Hi
I am only in my firat trimester but me and my OH already have some favourites names wise. I wondered what other people thought though.

For a girl we are pretty much settled on Savanna Brooke, its unusual and so I'm worried our parents wont like it, but it is a name which means something to us and reflects my OHs history so we are very keen on it.

For a boy we like Harvey Sebastian but I dont like Harv for short which is tricky....we also quite like Ryley and Dexter as first names so this one is less decided.

Any thoughts would be welcome. Grin

There,s a secret bit of me that desperately wants to call my baby dimples (I'm not joking!) luckily dp would rugby tackle me to the floor if I tried to register her as this! (Don't know what I'm having and v much hoping this is pregnancy hormones! )

I hope the op hasn't been frightened off mn for good as she could use the support if she is pregnant and her dh is away.
Susanna-Susannah
Joanna-Johanna
Hanna-Hannah
Savanna-Savannah
What on earth does it matter?It doesn't alter the sound of the name at all.

I have a 10 year old Savannah and
a) she is never called Sav, Savvy, Chav or Chavvy. Often Vannah but I quite like that.
b) we live in the home counties and she's at private school

There is also a Harvey in her class.

I quite like all your name choices except Dexter but Savanna and Harvey would be my favourites.

I like Cooper, not keen on Harvey (Jordan, and also So Solid Crew), love Sebastien (and Bastian).

Savanna Brooke is very American to me - not saying that's necessarily a bad thing, just pointing it out.

Ryley I'm not sure about - definite prefer Sebastian.
