Currently pg with DC2. Already have an Edward (Ted).

What are opinions on the following? I want something to go with DS's name, that's posh-ish but not silly posh IYSWIM!!! And I DEFINITELY don't want anything faddy or too popular....

Boys:
Henry George
Tobias (Toby) (not sure about middle name, maybe George again)
Frank (again, not sure about middle name - this is a family name and I think we could just about get away with it what with the old name revival going on at the moment!!!)
Stanley

Other names I like but probably not on the list but just to give you some inspiration!!! - Finlay (too popular I think), Barney, Felix, Rafe, Arthur
Girls:
Nancy
Poppy (our surname begins with P though... I secretly like the PP sound Blush)
Evelyn (but Evie waaaaay too popular)

TBH I think I am settled on Nancy if it's a girl :)

Thoughts????

I love Tobias and Henry. Stanley is ok but I really don't like Frank. I think of Frank Butcher. I also love Felix and Rafe.

I love all your girls names. All beautiful

I like Tobias / Toby but with a Ted already, I wouldnt personally go for another 'T' name.
Dont like Frank or Henry. George is ok. Like Rafe and Finn / Finlay / Flynn.
How about Seth, Wilf, Barnaby, Albert?

Not keen on Nancy, sorry but if you love it, go for it!! Smile

Henry George - lovely, classic
Tobias (Toby) - a bit try-hard posh
Frank - old man fad
Stanley - old man fad
Felix - great, I like this

I don't like Finlay, Barney, Rafe, Arthur.

How about Frederick/Freddie, Charles/Charlie, John, Samuel?

Nancy - too frilly and silly
Poppy - like
Evelyn - nice but Eve/Evie/Ava/Eva far too popular

How about Clara, Juliet, Grace, Ivy, Emma, Abigail, Sophia, Naomi?

I have a Henry and Stanley is in the running for DC5, so they both get my vote Grin. Nancy is lovely too.
