Not due until next year but still excitedly thinking about names Smile

So far this is our shortlist, would love opinions please!

GIRLS: Tabitha, Erin, Aria

BOYS: Ethan, Joseph (Joe), Max

P.S. It goes without saying that many people see Tabitha as a cat name but we love it Wink

I meant in terms of general usage, but yes I can see it being most popular of those three. I think they're all nice OP - but I'd hope a girl names Aria would grow up to love opera, because she'll definitely be asked often if she does!

Ooh, I rarely post on shortlists as I'm not a fan of the main MN style names but like yours a lot!

Definitely Erin, DS could have been an Erin. I do like Aria (or Arya thanks to GoT) but would depend on surname I think.

Love Max, again could have been DS apart from our surname ruining it and have a DN called Joseph/Joe so love that too!

Well maybe it's regional but baby Erins seem to be all the rage in Scotland! I know one in London too.

Erin and Max.

Erin and Max get my vote

Erin - sweet name
Tabitha - lovely - my fave (but DH thinks cat!)
Aria - pretty but depends on surname how it flows

Ethan - nice strong name
Max - meh -there'l be about 6 other max's in his class at school
Joseph - definitely my fave

Love Tabitha and Joe.

You need look no further!.

Enkopkaffetak · 24/11/2015 14:20

Never liked Erin I just cant find anything nice about it.
Tabitha is cute and every Tabitha I have known are sweet girls
Aria is pretty imo

I like all your boys name wouldn't use any myself but none of them would make me think yuck. Likely prefer Ethan at a push

Moriarty I'm a singer so I hope if it's a DD she will love opera! Or come to love it at least, it's definitely an acquired taste.

DH is now saying he's wobbling on Joe, which is such a shame as it seems to be the overriding favourite on here!

Thanks for all the replies btw! I think we are definitely set on Tabitha now.
