Two syllables, classic, known but not common and outside the top 100. We can't find anything else we like.

Feel free to suggest any boys' names with the same criteria but we at least have some options for boys.

Any ideas welcome please!

Love quite a few of these thanks. A tricky surname so it's quite subjective whether they go or not.

Please keep them coming!

Oops. Blush

I agree with you. It is not common and outside the top 100. But it's a family name and sound too unique.

Any Ideas:
Miriam
Lucille
Martha
Marcelle
Lionel
Philip

MoonHare · 03/01/2014 12:45

I take it you can't use Frances? A shame as it is lovely. I Love the suggestion of Esther. But also how about the following, all outside the top 100 and 2 syllables;

Libby
Elsa
Thea
Polly
Hazel
Flora
Audrey
Agnes

Normanpriceisnotarolemodel · 04/01/2014 07:44

I know someone with a Frances and a Faryl.
