Have started thinking about names and throwing them around with DP (who doesn't seem to like any of the ones I do and vice versa) but in addition i'm struggling to find names I really like to go with DS's name (Kyle - and chosing that in itself was a struggle!). Surname is 2 syllables and begins with F (so sadly all F names are out!).

Although it's not a firm requirement i'd quite like something celtic. What are your thoughts on some of these names? Any suggestions most welcome! (sorry i've listed rather a lot!!)

Boys
Joel
Harris
Rory
Jake
Hamish
Eden
Jay
Lachlan
Magnus
Pascal
Zane

Girls
Melody
Cassie
Cerys (absolutely LOVE this name but really not sure, think it sounds too similar to DS's?)
Seren
Tegan
Saskia
Agnes
Astrid
Hannah
Niamh
Naomi
Esme
Iris
Skye
Harmony
Hope
Holly
Megan
Zadie
Nesta

How about Struan for a boy? I love that name :) Harris is really lovely too.

Declan didn't sound like a child's name to me (just a man's name if that makes sense!)

Newsflash: children grow up to become men and women.

DP vetoed Struan :( I really like it.

I think both Cerys and Carys sound similar to Kyle but I like it too much to not consider using it, despite the similarities! Do you think it matters?

Rory is the best name /biased

I know a girl who has an older Kyle, her younger is called Leo

I like Carys (obviously prefer Cerys because I have one) but my only slight concern is if you're in/around the ayrshire area Kyle and Carys may make people think Kyle and Carrick, but that may not be a concern for you.

I like all of your girl choices...they were all on our shortlist at one time or another.

Pity about Struan, I really like it too.

We are NE (Scotland) based agora. I do love Struan (and Lachlan!)
