Still struggling to get DH to agree on names for if this one is a girl.

We both like Tabitha and Phoebe, but I'm not sure that either work with DS's name Felix.

Tabitha and Felix = too feline!
Felix and Phoebe = although v different written down, they sound similar said aloud.

Do you agree or am I overthinking this? Thanks!

Thanks everyone, I love so many of these names (DavidHasslehoff your list is so close to mine - even with Caspar for a boy) but DH is too fussy.

I've been reading him out a few suggestions and he said - "why do you hate our child?" Grin so he's definitely going to need more work!

Lara is lovely.

Seminyak · 22/02/2014 22:32

Jemima was my first thought! :)

looki · 23/02/2014 00:01

Thea!!! Or Celestd. I love the name Celeste.

SilkStalkings · 23/02/2014 02:12

OP in that case you must note down ANY names that are only mildly dismissed and make him choose from thatGrin. Present a weekly list and ask which one he hates the least.

SabrinaMulhollandJjones · 23/02/2014 02:15

I know a Felix and Matilda. Lovely names.

ElectricalBanana · 23/02/2014 02:22
