Currently expecting third baby and determined not to find out the sex this time so considering boys and girls names

Dh likes the following for a boy:

Henry
Noah
Adam

I like Luca/Lucas but nothing grabs me at the minute so suggestions gratefully received.

We're pretty much set on Rose for a girl but I'd like to give her my mum's name as a middle name so she would be Rose Ivy. Everyone seems to think that Ivy Rose flows better but would it be odd to give her this combo and still call her Rose?

Noah is too popular imo. I think Henry goes best with you are other two as they are quite different and although Daniel goes well with Adam it makes Roman stick out a bit iyswim. I also like George for a boy. I think Rose Ivy sounds fine, its not like you'd be using the two together very often anyway.

I like Noah and Adam but think Adam and Roman are too similar. Love Luke/Lucas.

Am not sure Daniel, Roman and Rose actually goes very well as Roman and Rose are similar.

Ivy Rose flows better but it is up to you.

Think Rosalind or Rosamund would be nicer and Rose as a nname.

Just my opinion of course!

Like Adam and Noah. Agree that Roman could stick out a bit so Noah would be better. Or Luca.

Henry is lovelySmile Not a fan of Noah, and as wellies says it is very popular at present! Adam is a tad ordinary for me.

Love Colonel's suggestions, a few more for you:

Alexander
Amadeus
Atticus
Balthazar
Bastian
Cassian
Damian
Edward
Ezekiel
Inigo
Nathaniel
Phineaus
Sebastian
Theodore -Teddy

Love the name Rose, but Ivy Rose does flow better. How about adding a longer mn between the two, for example: Rose Elizabeth Ivy 'your surname'?

Thanks everyone

My mum made the same point about poor Roman sticking out like a sore thumb if the other two had ordinary names (she was never a fan of it!)

I thought Rose might be a bit much with Roman too but dh won't be swayed at the moment. I liked Harriet, Emmeline (Emmy), Daisy and Arianna but he's managed to find something wrong with all of those - it would be so much easier if he didn't have a say!

Surname is George so that rules it out as a first name and names starting with "J" sound a bit odd, eg James George is a tad snappy.

I've always loved Amadeus but don't think I'd be brave enough to use it (especially with a Belfast accent). Also like Amadea as a middle name for a girl but dh is from the Middle East and there are rigid naming structures - even a girl will have to have his first name and his father's name as her middle names so I can't really add more than one middle name or it will become ridiculous

Tobias and Theodore are strong contenders - Teddy is very sweet for a baby

Also liking Eli and Kit (though dh scoffed at the latter)

I don't think Rose goes well with Roman and Daniel, too similar to Roman imo.

I love Amadeus too (Boris Becker just had one, I think) and think it would go well with Roman and Daniel. How about Quentin or Dominic?
