DH is obsessed with the came Cassia. What does everyone else think? We had Cassius on our middle names list for DS2 (not brave/cool enough for it as a first name). He has a very specific taste in names which has made naming our boys very difficult, but we are finding naming a girl even harder. I don't think I have a 'style' I just like what I like, I think.

He also likes Cordelia, Maxima and Valeria. I don't hate any of them but they sound a bit pretentious and I'd worry about the judgement of others honestly - we don't live in a particularly 'cool' or affluent area where people use all sorts of unusual names. Children in our son's school are mostly Amelia, Harper, Olivia, Grace, Millie/Lily/Tilly, Oliver, Isaac, Harrison, Harry, Jack, etc.

I like June and Maggie (maybe Magdalena? DH would never go for just Maggie or Margaret). I can't seem to really like any others, which is unhelpful.

Boys names we liked were Magnus, Raphael, Victor, Conrad, Oswin, Bram, Laurence, Leander, Cassius, Aurelius. DH also fought hard for Casimir. I liked Asa.

I quite like Cassia! Haven’t heard it as a baby name before but it’s not too out there and could imagine someone in my child’s class with the name!

Cassiopeia?

Cassia just sounds unfinished.
