Wow! Lots of positive responses 😊

It would just be Finn, not as keen on Finlay @axolotlfloof - also, I see what you mean about Violet/Violent!!

Torn between Julia and Zoe. I think I'm swaying towards Luke for the boy name. I love William and Will, but I don't like Willy (I know he might not get called Willy, but its a possibility!) William is DH's favourite though.

Also re Zoe popularity, I am a bit concerned about that tbh. I'm going for a name that's well known and easy to say, but not overly used.

Violet and Finn

axolotlfloof · 30/04/2022 20:58

I like all your boy names. Will Finn be Finlay?
I am not keen on any of your girl ones, but particularly not Violet (too close to violent).

CambsAlways · 30/04/2022 20:57

I have a Zoe and a William. I love the name Luke as well.

MassiveSalad22 · 30/04/2022 20:56

And love William. Don’t know any little Williams! A classic but not stuffy.

MassiveSalad22 · 30/04/2022 20:55

I know of 2 brand new Zoës and seeing it loads on here if that bothers you! I’d go Juliet too as PP said. So beautiful!

I'd pick Finn from your boys list.
