What are your thoughts on the following names please?

Avril
Olive
Norah
Maren

Rafferty
Barnaby
Ivor
Caleb
Judah
Isaac / Isaiah

I like Norah and all your boy names, poss not Judah so much but Jude is good. :)

Olive and Ivor all day long.
They're excellent.

Norah is lovely I think Norah Joan's 🎶

Olive or Norah and Rafferty for me.

I love Olive and Ivor!

All nice choices but those are definitely the best. I too prefer Jude to Judah (and Isaac to Isaiah).

I nearly had a Caleb it's lovely. I'm not keen on the others

I haven't heard of an Avril for ages, very pretty.
Norah reminds me of Norah Batty I;m afraid, old lady and wrinkly tights.

I know a little Avril, nick named Avi.
I like Olive.
For a boy, Rafferty (Raff), or Caleb.

I like Isaac.

Dislike the others, especially the girls' names.

Olive, Rafferty and Isaac are nice

Olive or Norah
Judah or Isaac
But if I was braver I would go with Rafferty - I think I love it but it's a bit unconventional for me!

I like Maren and don't mind Norah. Don't like any of the boys names.

Love all the girl names!

Boys - I like Rafferty (don't like Raff though), Isaiah and Jude (not Judah)

I like Olive and Caleb.

I don't like any of the others.

Maren is so unusual. Love it.

Maren is lovely. I know an adult Maren, gorgeous woman.
I'm not keen on any of the other girls names they all seem quite dated to me.

I also like Isaiah

Norah and Maren are OK. I absolutely loathe Olive, I think it's such an ugly name, one of those names that went out of fashion for a reason.

Not sure about the boys.

Tbh, I don't especially like any of them!

Avril - ok but prefer April
Olive - not keen
Norah - ok
Maren - nice, unusual, my favourite

Rafferty - love it
Barnaby - my favourite
Ivor - the engine
Caleb - ok
Judah - not keen
Isaac - nice, but know a lot of the,

I love all of your boys, particularly Caleb, Isaac and Judah.

I like the sound of Maren, although haven't actually heard of it before!

Avril - don't like this
Olive - is okay
Norah - this is lovely
Maren - never heard of this

Rafferty - a bit 'trying to be cool'
Barnaby - cute
Ivor - my dad's name and the best!
Caleb - okay
Judah - Prefer Jude or Jonah
Isaac / Isaiah - Isaac is one of my favourite names, Isaiah also a good choice, though Americans will pronounce it wrong.

I have defiantly added Maren to my DD3 insanity wish list!

Norah and Barnaby

Avril - Lavigne

Olive - Love this

Norah - Love this, but prefer the spelling Nora; the h is unnecessary

Maren - Dislike. Sounds like marinara sauce or a surname

Rafferty - Strongly dislike. Classic "I want a unique name, but really it's not unique because everyone who thinks they're being unique chooses it" hipster name.

Barnaby - Strongly dislike. A can't imagine many boys/men appreciating being called Barnaby.

Ivor - Nope.

Caleb - Lovely.

Judah - Too religious.

Isaac / Isaiah - Isaac is fine; not a fan of Isaiah.

I like Olive, Caleb, Isaac and Isaiah

I like Norah, Olive and Rafferty best!

I don't love it, but I know a very cute Barnaby but my two year old ds can't pronounce it properly and calls him Barbie!
