Naomi. I do like Dulcie a lot but it's so of the moment right now. Naomi will never be very popular, there'll always be a couple, so it'll age really well.

Ted for a boy.

Tessa
Ted

Depends on the surname too, it has to sound right.

I think both Tessa and Naomi are lovely, really dislike Dulcie though.
Elijah is my fave from the boys, I quite like Ted too, but Harry is a bit bland.

Tessa and Ted

Tobermory · 28/10/2010 21:46

Tessa is lovely, almost makes me want to try for DD3!

Boys, Harry probably.
I hear Elijah and think hobbit!

MrsJohnDeere · 28/10/2010 21:49

Like Tessa

Love Henry and Edward (middle names of my dcs) but really not keen on Harry or Ted.

Elijah for a boy.
Naomi or Tessa for a girl.

sunfunandmum · 28/10/2010 22:05

Tessa
Ted

Dulcie - Bit 'dull'
Tessa - sounds like a large girls name to me
Naomi - great, not too common

Elijah - great
Harry - too common
Ted - only ok as a NN, IMO

I only like Tessa or Dulcie. I like Teddy but not Ted.

Rhubarbgarden · 28/10/2010 22:36

Dulcie and Harry.

Hate Elijah.

SlaughteredSheep · 28/10/2010 22:38

Dulcie and Elijah

LetThereBeRock · 28/10/2010 22:45

Tessa and Elijah.They're both great names. I don't like the others.

Lovethesea · 28/10/2010 22:52

Tessa is lovely.

Dulcie jars with me badly, it's the 'dull, see' mentioned earlier.

Naomi would annoy me as I like it pronounced Nay-omi but know others would say Nigh-omi which I dislike. You might like both!

Elijah is great.

Harry is not my taste.

Ted I have never understood, does no one else think of teddy bears, teddy, ted, ted, ted - my 2 year old talks about teddy/ted every day and I just can't see it as a name for something without fur [hconfused]

BiscuitBob · 29/10/2010 14:16

Tessa and Elijah.

Harry is nice, but seems like half the boys I know are called Harry these days.
