All hypothetical at the moment as we are only starting TTC DC2, but I am determined to get a head start on names this time, as DH and I have such different taste. It ended up being quite stressful last time.

We did a deal in the end where I chose a boy name and he chose a girl name, (we both liked, but didn't love each other's choices). She turned out to be a DD, so we went with DH's choice.

DD has a classic name, which was more popular in the eighties and nineties than it is now. I love it now, but it is on the safe side and the only thing I slightly regret is that it hasn't got much potential for shortening, which is something I'd like for DC2 name.

Bethany
Saskia
Robyn
Scarlett
Imogen

Christopher
Vincent
Marcus
Edmund
Timothy

DH has already vetoed my favourite boy name which is Josiah with nn Joe. He thinks it's a bit out there / trendy.
