Spam me with your favourite names

[NomDeClavier]

I am losing the plot slightly, especially with girls names, 11 weeks with DC2 and it seems the most important thing in the world that I have ideas for potential names without looking at the damn baby name book that seems stuffed with utter bizarre choices.

I just need inspiration!!!! So if you were going to have a baby tomorrow what would you call him/her? No restrictions on surnames or matched sibsets or anything.

My favourite girl's names are Ariadne and Eleri.

Boy's names: Philip (classic and underused) and Stephen

Although if I had a baby girl tomorrow I would call her Ismene (already used other choices!)

Here are the names I love, some of which are out because of existing DC, surname, exes, etc.

Annabel
Juliet
Christobel
Elizabeth
Eithne
Rosalind
Aisling
Edith
Genevieve
Harriet
Lydia
Marianne
Tabitha
Victoria
Theodora

Boys are tricky.

I love Isaac, Josh, Joshua, Daniel, Danny, Zachary, Jamie and Fraser.

Girls are harder. I like Bonnie, Jamie and Annabell :)

Niamh, Robyn, Lucy, Katie, Amelia. My DDs names are in there!
Boys - Jesse, Lawrence, Casper,

We had decided to call our DD after her grandmother and great grandmother so her first name was Elizabeth - then totally out of the blue she was so feisty from birth - well it only took 2 hours so she was wide awake and inspecting everything!- that she was 'Libby' and we had not even discussed that - have fun but be flexible perhaps?
I do have friends for whom the way their children were named still rankles - usually they were exhausted and hubby took it upon himself to do it his way! But I cannot imagine my DH doing something like that

Kit
Orla
Mariella
Camille
Hermione
Woody
