Freya is gorgeous but common, if that's a problem. Georgia is lovely, but I wouldn't want it to turn into georgie for nn.
All your boy names would be on my list! Think Finn is getting quite common too :(

Sophronia · 03/03/2015 22:40

Ada, it's lovely and I think it goes very well with Max. Georgia is ok, but I'm not keen on any of the other girls names. From the boys list I'd choose Hugo.

VixxFace · 03/03/2015 22:40

Sienna and Sebastian!

manicinsomniac · 03/03/2015 23:14

Ayla and Finn

fizzycolagurlie · 04/03/2015 03:12

Freya and Hugo

Ezra is a boys name.

FatSwan · 04/03/2015 03:25

Ada or Ayla

Finn

fortifiedwithtea · 04/03/2015 03:40

Freya springs out because my DD2 has a friend with that name and she is a lovely girl.

Innocuoususername · 04/03/2015 03:55

Ada. Esra is a Turkish girl's name and is lovely, but you would have the "Ezra is a boys name" problem (as already evidenced by this thread!) and would be constantly correcting people. Not keen on the rest of your girls names.

For boys, Hugo or Sebastian. Finn is very popular and sounds like a nickname to me.

HearTheThunderRoar · 04/03/2015 05:33

Freya and Finn.

BlueStarsAtNight · 04/03/2015 07:58

I only like Ada, Freya and Georgia from the girls list, and like both Hugo and Sebastian from the boys

CaptainAnkles · 04/03/2015 07:59

Freya, Sienna and Finn are my favourites.

ThatBloodyWoman · 04/03/2015 08:05

Ada,Sorrelle and Hugo.

ScaryChicken · 04/03/2015 08:16

Like all your girls list except Sorrelle (prefer Sorrel) and Sienna (makes me think of the actress who is a bit annoying imo!). My favourites are Ada and Freya.

For a boy I really like Sebastian.

Finn is very popular (esp if you include all the Finlays/Finleys etc) and I find Hugo a but poncy (but I am a bit of a pleb)

loislines · 04/03/2015 09:59

Ada and Hugo.

squoosh · 04/03/2015 11:28

Sorrel and Finn.

Sorrelle looks made up and doesn't sound as nice as Sorrel.

florascotia · 04/03/2015 11:52

I think Sorelle was a cheap brand of bubble-bath sold by shops such as Woolworth.

Agree wih Squoosh that Sorrel is nice, however.

Rosieliveson · 04/03/2015 11:59

Lovely names, I like most of them. My favourites are Ada and Sebastian Grin

LollyLondon · 04/03/2015 12:45

Ada (like Freya too, but Ada is more unusual)
Finn

Leeds2 · 04/03/2015 18:23

Sienna, and Finn.

Bowlersarm · 04/03/2015 18:25

Freya or Sienna and Sebastian

Allalonenow · 04/03/2015 18:40

I like Hugo, and think it goes well with Max.
Finn is extremely popular ATM.

Freya is lovely and is the only name I like from your list.
I think as mentioned Esra and Sorrelle would always be queried, and Ada is too much of the Gerty/Hilda type of name for me.
What about Maude instead of Ada?

Whitetara · 04/03/2015 22:09

Lola and Georgia
Hugo and Sebastian are my favourites from your list.

DilysDerwent · 04/03/2015 22:21

Freya and Sebastian

brightnearly · 04/03/2015 22:47

Ada and Sebastian.

Why call someone Sorrel - after a vegetable??

Jackieharris · 05/03/2015 06:07

Ada nice but there are a lot of Ava's about
Sorrelle prefer sorel, looks made up
Lola I like this bit it's the association with Lolita which puts me off
Freya lovely
Sienna too 'sleb
Esra arse backwards
Georgia too posh, I'd imagine a bitchy girl
Ayla lots of Islas about just now, would probably get confused/misspelled

Hugo pretentious
Finn fine, prefer Finlay
Sebastian good
