Need a name!

Had a crappy day and need perking up a bit so here I am, asking for baby name ideas!

Little one on the way, not finding out the sex.

Girl names I like:

  • Billie
  • Nadia
  • Aaliyah

Boys names I like:

  • Solomon
  • Simeon
  • Cassius (shortened to Cass)

DP won't agree to any of these (not looking for criticism however terrible you think they may be!)  just looking for ideas. I like unique & strong names.

Any ideas?

I like all of the ones on your lists apart from Billie.
Some in a similar vein:
Claudia
Nina
Calista
Thalia

Asher
Elias
Ezra
Nico
Asa

What sort of names does you DP like?

Sharlottie2 · 01/06/2018 22:46

@LionsTeeth

Thor and Ruth Hmm

Oh wow that's quite an eclectic mix! Ruth and quite a lot of the boys names on your list are biblical, so maybe have a look at some Old Testament names and see if there are any you agree on.

Billie, Nadia, Solomon (nn Sol) and Cassius (nn Cass) are lovely. I don't think you can go wrong with any of these, all gorgeous names. I love Billie in particular, though it is actually my mother's name so a little biased.
