Can you give us a clue as to how your taste runs, name-wise?

What names do YOU like, op?

I think a long name goes better, one with 3 syllables like Christopher or Rosanna

I like unusual names and think the last name can take it!
Avery, Emerson, Remy and Galen are contenders.

Aah, are you expecting another one? I think I used to chat to you on the October '10 antenatal thread! When I clicked on this thread I was thinking 'Timothy', which probably doesn't help as not very unusual... I like Remy

Yes was me ooosabeauta... But no im not expecting. Actually tapping into the the collective brilliance of mumsnet on behalf of my sis! Reckon if anyone can sort this ye can!!

Emerson Daunt sounds fab!

Ashton
Ellis
Murphy
Bentley
Elvin
Benedict
Sebastian
Tristan

I agree that a name with 3 or more syllables is good.

I thought of Olivia for a girl - it works! Also Sebastian, Elizabeth, Victoria, Alexander, Antonia, etc

So I vote for long rather than short. With short names, because the surname is an actual word it sounds a bit like you are just making a longer word but with a longer name it is obvious that there are 2 words/names IYKWIM.

I think a longer first name sound good with a short surname like Daunt. I would avoid 3 syllable names as these inevitably get shortened (to another one syllable name!), so how about these 2 syllable names:

Clara Daunt
Martha Daunt
Quentin Daunt
Aston Daunt

Sticking with the longer names:
Matilda
Cordelia
Angelica
Francesca
Octavia
Naomi

Cornelius
Lysander
Theodore
Simeon
Elijah
Isiah

I have come round to your way of thinking ladies! Put these past my sister and def longer names are more up her alley! She was actually excited about af few! Well done ....i knew ye would be the best source!!

Sebastian daunt is brilliant

But he may up as Seb Daunt which isn't so nice imo. That's the risk with too long names, they inevitabely get shortened...

Girls:
Lexi Daunt
Daisy Daunt
Katy Daunt
Jasmine Daunt
Delphine Daunt

Boys:
Dustin Daunt
Isaac Daunt
Victor Daunt
Cory Daunt

I really really like Imogen Daunt, she sounds like a RSC player.

Or Sebastian Daunt, def.

I knew a lovely lady named Frances Daunt. Always loved her name.
