Love Lydia and Isaac.

The others are good as well.

I like Hope, not keen on Lydia and don't mind others for a girl.

Don't mind any of the boy names, probably like Douglas best- think it's due for a revival.

Not so sure about Constance although Connie is cute. John also no too sure about but really like the others.

I love Lydia, and like Constance and Hope. Martha is a bit 'meh'.

Love Isaac and Alexander. Intensely dislike Douglas (awful). John is a bit dull, although I do think Johnny is sweet.

Girls' names all fab. Not keen on any of the boys' list though sorry.

Edmundo · 24/02/2011 21:05

Martha and John get my vote

COCKadoodledooo · 24/02/2011 21:14

LOve all the ones on your girls list. Boys, I think Alexander is a bit meh, and Isaac is getting overly popular (or maybe I just know more than my fair share!).

OliveMalay · 25/02/2011 00:31

I like all except Martha and Douglas.

lovenest · 25/02/2011 00:36

Love Hope, Constance is cute too, also like Alex & Isaac. Good luck :-)

Thanks everyone.

Glad you like my choices in particular Wink

Still have a bit of a way to go but we might be getting to a shortlist.

Managed to escape major piss-taking (so far)
