Possibilities for a DC2..

I love all the boys names and would struggle to choose but I'm only really confident about Merryn for the girls, any suggestions?

I like Rory best of your boys names, and Lillian best of your girls names.

I dont like Dexter or Romy.

Honestly, I'm not very keen on any of the boys names.

And the only girls name I like is Lillian.

However I have very (what I myself would class as) boring taste in names and they're a bit out there for me!

I love Rory.
I only heard Romy for the first time recently, on here I think. I didn't like it then but it has already grown on me so I would choose Romy.

I only like Merryn from your list.
But REALLY like it Grin

I really like your boys list. Particularly Caspar.

Not keen on your girls list, Lillian is the best of the bunch.

Dexter is a bit too surname to me, the others are nice though.

ChubbyLittleLoser · 19/02/2014 22:26

I really like Lillian with the nn Lil but is it inevitable it would get shorted to Lily? Which is nice but very very popular.

And tbh I would prefer Caspian to Caspar (Narnia geek) but got the Hmm Confused reaction too much!

We had Dexter and Flynn on our shortlist for dc2, I also loved Arlo but dh wasn't keen - we now have a 21 month old ds called Flynn. I like Romy and Indie of your girls names but prefer India.

I've got a bit of a boring taste (even I think so!) and your taste is a bit wacky for me. I like Rory though.

ToffeeJungle · 20/02/2014 17:49

I like Flynn and Lilian.

Dexter and Merryn are ok.

Other suggestions:
Finn
Flint
Max
Tobias
Milo

Seren
Bryony
Eden
Willow
Athena

I like Rory best from your boys list, not at all keen on Dexter. Prefer Finn to Flynn, which makes me think of Tangled. Caspar is OK and Arlo would be a no for me too.

Merryn is lovely, was on out shortlist for DD3. Lillian is nice, Indie would be a no and Romy is OK but I prefer Romily.

You asked for suggestions;

Milo, Oscar, Tristan, Tobias, Wyatt, Jasper.

Esther, Ursula, Lydia, Tabitha, Esmé, Thea.

minipie · 20/02/2014 18:27

I like Dexter and Rory. Arlo is OK. Not so keen on Caspar or Flynn but don't hate them.

I like Merryn and Romy and Lillian. Indie is a nn to my ears - India?

Magicstars · 20/02/2014 18:31

My favs-
dexter, Flynn & Caspar.
Lillian

Merryn is a brilliant name! I also like all your boys names too, although am less keen on Dexter compared to the others.
