We had a family vote excluding any name that DH and I didn't both like and let the kids throw in their preferences too.

Opinions?

Edith by a country mile you best girl names it lovely
Like William and Ted if its a nn for Edward

I love Iris and Orla and Tor.

Iris
William
Are nice.

Not that keen on most of your names sorry.

Could also live with daisy & Thomas, but bit overdone.

Hester and William are my favourites. Is there one you would feel disappointed not to use?

Love adelaide edith iris and orla. For the boys I like ramsey (reminds me of ramses) and your last four boysnames

I was just reading the April thread and wondered what your shortlist was

I prefer Orla and William

Edith, Hester, Iris
Ted/Edward, Thomas, William.

Elliot and I know you are not looking for suggestions but have you considered Orly?
How are you pronouncing Tamar?

There's none really that I couldn't live without.

Tamar is pronounced like the river (Tay-mar).

Amy or Thomas.

Really like that.

Although I do really like Amy, just worry that it might be too plain.

Iris is the nicest girls name, also like Amy Adelaide and daisy.

Boys definitely Elliott. Also like William Thomas, ted if the full Edward with ted as short version

I love Hester not keen on any of the boys names

Absolutely love Hester. Like Daisy and Edith. Really don't like Star, Adelaide, Delta or Tamar.

Love Ted as nn but not given name. Like Thomas and William. Really don't like Ramsay, Hunter, Sawyer and Tor.

Edith or Hester, although I prefer Ester.

Only like William out of your boys.

Edith
William

Love Adelaide, Edith, Hester, Iris and Orla.

Your boys names are less my style, but Ted as a nn for Theodore or Edward is awesome, Tor is cool and Thomas and William are classic. Hunter and Sawyer are so trendy right now that I think they will date badly (half the boys in mothers group are Cooper/Hunter/Archer etc - basically all the medieval occupations list).

Congratulations and good luck!

Girls favourites:

Hester and Orla are lovely! Not keen on Tamar or Delta.

Elliot and Tor are great too! Don't like William (Willy!) or Ramsay, sorry.

I think I've managed to narrow down the girls names to Orla/Orlaith, Amy and Iris.

Orla is a beautiful name, Amy has been popular for many years, but I find it a little dull. Iris is on the up. I'm not over keen but then again its not my baby! I adore the name Ted for a boy, quite like it as a nn for Theodore. William has always been a favourite of mine too & if I had a DC3, it would have had William for either a first or middle name (nn Billy).

Congratulations OP!

Edith, iris, orla. Edith especially (big despicable me fan!). Not fond of any of the boys' names - sawyer at a push.

I much prefer Aimee to Amy.

Also like Orla.

Boys - Ted or Elliot

Not Delta or Hunter. With your surname sounds oddly like some kind of phonetic alphabet.

Amy is fine, if that's your favourite. Boring if your surname was Smith (I know one and she was one of three Amy Smiths in her class) but fine with yours. Adelaide (Ada?), Tamar and Edith much cooler.
