Names we like, but cannot use:
Boy -

Lewis
Louis/Louie
Billy (William)
Girl -

Scarlett/Scarlet
Violet

Name cannot begin with M, P, S, V, L, J, E or F!

We have a son named Elliot Finn.

Thank you! Smile

Thank you!

I'm just funny about it... I have diagnosed OCD, so I assume it's related to that (similar to some of my other issues!)

J is my surname initial.

Oh sorry! Completely read that wrong. In that case also on my boys list was
Reuben
Dexter
Henry
Benjamin (we liked but couldn't use)
Theo

Never had to name a girl but I like Amber
Iona
Claudia
Cordelia
How about Willow - sounds a bit like William in a female form

I can understand first initials not being shared as I know it bothers some people, but does it really matter if you repeat a middle initial? Do if your middle name is Jane for example, can't you have a James? That might make things easier and open up the field so to speak if you relax the rule a bit?

Have you looked at nymbler? You can put in names you like and it gives you similar names in alphabetical order so easy to skip the letters you don't want?

I like Noah but I just can't imagine an teenage/adult man called noah.

VLJ1988 · 04/11/2016 18:52

That's why it's a list of names we can't use Grin unfortunately Sad

Will just say you probably don't want to have Billy and Elliot.
I have a Billy and we had dicounted Elliot from our list for DS2 for the obvious reason.
I really like Teddy and Scarlet from your list

Yes, that totally makes sense, it's a good reason! I was just curious as it was a long list of letters and then I twigged why.

Elliot and Noah is a nice combination for brothers Smile

Oh, just looked at your user name. I guess your initials, DPs initials and DSs initials.

We can't use them :(
