Ok so here i am.. asking the same thing as everyone else...

A nice name for our LO, that is not too common, (as in they will prob be the only one in their class) but also not too "out there"!

It is our first, so i have no idea of what names are common at school!

is Chloe still very poplular? I love Elka (girls), but it is my cousins name, so i cant pinch that one!!

Patrick for a boy
Clemency or Maud for a girl.

LOL at Maud... although I probably shouldn't!

Yesterday I heard a mum call out to her LO - Bertie. Then her friend called her LO - Audrey.

I always hear people say on here that Chloe is popular, but I don't know any children called that atm. I'd say go with it if you like it.

How about Marley for either a girl or a boy? (nicer than Madison or Harley imo)

Ailsa
Louisa
Celia/ Cecelia
Lena
Madeleine
Elise
Carys

What about Marnie? It is a nn for Marjorie, which is a pretty name and not yet 'rediscovered'.

You can spell it how you like, Marney, Marni etc
