucas
Luis
Jamie
Thomas

TIA,
Paul

Hello.

I'm Spanish. Susanna and Eleanor are not Spanish - the equivalents would be Susana and Elena.

You seem to like traditional style names so things like these are Spanish but not overly so!

Laura
Marta
Ana
Sofia
Cristina
Sara
Carmen
Gabriela
Marina
Carlota

Boys:
Oliver
Markel
Javier
Sebastián
Simón

And here are the names shouted across the playground where I live:

Girls:
Maite
Malen
Miren
Amaia
Ainara
Valeria
Clara
Lea

Boys:
Iker
Aitor
Jon
Ander
Victor
Hugo

I love all your names. It's a lovely list. My favs would probably be Susanna & Daniela and Lucas & Jamie. I never really worry about middle names "going with" first as so seldom used.
