What do you think of these?

[FriggFRIGG]

Okay,I feel I must confess,I'm not pregnant or even TTC yet,
but DP has just agreed to try for a 3rd DC in the near future.

I love names....

So I have gotten all excited and I now have a long list,I'd love you opinions on these,and any other ideas,thanks!

Boys:

Rudy
Fabian
Phineas
Rupert
Orinn
Artie
Rafe
Osin

Girls:

Betsy
Clara
Myrtle
Etta
Clementine
Esma
Mabel
Ottilie

Middle names are likely to be the family names either
Edward or Nicholas
And
Beatrice or pip

Other DC are Sky and Arlo

Well there's nowt like planning ahead

Instinctively I like

Sky, Arlo and .....Rudy

Sky, Arlo and ..... Etta.

Also Betsy.

Those are our combined favourites!
IYSWIM?!

You are clever

I love them all!

Fabian is a long standing fave of mine. Dh said nope. I named the dog Rupert after i gave up asking for that for a child too! The latest ds is called Arthur, Artie for short.

I have used most of those girl names for the rabbits and chickens as we are thin on the ground with girls.

I love Fabian, Rafe, Betsy and Ottilie.

My DP said no to all of them

Absolute favourite girl name is Dorothy. Aphra also a fab name.

Dammit Kayz! They would go so well with the boys names too.

Oh and Artie's middle names are Octavius Rafe.

You really do have excellent taste

I know LG&T, they would be brilliant. Though this one is meant to be a girl, girls names are hard.

I have a ton of girl names i could never use. Will dig the list out later and fb them all to you.

Fabian and Clara from your list. We found girls' names easier and liked:

Meredith
Meryl
Corinna
Rhiannon
Tamsin

Oh I quite like Meredith....

What NN could you have for that?

Merry or Edie I would have thought.

Sorry, not keen on the boys names. Rafe is the best IMO.

Of the girls names, Clementine is quite nice and usual. Not keen on the rest, again sorry.

S'alright sue if we all had the same taste,life'd be a dull thing

Boys:

Rudy - no
Fabian - love this
Phineas - horrid
Rupert - lovely
Orinn - no
Artie - horrible
Rafe - no
Osin - no

Girls:

Betsy - only as nn
Clara - like
Myrtle - no
Etta - no
Clementine - no
Esma - not but love Esme
Mabel - okay
Ottilie - no

Merry would be nice for a little girl,

Meredith or Edith for a woman....

hmmm could work well.

I guess I'm just a little more conservative!

remus how queer that you should be here....I'm using this thread as a distraction....I'm watching the last potter for the first time,im on my own.....

and I'm bluddy terrified.

Oh,what would you use as a full name for Betsy?
My main twinge about it was that I couldn't see it on a full grown woman.

Boys:

Rudy
Fabian
Phineas (NN Phin)
Rupert (NN Ru)
Orinn
Artie
Rafe
Osin

Girls:

Betsy (full name?)
Clara
Myrtle
Etta
Clementine
Esma/Esme
Mabel
Ottilie
Meredith (NN Merry)

Love Myrtle for a girl, like Clara too...

How about Orion for a boy? I've always liked it but haven't been brave enough to use it.

I thought about it,but I couldn't take the chance it'd be shortened to or mistaken for Rion (Ryan)
I wouldn't like that at all...

Oh the last film is SO good - you'll love it!

How about Remus to join your boys' list? :)

Betsy - Elizabeth is the obvious, I guess? Libeth, maybe? Bethany?

I do love Remus,Sirius and Lupin BUT I think they are to closely associated with potter now
