Our baby is due in the next week and we still can’t narrow down the names.
We have a Very common surname, especially for our area, so want a name that’s a little more unusual without being totally out there.
Boys names we like:
Felix (but not sure about the cat food connection)
Jasper (this seems to be increasingly popular where we are, so not sure any more)
Emlyn (but sounds V. Welsh with our surname and we aren’t at all)
Alastair (one my sister wants to potentially use in future as Ali works in both English and Turkish and she needs a name to do that)
Orson (bit of a curveball, loved it initially and now I think we’ve lost our nerve)
Girls names we like:
Margot (but is it too similar to Maggot?)
Penelope (seeing this a lot on here so not sure if it could be the next big thing in names)
Genevieve (dyslexic DH really struggles to spell this)
Helena (exactly the same name, down to the surname, of the woman next door)
Audrey (next door’s dog, and with surname becomes name of long running soap character)
Your help would be very much appreciated.
