Currently trying to decide baby names and would love some opinions, we obviously like them all but don't know which ones we like best at the moment;

Rupert
Walter
Albert

Edith
Ivy
Pippa
Dulcie

Thank you :)

It's funny how different tastes can be isn't it? These names are all absolutely as far from my style as it's possible to get, but if I HAD to choose, I'd go with Albert and Ivy, I guess.

Albert and Dulcie

I like Rupert and Pippa

Edith & Walter, though I do also love Rupert
I do like Albert but that's my rabbit's name

If I had to choose from these names I'd go for Albert and Ivy.

BonusNewt · 12/10/2016 12:11

I love Bertie, so if it was me I would choose Albert and call him Bertie! Out of all the full names I prefer Walter, although I always get the Kinks song Do You Remember Walter in my head when I hear it.

With the girls names I like in order: Edith, Ivy, Dulcie, Pippa.

Albert for a boy and Ivy or Edith for a girl, love all 3!

Saltedcaramel2016 · 12/10/2016 12:18

Albert and Ivy

Foxtato · 12/10/2016 12:37

Rupert
Ivy

Catinthecorner · 12/10/2016 12:52

Edith for a girl -love it. The other girl names are just ok to me.

I really want to like Walter, but it's a not nice nickname in military circles (which may not bother you).

One of my uncles has Walter as a middle name and his army friends still call him Walt! I didn't realise it was an insult. He always said everyone was called by their most embarrassing name.

CEOD · 12/10/2016 13:32

I like Rupert and Pippa

Tarttlet · 12/10/2016 13:37

Rupert and Ivy.

Paddypants

Walt (like Disney), so for example:
'Boris is a bit of a Walt, you'd think he's saved the empire solo from the way he talks'

People who take things like airsoft too seriously are also Walt's. Pretenders.

Thanks so much! Didn't think I'd get so much feedback :) I realise some of them aren't to everyone's taste but good to get some opinions. Will feedback to dh x

Dulcie, not keen on any of the boys names.

ScarletSienna · 12/10/2016 18:36

Rupert and Edith.

Albert is really common at the moment where I am so I'd avoid it because of that but quite like Bertie as a nn.

Also like Ivy and Dulcie.

Gazelda · 12/10/2016 18:39

Pippa means BlowJob in Greek, apparently. Not a problem if you don't know any Greeks though.

Sophronia · 13/10/2016 12:06

Albert and Edith

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 13/10/2016 12:33

OP, do you like Ida ?

DerelictMyBalls · 13/10/2016 19:18

Albert and Ivy, by a country mile.
