Expecting dc2 in September, already have DS with cornish name beginning with J. We want to continue with the Cornish thing if possible but haven't been struck by anything as yet. Any thoughts?

Tamsin is cornish and very pretty.

for a boy, Denzil is traditional, but not sure how it would stand today.

they are the only cornish names i know

I think naming the baby after place names down the road may cause a bit of here! Thanks though!

Know quite a few Kerenza/sa s... there's some really sweet names and some blinking weird ones...oh I don't know. Am thinking I may have made a rod for my own back here

Last time we were going to use Senara as the girl name, but don't feel like i can 're-use' this time, IYKWIM?

I have a friend who's daughter is called Loveday which is apparently a Cornish girls name.

Kerenza means 'love' in Cornish. (for a girl). I know a few girls called Kerenza.
What about Logan for a boy?
