All lovely except Henry and Rosalba. Rosalba would be sure to get Rose as a nn and there are already enough Roses, and Henry is just a bit boring.

My favourites are Cressida (absolutely fabulous) and Gregory (wonderful strong name).

Francis and Clemence, nn Clem. I would have said Gregory but I know one and he's a dick.

I've not heard of Clemence as a name, only Clemency, Clementine and Clement (for a boy). downside is Clem/Clemmie as diminutives which to me are just not very nice.

I like Cressida and Gregory best. If you like Francis for a boy do you also like Frances for a girl?

Henry is my favourite but really like Gregory and Francis too
I don't like any of your girl options but someone up thread suggested Frances for a girl and I think that's a lovely suggestion.
