Thank you

I love Sebastian, Connie and zara

my favourites are

Vivienne - really classy and cue, unusual but a good gwon up name. i think its beautiful

albert - on my list too!

Love them all bar Joshua (loads of them round these parts) and Digby (the biggest dog in the world).

Camille and Felix

Connie is lovely but I'd go for Constance nn Connie.

Don't like any of your boys' names.

Zara - lovely, pretty, classy name
Philippa (Pippa) - quite nice, prefer the nn
Briony - dislike
Camille - quite nice, I know a French one so think it sounds better en francais
Connie - really dislike, always think it sounds too similar to corny
Tess / Tessa - quite nice, inoffensive
Vivienne - ok but will probably get shortened to Viv, which I hate. Another French one
Harriet - quite nice, inoffensive

Sebastian - like nn Seb, full name is ok
Arthur - it's ok
Felix - awful, a cat
Albert - it's ok
Digby - awful, a dog
Xander (Alexander) - Alexander is great but Xander really grates on me for some reason. A bit try hard? Much prefer Alex nn
Joshua - lovely

HTH

Really like Tess, Sebastian (Seb) and Joshua. I love the name Alexander, it's 99% going to be our boy name, but really don't like Xander. Digby is a dog's name (sorry!). Vivienne is a nice name but if it was shortened to Viv then not so much. Harriet is quite nice too, I like the nn Hattie. How would you pronounce Camille?

My favourites are Pippa, Tess, Sebastian and Joshua. Least favourites are Camille and Digby.

Adore digby sebastian and Tess

Could have Lex for Alexander

like all except Connie and Digby.

Love Camille, it's a beautiful game.

Xander is the one I'd choose from your boys list if I had to. I love the name Digby but only because it was my dogs name. He was the biggest dog in the world.

Game?? Name!

I like all the girls' names. Agree that Digby is a dog's name though and think Albert's awful tbh.

But as I always try to make a point of saying. This is only my opinion.

Girls; I like them all except Connie (prissy) and Harriet (stuffy) Vivienne is beautiful.

Boys; I dislike all of them.

Zara - No, one of the Queen's Grandaughters & a clothing company
Philippa (Pippa) - No, pre Will & Kate's wedding yes, but not now.
Briony - No (just don't like it. Sorry all Briony mums)
Camille - No. Have you seen Death in Paradise? If not, why not? It's brilliant. But the name would remind me of the girl in that, every time!
Connie - No. Girl who won the talent thing to play Maria.
Tess / Tessa. No. Just too 'down at heal'
Vivienne No. Relatives with the name. All hate it.
Harriet. .... Best of the bunch :)

Sebastian No.
Arthur Yes if you call him Artie. No if you'll call him Arthur.
Felix No. It's a baby, not a cat.
Albert Yes if you call him Albie. No if you'll call him Albert
Digby. No. Loved Kristian Digby, sad when he died :(
Xander (Alexander) No. Just No.
Joshua No. Dated and over used.

Best you have a girl and call her Harriet ????

I like...

Zara
Camille
Connie - prefer as a nn for Constance
Tess / Tessa
Vivienne - prefer Vivien
Harriet

Arthur
Albert
Alexander

Love these. Watching these for my own baby. Dh has vetoed Vivienne which I love.

Zara- nice enough
Philippa (Pippa)- I prefer Pippa to Philippa
Briony - I like it, prefer it spelled Bryony
Camille - love it, but think it would never be pronounced quite right in UK
Connie - lovely but a bit nicknamey and I don't really like Constance
Tess / Tessa - OK but too nicknamey for my tastes
Vivienne - everyone seems to love this but I can't warm to it. Can't picture a little baby Vivienne only a middle aged woman
Harriet -meh, taught a vile one this year which probably is colouring my view of it!

My favourites are Bryony and Camille

Sebastian- nice, a bit posh
Arthur- like it. Art or Artie are cool nicknames
Felix- I really like Felix, but everyone always talks about the cat! Have you thought about Felicity for a girl?
Albert- it's ok
Digby - no. Hideous.
Xander (Alexander)- love Alexander but have irrational hatred for Xander. Much prefer Alex as nn.
Joshua- nice, quite popular though

My favourites are Arthur, Alexander and Joshua

Zara - nice, I would love it, but v similar to my own name
Philippa (Pippa) - Like Pippa, not fussed on philippa
Briony - Quite nice, haven't heard it in a while
Camille - Nice but when I say it, I feel like I need to say -ia after it as in Camillia
Connie - Like it, on my list, even though DH says no.
Tess / Tessa - Like it, on my list, even though DH says no.
Vivienne - I do like it, even if it does remind me of pretty woman, like the nn Vivi - a similar on my list is Violet.
Harriet - not fussed.

Sebastian - It's ok, like Seb for short.
Arthur - DH loves this, I am not so sure but apparently becoming popular.
Felix - Is a cat for me.
Albert - Can't quite like this, and don't like nn Albie - doesn't sound right
Digby - Is a dog for me.
Xander (Alexander) - I like Xander, Dh won't have it. Don't like Alexander.
Joshua - very popular in the 1990's & 2000's so I know too many of them personally

Love Vivienne, was on our list.
Really like Harriet, Tessa and Zara.
Others are OK.

Love Felix, would have been on our list for a boy.
Like Arthur and Albert.
Like Joshua but too popular.
Less keen on Alexander, Sebastian and Digby.
