Okay so after consulting you guys we now have current favourites of:

Esther/Tess - if Esther would be known as Tess most of the time.
Harriet
Tabitha

Caleb
Edward

Ds1 has a biblical name outside of top 100 - fairly unusual but not made up!

I like Esther alot - not so keen on Tess though, I prefer Essie

I really like Harriet nn Hattie but it's become popular in our area. Saying that it's still on my list

I dislike Tabitha it reminds me of cats

I really like Caleb

Edward is nice enough but I'm not a fan of Eddie

Tabitha and Edward

(I have a Tabitha and everyone loves it and it is a Biblical name)

I like all the names but just be aware that being known by a name which isn't your first name on your BC can cause problems with banks etc.

Adore Caleb.

Out of the girls, I like Tabitha the most. Very similar to my favourite name Talitha.

munchkin Tabitha is probably my favourite from the girls' names. Have you just had positive reactions to it then?

Deptfordgirl - it's funny we were talking about it the other day. She is now 21 and when I called her Tabitha I think some people were a bit shocked - I asked her if she was happy with her name and she says she loves it and a lot of people comment on what a nice name she has.

Esther and Tabitha are both lovely.

I am not so sold on either Edward (bit dull) or Caleb (slightly fashionable and a bit hard sounding?) I'd choose Cassius instead.
