Freddie and Amelia - nice or boring?

[Mclaren37]

What do you think about this sibling combo? Lovely names or just boring/overdone??

Lovely! Really great names and lovely together. Is freddie short for anything or just Freddie?

We have a Freddie in the family and dd middle name is Amelia!! Great choices!!

Well, two of my DCs are Frederick (Fred) and Emilia, so it gets the tick of approval from me.

Fabulous!

Nice but pretty common names these days if that bothers you. Amelia especially and similar names have been used a lot in past 10+ years. Probably equivalent of Sharon and Mark of the 70s these days. I'd use a full name like Frederick and use Freddie as a nickname if you're going to go for it.

Well Amelia is a lovely name, and Very popular and over used for that reason. Freddie is adorable and cute, and popular for that reason, so.
I'd have to say both boring but lovely

Nice and boring. Sorry, that's not very helpful but was my gut reaction.

Beautiful classic names. Use Frederick and then shorten to Freddie though.

Cute names. Are they for twins or do you already have a Freddie or an Amelia?

Freddie is cute. I've never liked Amelia I'm afraid- not sure why.

Prefer Freddie and Emilia.

Those of us with Amelias and Freddies will of course say lovely. And there are lots of those!

But objectively both names are very widely used and a little dull. Will probably sound dated in a few years.

Nice and boring. Nothing wrong with that though really, if you like them. As said above, they'll probably date a la Derek, Sharon, Tracey etc.

Just be prepared for them to be Amelia S and Freddie S (or whatever your surname initial is) in school. I've taught a load of Amelias over the last few years!

I think they go very well together.

Nice and boring!

Nice classic names; I prefer Freddie short for something than as a name in its own right. Amelia has been the number 1 girl's name for a couple of years though, so if popularity bothers you, I'd avoid it.

Lovely names.

My children have classic names as well.

Yes, they're popular names but to you they'll be the only Amelia and Freddie.

They are popular for a reason and that's because they are such nice names!

Go for it.

Nice but more boring, sorry

Both very common at the moment.

Really really boring, sorry!

Wildly overused.

They'll be at school with 6 children with the same name.

Teachers must get so bored.

Nice but yes a bit boring as well. But I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing

Yes, they're popular names but to you they'll be the only Amelia and Freddie.

How? By renaming all the other Amelias and Freddies?
