Rate my girls and boys 'short' shortlist please

[bytheMoonlight]

These lists is a combination of names dh and I like.

Can you say what you think of each name and which you like best please!

Girls:
Dulcie
Florence
Renee
Georgia
India
Charlotte

Boys:
Edward (Ted)
Reuben
Harry
Albert

Harry and Georgia are nice.

Edward is ok, don't like Reuden or Albert.

Don't like Dulcie, Florence is going to be everywhere now because of the Camerons and people will ask you if you named the baby after her (fine if you want to btw), Renee not great, India is too 'trendy', Charlotte is nice.

Obviously just my opinions.

I like Charlotte.

To me, the rest are meh.

Hi,

Dulcie - not to sure how to pronounce
Florence - like but not shortened to Floss/ie
Renee - Really like
Georgia - not so keen
India - quite like
Charlotte - Favourite from list, really like and considerd it if ours had been a girl, love Lottie for short

Edward - quite popular where we live, not too keen
Reuben - really like
Harry - like
Albert - not sure

Good luck deciding

Dulcie - really not sure.

Florence - lovely but may be very popular soon

Renee - don't like at all. Sorry

Georgia - quite nice

India - lovely pretty name

Charlotte - another lovely name. The shortened "Lottie" is even better.

Edward - traditional, nice but not my favourite.

Reuben - I really love this name. Don't think its overused either

Harry - lovely.

Albert - Not sure. Think it may become more popular in the future

Dulcie is lovely and Ted is the best of your boys names

Girls:
Dulcie - either old fashioned or too cutesie
Florence - nice but popular (and do you really want to follow the Cameron lead?)
Renee - like
Georgia - bored of this now
India - my fave I think
Charlotte - boring, although Lottie is nice (and quite popular too)

Boys:
Edward (Ted) - prefer Ned as a NN
Reuben - ok, bit indifferent to this
Harry - ok but v popular
Albert - I'd worry he'd get called Bertie which is a bit tragic once he's out of infant school

I like Charlotte and Reuben. Mind you, the names on your shortlist are all so different that perhaps you won't know what will suit until your baby is born. I had a whole list of names which I did not use once dd3 was born because they didn't suit her so I had to come up with something else.

India and Reuben really stand out to me

We are going to have to wait till dc2 is born in less than 9 weeks time as we simply cannot decide, but I really appreciate opinions as it helps me look at the names in different ways

Girls:
Dulcie - like, oldfashioned and sweet - also like Elsie a lot
Florence - ditto comments above re camerons etc, a bit bored of this name now
Renee - actress
Georgia - love!
India - not to my taste personally, what about indigo?
Charlotte - I find this name boring/horsey, but that's just me

Boys:
Edward (Ted) - uncontroversial, nice
Reuben - like a lot
Harry - like very much but come across millions at nurseries etc
Albert - like and has good nn's - Bertie for a little one, Al for a teeange, Bert for an old man.. what about Edgar or Henry? they seem similarish to your names.

I love Renee and Reuben

Not too keen on Dulcie or Flossie

Florence is a nice name but will probably get very popular thanks to baby Cameron! Edward and Harry are quite popular too. I like all the others though

In order of preference:

Dulcie - my favourite of the list
(Renee
Georgia
Charlotte) - no strong feelings about these 3, G.& C. a bit bland if I dare say so, but there are worse things for a name to be. I do like Georgie as a nickname for Georgia.
(India
Florence) - dislike these 2

Boys:

Edward (Ted) - yes, love it and this nickname
Harry - handsome
Albert - like it
Reuben - dislike, have never understood the appeal

So... Dulcie and Edward!

Dulcie..disliek, abit odd
Florence..abit old granny
Renee..dislike
Georgia..too popular about 10 years ago but OK
India...like
Charlotte..boring

Edward (Ted)...like Ted, edward abit too popular now, all the geeks were called that when i was at school
Reuben..dislike
Harry...like it
Albert...not that keen, bit old man but Bertie is cute
