Beau or Gabriel, Poppy or Juliet

[mummabug]

Have a DD called Amelie Lola..pregnant with my second and we don't know the sex yet. Was thinking of continuing the French theme with Juliet for a girl and Gabriel for a boy. But OH is not keen. He likes Beau for a boy and Poppy for a girl. I like them but think Beau could be taken the p* out of at school (B.O?!) and Poppy is lovely but maybe too common.
Every other name I mention he doesn't like!!

Any opinions on these names..or suggestions to go with sibling Amelie?

Much prefer your choices. Classier, and will date less. Amelie and Juliet sound gorgeous together :)

I like the name Beau, much prefer it to Gabriel IMO.

We had Poppy as our girl's name for DS1, but agree with you that it has become very popular and don't think I would name it for baby 3.

A friend named her little girl Lily Anouk (think it was after the little girl in Chocolat). I quite like Elise, think that is French?

Gabriel and Poppy.

Love all the names apart from Beau which sounds abit american to me for some reason. (I mean, I know it's French just sounds like sort of name an American might be called).

Juliette is my personal favourite.

Not Beau

Gabriel and Juliet

Thanks for the feedback.
I have definitely decided we can't have Beau. It sounds too feminine and too much potential for teasing at school...little bo beep..? B.o...?

Gabriel I like but OH dead against. Back to the drawing board.

Leo?

I used to love Milo...but not sure now a lot of people say dog/tweenies when I mention it. I also like Caspar but OH against.

Poppy is lovely but yes too popular unfortunately.

Other girls names I like are Vivienne, Violet (too popular?) and Belle.

Jude?

Nora?

i love Gabriel and Beau

ds2 is Gabriel, and we had Beau on the list for him and DS3

also like Juliet and Poppy as well! both lovely names

round here I would say Violet is a lot more popular than Poppy

Elias?

Jonah?

I prefer your choices; well, I actually like your choices. Not too keen on Beau though I could live with Poppy, I suppose.

Your choices are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay nicer. Beau is awful I'm afraid. Poppy not much better.

I prefer your choices too! How about Celeste for a girl, to continue the French theme?

Camille?
Hugo?

I like Beau, I can see how he could be called b.o. as another poster mentioned but then Gabriel would be called Gay, there are very few names that can't be turned into a negative nickname.

Out of the girls choices it would be Juliet purely because she'd be less likely to have a few schoolmates with the same name.

Beau => don't do it

Juliette (French spelling) is pretty too. Gabriel also very nice.

I know a Harry Beau

Gabriel and Juliet

Vivienne and Juliet are lovely.
I think Poppy is very insubstantial. Nice as a nn for something else and maybe charming for a baby and little girl, but not a name for a woman in her 40s.

How about
