Hi everyone
I posted a couple of weeks ago as we were really struggling for a boys name for DC2.

We already have a little boy whos name is Torin Matthew, his new little brother or sister will be

Fern Allison
Niven Alexander

What do you think?

Lovely names

MrsGsnow18 · 06/07/2016 17:38

Love them both and think they go really well with Torin!

Pipilangstrumpf · 06/07/2016 19:05

Lovely!

NotYoda · 06/07/2016 20:32

Love the girl's name, don't like Niven at all. Sorry

cheapandcheerful · 06/07/2016 20:36

Not sure how to pronounce Niven but I LOVE Fern!

Sophronia · 06/07/2016 20:53

I really like Niven Alexander

DramaAlpaca · 06/07/2016 21:20

Nice names and they go very well with Torin.

SirChenjin · 06/07/2016 21:21

Love Fern, not keen on Niven at all, sorry.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 06/07/2016 21:23

Fern is cute, Don't like Niven.

Cocoabutton · 06/07/2016 21:25

Yes, I like Fern but not Niven. Fern Allison is lovely.

Creatureofthenight · 06/07/2016 21:29

Fern is OK but don't like Niven.

MagnumAddict · 06/07/2016 21:36

Don't like Niven, Alexander Niven would be much better IMO

Fern is lovely

NataliaOsipova · 06/07/2016 21:37

Niven as in David Niven?

Allalonenow · 06/07/2016 21:37

I like Fern, but I prefer the more traditional spelling of Alison.

I'm not keen on Niven, though I suppose it goes with Torin as a "sib set". Are they characters from GoT?

GinIsIn · 06/07/2016 21:43

Fern is lovely. I am so sorry but I think Niven is dreadful.

LokisUnderpants · 06/07/2016 21:45

I really don't like Niven either. Looks like misspelled Nivea. Alexander is much nicer.

jellycat1 · 06/07/2016 21:46

Nice. Makes me think Scottish!

Tiggeryoubastard · 06/07/2016 21:51

Niven? Err no.

1horatio · 06/07/2016 21:55

I prefer Alexander Niven. And I feel like it goes better with Torin.
Fern is nice

Raines100 · 06/07/2016 21:59

I like Niven. A Scottish Saint, according to google. Very nice, OP.

SirChenjin · 07/07/2016 08:24

Google also says it's the anglicised spelling of the Irish Naomhan Grin

albertcampionscat · 07/07/2016 08:27

Talliesin?
