Matilda - the Roald Dahl book
Harriet - have a lovely friend by that name so I like it!
Imogen - wish I didn't know this, but a bimbo girl who was once on Big Brother...
Eleanor - of Aquitaine
Elizabeth - the I and II - like both of them, a really classic name

Oliver - Jamie Oliver!
Isaac - no distinct associations, nice name
Wilfred - bit old-fashioned
Sebastian - like it. But it does make me think of Brideshead Revisited
Blake - the God-awful 'Classical boy band'

Matilda - the Roald Dahl heroine
Harriet - my DD (aka Hattie)
Imogen - Shakespeare
Eleanor & Elizabeth - names that have too many nicknames (I'm fussy so only choose names with nicknames that I like)

Oliver - my brother
Isaac - the Bible
Wilfred - war poet
Sebastian - poorly behaved child I once taught
Blake - not sure, but it doesn't fill me with happy thoughts!
