Which of these for DC4?

[justanothermanicmonday]

I posted the other week with shortlist for probable baby boy. A few have been knocked off now and a couple of different ones added that I had forgotten about. DH not wanting to discuss seriously (he is v last minute but at least I am used to this now)! I have an idea of his taste though.

Boys:
Elias
Matteo
Raphael
Julius (would probably use the nn Jude as a bit much day to day)
Less likely to be accepted by DH but I like: Hugo, Nathaniel, Theodore.

In case of a girl:
Camille
Astrid
Paloma
Juliet

Thanks for your comments. Any similar suggestions would be wonderful.
By the way, we aren't Italian but baby is mixed race so darker skinned so I don't think the above names would seem strange for him/ us.

love Raphael and also Theodore (i have a theodore, he is theo mainly tho)

out of your girls names i LOVE Astrid, we considered this for our dd :)

Julius and Paloma are gorgeous! Classic but underused.

Love Raphael and Julius. I'd probably shorten Julius to Jules (Jude sounds a little girly imo).

Camille and Paloma are lovely too!

I like Elias, Nathaniel, Theodore, Paloma, Juliet.

It seems we have quite similar taste!

From your boys list I love Elias, Matteo and Raphael and don't mind Julius. Prefer Julian though and love Jude.

I really love all of the girls names, particularly Astrid and Juliette.

Currently on my list are -

Rex
Idris
Saul
Roman

Kerensa
Astrid
Delilah
Kezia

They might not be to your taste but I'll throw them out there as I love most on your list!

Elias and Paloma are my favourites

Paloma and Hugo

bamboozled- nice lists! I like Roman a lot too. I have had the 'c' word mentioned in relation to it though so it put me off slightly.
I love Kerensa and Delilah too. I find Cassia prettier than Kezia personally.

I've never considered Cassia before but it's lovely! Thanks for the suggestion

please use raphael just for me! Always wanted to use it but had3dd's!! love camille too. good luck with your ds,raphael!!!! He will be extra special with such a super name!!!!

Pleased you like Cassia bamboozled. I think it's lovely too!

I love Raphael too geranium.

Raphael and Juliet.

Matteo and Paloma

I like Matteo and Raphael for boys and Paloma and Juliet for girls.

Also like

Roman
Vincent

Carmen
Carlotta
Francine
Loveday
Jessamy

Thanks arthurandgeorge- I like all of your names. Loveday would be a great middle name!

Great lists!
My favourites are Jude and Paloma.
Other suggestions:
Ingrid
Etienne

Thank you poppy and everyone else who has replied.
Paloma seems v popular on here.

Any more opinions much appreciated.

Julia
Aurelia
Just adding my pennies worth!

I like Matteo and Elias for boys, Juliet and Astrid for girls.

I love Elias! And have added it to my list (will try it on DP later!)

I don't like the other names, sorry. How about these from my list;

Rueben
Cassius
Hugo
Lucian

Thea
I only have one girls name on my list!

justonemorethread- I love Julia and Aurelia (although still prefer Juliet).

lime- I like Hugo a lot but DH is unlikely to agree.

Bumping in the hope of a few further opinions!

Love Raphael - could see it being shortened to Ralph. Love Keziah for a girl as it is an ancestral name on my DH's side. Prefer Julia to Juliet.

Thanks storytopper. Raphael seems to be the most popular of the boy's names on here.

I love Elias and like Raphael. Matteo and Julius aren't good, sorry. Nathaniel is lovely. Theodore is OK, but Theo is very common now. Not keen on Hugo at all.

Your girls names are all lovely, classy names. My favourite is Camille, but they are all lovely.
