I am having our third baby (not right this moment though) and am thinking of the following names. If you have any thoughts on the matter, please let me know what you like.

Boys
Christian (nn Kit)
Hector (nn Tor)
Dashiell (nn Dash)
Angus

Edward or Benjamin for middle name.

Girls
Claudia
Valentina (poss nn Nina)

No middle names yet.

Already have a Penelope (Pen, Penny, Penelope) and a Constance (Connie) who are 2 and 1 respectively.

Am not easily offended.

Thanks!

christian - nah

claudia - yes

Not Tina!

Never seen the Incredibles, but someone did say that last year when I had my #2 name thread going - was it you Slarty?

Off to google Hector's House.

No more eee names at the end I think - hence Valentina and Claudia.

I like Christian (Chris) and Angus. Really dislike Hector (bully!), but Tor on its own is nice.

I love Valentina - beautiful and feminine. Works well in most languages (German, Spanish, French etc). Underused classic - great choice!

Don't like Claudia (Claudus = disabled in Latin) or Juliet (too harsh imo).

I like Juliet or Vivienne (clearly) but would say Philippa is lovely too with your girl's names, and I never think of it as a boys' name first.

Kit or Angus do it for me as boys' names.

And if you like Tor, but have gone off Hector, Torryn is nice, (BBC reporter Torryn Douglas). Might be Torrin, not sure.

Oh, and my final girl's offering (honest!) Erica.
