DH asked me to post this thread lol , because we cannot decide and he is so sure his favs are just of better taste. We don't know the sex yet. He likes the names I like , and I like his. But "my" names just seem more beautiful. PLEASE DECIDE FOR US :

Levi or Daniel
Harper or Mary

Thank youuuu

I’m trying to think fairly classic with a little edge

LightDrizzle · 10/12/2020 22:21

Cadence is on a level with Melody Confused

Ithinkim · 10/12/2020 22:21

Leah is okay out of the next list, none of the others for me.

Mamagotskills · 10/12/2020 22:20

Cadence to me is a word I use at work to mean rythym - just don’t think of it as a name

Hate Mary

Ithinkim · 10/12/2020 22:19

Harper is too Beckham and Daniel is my worse ever name.

I'd go Mary and then rethink.

That's the issue , him and I have very different tastes Sad

The name I really love is Levi.
What would a "in the middle name" be ?
Haha I love the reactions to Cadence , dh really thinks it's a posh , intelligent name.

Daniel and Mary

HunterHearstHelmsley · 10/12/2020 22:15

Tristan
Matthew
Austin
Manny

Zoe
Hannah
Leah
Cadence

Tristan and Zoe are the best of a bad lot. But I wouldn't consider calling any of my children these names. Only if it was that or nothing.

Disfordarkchocolate · 10/12/2020 22:15

Daniel

I don't like either girls name I'm afraid.

Mamagotskills · 10/12/2020 22:13

Just saw your new list... only one I like out of that lot is Zoe

Peachypips78 · 10/12/2020 22:12

Not keen on the second set of boys' names- girls' names are nice except for Cadence which is awful!

MrsCrosbyNRTB · 10/12/2020 22:12

Mary and Levi

Austin and Leah

Mamagotskills · 10/12/2020 22:12

Don’t really like any of them if I’m honest.

Boys, Daniel at a push
Girls, maybe Harper, Mary feels like a middle name I think

They are so different though, is there nothing in the middle?

JiltedJohnsJulie · 10/12/2020 22:11

Daniel and Mary

ForeverInADay · 10/12/2020 21:59

Daniel and Mary.

I'm biased as I know a Levi I'm not keen on though!

whiteroseredrose · 10/12/2020 21:58

Matthew and Hannah for me.

But I'm 55 so probably have old fashioned taste.

AcrobaticCardigan · 10/12/2020 21:57
