Half Greek baby due imminently. Sex unknown. Will likely live in both UK and Greece.

Given that my previous thread has confirmed Thanos is unusable in the UK - please give me your suggestions for both boy and girl names!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Tricky, no suggestions apart from try to avoid those with an "English" pronunciation which is different! Some years back I taught an Irene (pronounced i - as in it - ray knee) which is beautiful in the Greek pronunciation. Less so when said the way it is in the song "Goodnight Irene". I also taught an Iphigenia (pronounced Iffy yen knee ah) also beautiful in the Greek but she ended up correcting people who pronounced it Iffy jen nigh ah as in "Iphigenia in Tauris"
