i have an Isaac David James who's 11 and a Tallulah Jean Honey who is 5 - i love my sons name but with my DD's I still absolutely adore it and she was gonna be called that before I even knew I was pregnant and always get complimented on such a pretty and unusual name - now I am pregnant with #3 i really dont think i will find a name i love half as much.

i like for boys:
Oscar
Roan
Arthur
Noah

and for girls:
Jemima
Matilda
Elsie
Dixie

but none im truly set on!!!! anyone had the same feeling? any advice and super gorgeous unusual names????

I feel exactly the same - DD is Phoebe Alexa -which I totaly love.
Now pregnant with DC2 and know what you mean about not finding a name I love as much...DH and I have had several that we've discussed and then been not so keen on a few days later...very difficult!

Not sure how unusual/gorgeous you'll think these are but here are some that we've wondered about:

For boys:
Dexter
Matthew
Stanley
Zachary
(middle name will be very biblical/religious sounding)

For girls:
Vanessa
Adele
Talia
Sadie
(middle names will be old lady names after our grandmas)

I love the name Tallulah, how about Ottilie, Romilly, Dulcie, Meredith or Miriam to be her sister

Jemima and Matilda go well with Tallulah as same rhythm.

What about

Delilah
Arianna
Arielle(a)

I like all your boys names except Roan (but like Ronan), although suspect they are all v popular (Arthur least so)

Yay, a Tallulah, I love your DD's name!

I agree Jemima is lovely too, compliments Tallulah and Isacc very wellSmile

Some more suggestions for you:

Artemis
Aurelia
Cosima
Paloma
Pandora

I know it's rather plain, but I think Maria or Christine goes quite well.
