I know you said DH thinks Genevieve is poncey but I know a lovely 14yo who has adopted the nickname Gen or Genna from it

freesias · 28/04/2011 20:24

love gabarielle /gabriella but wouldn't work as we already have a gabriel

i love genevieve will just need to twist dh's arm but he couldn't be persuaded last time

giselle is lovely but dh is very hard to please

gwen short for gwendolyn is also something i might shortlist

never heard glorieanna before but gloria is lovely

geraldine sory geri halliwell and the vicar of dibley spoil it for me

boys love amos sorry not so keen on boys name begining with f although wondering about fergal ot fergus

love grace but it's now so popular i'd rather not use it

I like Frederick best from your boys' choices, and Georgina for a girl.

Also like Francis, Aaron, Amos, Andrew, Grace, Gabriella and Gemma from other suggestions.

MayBankHoliday · 28/04/2011 20:35

Georgia, Gloria, Galatea, Galiana, Gregoria, Georgette?

topsyturner · 28/04/2011 20:38

Hubbys name is Fearghal , although feel you might have to be Irish or with Irish roots (as he is) to get away with this .

mybootsaremuddy · 28/04/2011 20:38

Sorry didnt spot your ds name. But Gabriella is lovely.

The origin of the baby name Glorienna is Latin with the meaning, Glorious.
Glorienna has the following similar or variant Names: Glorian Gloriana, Glorianna, Gloriane, glorianne, Gloriene Glorienne.
I went to school with one who was known as Lori, but u could use Gloria/Ana/Anne depending on what variant u used.

OP Finbar was a viz character...Grin

freesias · 28/04/2011 21:08

i'm irish ,dh welsh and we live in scotland so wecould use irish or welsh names will probably avoid scottish due to their popularity up here . although i do like angus.
that's ruled out finbar but really like fearghal
glorienna or glorianna is brilliant definitely top of my list
