VADER

Rory and Josie

Veda, I would pronounce like Bader (as in Darth)

I know so, so many Rorys. It's a lovely name but I do think it'll sound very 2019-2022 or whenever. I like Finn and Veda best.

Rory & Josie

I prefer Vida to Veda.

I definitely typed that with paragraphs... 🙄

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 06/02/2021 18:26

Finn or Rory - both equally lovely names. Ray just makes me think of a old man wearing a sheepskin coat in a betting shop 😂

and definitely Josie, which is a GREAT name!

I don't like Summer, having known a couple who were both, er, blessed with the least 'summery' dispositions imaginable.

I'm afraid I think Veda is dreadful.

Finn and Josie.

Love Rory
Finn ok but bit undistinguished

Don’t like any of your girl names - Veda and Josie I think are really undistinguished, and Summer I just find a bit twee and a bit of a burdensome name if she happens not to be a sunny soul

bairnk · 06/02/2021 15:05

Finn and summer

Rory and Summer, unless Josie is Josephine on the BC, in which case, Rory and Josephine Smile

Rory and Josie are gorgeous!

Also really like Finn and Summer is cute too.

ILoveStickers · 06/02/2021 14:19

Love Rory, one of my favourites!

Of your three girl names, I think I like Josie best.

I just heard of someone with a baby Vita, which I like better than Veda.
