Lovely choices OP

MrsKyloRen · 17/08/2018 19:52

You’ve got some lovely names on your lists OP! I like Martha Elizabeth best of your girls options and Arthur John from the boys list.

I like Alexandra I think that's lovely and unusual for a girl. Grace is pretty too but it is becoming so popular. For a boy I personally think Louis that's a lovely name x

Esther Olive and Benjamin John are my favourites. I like Arthur, Edward, MArtha, Grace and Alice too. Also like Talitha Elizabeth but am not so keen on Tabitha

Alexandra and Edward

Jollyholliday · 17/08/2018 20:22

Alexandra and Martha
Benjamin and Edward

My son was going to be Charlotte Elizabeth if he was a girl! My Granny was Beatrice Elizabeth so I considered this for my daughter when she was born, so either of those I prefer. I do love the name Martha, so maybe Martha Elizabeth? My one daughters middle names is Grace the other daughters middle name is Alice.

For boys either Benjamin john or Louis John

firsttime17 · 17/08/2018 20:27

Martha Elizabeth or Eloise Olive for a girl and for a boy Arthur John... gorgeous names x

Dollius01 · 17/08/2018 20:28

Alice Elizabeth or Grace Elizabeth.

Rupert or Gregory.

Not at all keen on Olive, even as a middle name.

AnyaMoondial · 17/08/2018 20:47

Esther is beautiful.
Benjamin is the best boy name (of all boy names, not just your list).

Flyingpigs247 · 17/08/2018 20:48

I actually really like Martha Alice or Martha Eloise.

For boys Arthur John.

Our middle names are family names rather than just names we like IYKWIM. I appreciate Olive is a bit different though! The other middle name for a girl we could use is Evelyn if anyone prefers that one?!
