30 weeks with DC1 and really struggling with Scottish names

[dubai71]

Hi

We are looking for Scottish names and have thought of lots that we like but are not sure that we love any of them. We like names that are not overly popular/common, but do not like anything made-up sounding. We have tested some ideas out by subtly dropping them in conversation with friends but to date these ideas have been met with hoots of laughter! Having seen some of the great ideas you have come up with for other people, I thought I would put it out there...

For girls the current shortlist is: Flora, Ishbel, Florence and Kate Anne.

For boys it is: Archie (a family name but concerned it is too popular at present), Blair, Cameron, Hamish, Gregor, Monty, Ruaridh, Ranald and Lorne.

Any thoughts/ ideas...?

sorry Diarmuid.

I like all your original list with the exception of Florence.

Lots of lovely names suggested especially Gregor, I also like Keir (I have a Ciar) and Kerr. Can I also throw in Grant, Cairn, Bruce, Nairn, Tiernan & Moray?

For girls: Lorna, Shona, Kirsty, Fallon, Ismay or Morven?

Also Craig or Iain for boys

Katrine or Catriona, Morna or Rhona for girls.

Probably loads of repeats here but here is a list of all the Scottish babies I know (not necessarily all 'scottish" names):
Brody
Logan
Fraser
Stuart (very underused IMO)
Andrew
Bryson
Ennis
Aidan
William
Owen

Eilidh
Morven
Murran
Una
Mairi
