It's been done before but I've got a cold and can't sleep so thought it would be interesting!

For me it would be Alistair or Guinevere.

Bruno!

LostPlatypus · 28/01/2017 23:32

Zachary (Zach) or Holly/Lyra (can't decide on the girl's name)

HollyBrown · 28/01/2017 23:33

We would have a rough time choosing between Cora and Harriet.
A boy would be Walter or perhaps Bruce.

Patriciathestripper1 · 28/01/2017 23:33

Phillipa for the girl
Felix for the boy

MooMooTheFirst · 28/01/2017 23:37

I've got an 8mo DS whose name was sort of chosen for us in the end and it's fine, I like it, but I really wanted Thomas.

I'm so broody for a girl though... I like -

Annie
Audra
Willa
Elain
Faith
Felicity
Heledd
Regina
Tessa

I want so many babies

Flowerydems · 28/01/2017 23:48

Violet for a girl, Findlay (Finn) for a boy

Haudyerwheesht · 28/01/2017 23:51

Mirren or Darragh

TheCustomaryMethod · 28/01/2017 23:59

Aargh - I've used up most of my favourite names on animals over the years!

Of those remaining, I like Wulfrith for a girl and Ambrose for a boy.

I've had a hysterectomy, though, so it won't be happening Grin

Daffodillydolly · 29/01/2017 00:03

Violet or Daniel

LadyAlanPartridge · 29/01/2017 00:05

Holly
Sonny

Londonjam · 29/01/2017 00:07

Kitty or Ted

Buntysoven · 29/01/2017 00:11

Another one.. just my choice and just today...Fenna or Edwin

hoddtastic · 29/01/2017 00:15

one person has chosen 2 of my 3 kids' names! The other one is in here as a favourite.

I would have Margaret for a daughter and Patrick for a son.

jinglestheelf · 29/01/2017 00:18

My favourite boys names are Killian and Ezra.

No idea for a girl's name, DD2 was nameless for several days as we couldn't decide!

Katielou75 · 29/01/2017 02:23

Leia and Steffan.

JuneJuly · 29/01/2017 03:25

Just the other night I also couldn't sleep, bit like now(!), & I went through a baby name list in my head - knowing full well I won't be having anymore.

The names I would choose from are:-

Boys
Grover (all time fave)
Parker
Vaughn
Tristan
Murray
Cole

Girls
Piper (Pippy)
Kitty
Bridie
Emmy
.........these would all be to follow a theme used for my other 2 dds though, not necessarily names that have always been favourites. For that it would be...

...Ariadne

MitzyLeFrouf · 29/01/2017 04:06

I like Wulfrith for a girl and Ambrose for a boy.

Just as well they're only hypothetical!

No offence intended, but OMG a girl called Wulfrith?! Grin

lizzieoak · 29/01/2017 04:09

Hmmm,
Samuel or Sidney for a boy
Freya, Saskia, Tilda, or Lucy for a girl.
Might have a slightly different list tomorrow!

MarilynWhirlwindRocks · 29/01/2017 04:43

CantStopNoTime,

"Jesus. As it would be an Immaculate Conception" Grin Grin

JuneJuly,

Just out of curiosity, are you a jazz fan? Your boys' names include some of my favourite musicians Smile

OP,

My shortlist:

(Girls) Niamh, Elise or Raphaella

(Boys) Luca or Raphael

babyblabber · 29/01/2017 08:17
