Can I have your thoughts on Clementine, Charlotte, Anna

My favourite is Clementine, but I don't know about the nicknames

DH likes Charlotte, nn 'Charlie' - I don't like Charlie but quite like Lottie.

We both like Anna - it just seems a little common (as in often used) in comparison with my other DC's slightly unusual names. Actually, so does Charlotte for that matter.

Boys name choice is Theodore/Teddy (I think)

I really like Anna and Charlotte.

Not so keen on Clementine, probably because I knew a nasty Clem at school.

Clemintine is nice but she would get called Clem (yuck).

Like the other 2 a lot.

Sorry should of said that i love Anna too. a simple, elegent name that suits a baby, little girl or an adult. I don't know any children called Anna so to me it is not a commonly used name.

my DH was not keen on Anna but did agree to Hannah for DD!

i prefer charlotte shortened to Lottie to Clementine. don't mind charlie but think that Charlotte is lovely as it is.

Not sure about Theodore or teddy think i prefer Theo as the shorter version
