For a boy: Isaac Heath (Heath is a family name, not after Ledger).

For a girl: Sterren Rose. Sterren (meaning star) is Cornish - as are we and as is our crazy surname - and Rose is also a family name.

DS likes Lola Hmm; my mother likes Isolda (also Cornish-ish). DS, named Freddie, would have been called Polly had he been a girl but I think that Polly and Freddie sounds much too cutesy-wutesy.

Sterren or Isolda wouldn't be too weird here in a county full of Perans, Treeves, Morwennas and Demelzas but might she hate me when she goes away to university in a city full of people with 'normal' names?!

I knew a Sterrin at school and have never met another. I like it.

Isaac Heath is lovely.

Dammit, why didnt I know about Sterren when I had my dd!
Love it!

Love Sterren. It's absolutely beautiful and it makes me want to be Cornish.

Isaac Heath is loely too, but how about a Cornish name for a boy? I think Peran is gorgeous (although I suppose it would rule out Sterren for future DDs)

I know an Elowen which i think is lovely. Sterren is too Smile

Sterren is amazing. New to me, but fab.

Isaac is a bit meh.

I love both your girls names but do slightly prefer Isolde to Isolda. Not keen on Isaac but I do like Heath, despite having gone out with one years ago who was short for Heathcliff.

Isaac Heath is fantastic.

Sterren-horrible, sounds like Darren.

GoldFrakkincenseAndMyrrh · 01/01/2011 10:09

Isolde is on our girl list - I love it.

Sterren is beautiful too.

Isaac....is a bit meh after hearing the girls names. But I love Heath!

AnnOnimous · 01/01/2011 13:03

Never heard of Sterren before, but I think it is beautiful.

freerangeeggsI quite like Peran but I just can't get away from it sounding as though it's short for perineum!

Would be too tempted to call it Peran Ian Grin
