What style of names do you like?

NameChange30 · 04/12/2016 09:49

YY, do you like traditional names, long or short, are there any names you like but can't use or any names you hate?

rholmes140 · 04/12/2016 10:12

I'm open to all suggestions to be honest. I like Isacc and George but my husband isn't keen

Has he suggested any names?
Since he's rejected your suggestions, perhaps he could come up with some of his own.
DH and I both wrote a list, separately, and then compared the two.

Kublai?! Shock
Do either of you have Mongolian heritage?

rholmes140 · 04/12/2016 15:32

Haha I know it's terrible isn't it?!! No it's in a book her was reading. Girls aren't a problem but nothing is coming to us boy wise. It's so difficult :(

A bit more eclectic but;-

Ivan
Marco
Vlad
Alexander
Julius
Timur
Augustus or Augustine
Casimir

If he likes Kublai how about Kuba it's Polish. Or alternatively:
Kane
Cohen
Benjamin
Samuel
Rueben
Jonathan
Vincent
Theo

rholmes140 · 04/12/2016 16:18

Aww thank you all for your suggestions. I've been adding them to a big list!

NameChange30 · 04/12/2016 16:29

What about Blake?
It has some similar sounds to Kublai but it's... more acceptable IMO Grin

rholmes140 · 04/12/2016 16:47

Lol!!! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who hates flippin Kublai!!

Don't you have a 'Baby names' book? Surely that's easier than writing down hundreds of names from here, then we can sort out your short list for you!

Looks like we might need to help shortening your girls list too 😂

rholmes140 · 04/12/2016 20:25

Haha. Yes I ordered one last week just waiting for it to arrive :)

OP posts:
AnnieAnoniMouse · 05/12/2016 01:11

You ordered it, so you get first turn with a big black marker pen crossing out anything you don't like. That's a good 90% taken care of 😬

Baseballcupcakes · 06/12/2016 09:15

What are some of your girls names to give us a sense of your style?

rholmes140 · 06/12/2016 13:40

I like Lois, Penelope, Elliot, Alexandra, Primrose. I just find boys names really boring or a bit too posh sounding :(

My bump is a girl.

Had she been a boy we were going for Eric.
