Following on from a previous thread DH and I have done some serious thinking about baby names! We don't know what we are having yet but the name can't start with the letters A or C and it has to go with the surname Wilde. What do you think of some of these and other suggestions please. The list has changed a bit since last time-

Elise Wilde
Darcy Wilde
Matilda (Mattie) Wilde
Elena Wilde

Haydn Wilde
Todd Wilde
Logan Wilde
Ethan Wilde
Patrick Wilde

Suggestions also welcome! Do your worst :o

It's because we already have two DSs with names beginning with A and C so want to avoid confusion

Ahhh I get it now. I thought it was going to be because of some dodgy initials or something. I was worried for a short while.

only patrick from your boys list (others are horrid imo)
girls all 'ok' do you like dulcie\esme\phoebe\clara though as imo they're similar styles only better!

Matilda and Patrick are lovely, but I prefer Tilda as a nn for Matilda.

With a surname like Wilde, I think you need to steer clear of trendy names like Ethan and US type names like Todd, Darcy and Logan. You need something classic and Victorian/Edwardian. Elise and Elena are nice but a bit wispy compared to Matilda. Helena and Eloise would be better. Haydn is nice but not half the name Patrick is.

Dulcie would be Dull-sea.

My favourites out of those would be Elise and Haydn, how about Leon or Tabitha?

Matilda and Patrick.
Patrick vvv irish though, have you irish connections?
