Boy pairs :
Liam James or Ryan Elliot.
I don't like the other pairings.

Girl pairs:
Harriet Rose

Don't like Harley or Camryn for a girl at all; Laura Jane is very plain, and Amelia Leigh sounds almost like immediately with lots of glottal stops.

NerrSnerr · 03/02/2015 04:08

Jacob Alexander and Harriet Rose.

Liam James
Harriet rose

ButterflyOfFreedom · 03/02/2015 05:25

Zachary Ross or Jacob Alexander

Laura Jane or America Leigh

  • Amelia not America!!
Blahia · 03/02/2015 06:49

Zachary Ross or Harley Marie.

I love Amelia, but with the Leigh it might be abut too many 'lee' sounds for me? But if you don't plan on saying the middle name much then I vote for this!

And congratulations on the pregnancy!

I like Harriet - I taught a kid called 'Hatty' - she was a superstar!

Sophronia · 03/02/2015 13:02

Jacob Alexander or Zachary Ross for a boy, Harriet Rose for a girl.

Bowlersarm · 03/02/2015 13:04

Zachary Ross - really nice

Laura Jane

Amelia Jane. Much better than Amelia Leigh.

And Zachary Ross

Harriet Rose

RufusTheReindeer · 06/02/2015 13:24

Sorry, but why those pairings?

See I like Ryan Alexander Danielson...but I know that's not the right pairing

Otherwise my favourites are Liam James and Harriet Rose

wesH · 06/02/2015 13:50

I like Riley but it goes better with one of your other second names. Jacob Alexander is good tho

for the girls:
Laura Jane
or
Camryn Elizabeth

GingerLDN · 06/02/2015 15:21

Does it have to be those exact pairings? For a girl Harriet Rose, Laura Jane or Amelia Jane. For a boy Jacob Ross.

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 06/02/2015 17:57

Ryan Elliot, but I think it's better in reverse Elliot Ryan.
Girls. Laura Jane is very pretty. You don't get many Lauras these days.

baskingseals · 06/02/2015 18:00

Harriet Rose

Jacob Alexander

GingerLDN · 07/02/2015 06:20

From people I know irl and seeing on here I think Laura Jane is gonna be popular soon. I do love it though.

Penguinotterfoxbadger · 07/02/2015 08:49

Jacob Alexander is wonderful

EnglishExpatUSA · 07/02/2015 15:55

I'd have to disagree that Laura Jane will become popular... It's very dated and 80s. Also it's super plain.

GingerLDN · 07/02/2015 19:30

I know of two laura janes born in the last few months and it's been mentioned quite a few times on threads here. I never liked the name Laura before but I like Laura Jane. It's not super unique though if that's what you are after.

Alisvolatpropiis · 07/02/2015 23:19

Jacob Alexander

I like Amelia but not with Leigh. Together it almost sounds like immediately.

HearTheThunderRoar · 08/02/2015 05:35

Harriet Rose and Liam James.

Laura Jane and Ryan Elliot are okay but sound very 80s/90s.
