Thanks @RickOShay, it’s good to hear we’re on the right track! Margot is one I’m worried about, especially as it’s one of my personal favourites... Margot and Theo is probably a few too many O sounds where as I’ve been thinking of it as Margot & Theodore or Theo and Maggie. I have just noticed all the DC’s have the O sound (as pointed out by PP lol) though so maybe we can get away with it. It took us a while to notice the matching inner syllable in A & T’s names too but didn’t care as he is Theo 99% of the time anyway lol.

Theodore is a great name Wink
Yes i like the o motif
Ophelia is beautiful, and obviously has the o sound.
I honestly don’t think you can go
far wrong.

Which are your personal favourites?

pixieloux · 15/09/2018 13:48

@RickOShay It’s my all time favourite boy’s name!

I love them all but there are certain names that I don’t want to take off the list despite knowing they have their issues (for us) They are Frances, Margot, Primrose, Winter, Eloise, Esmée, Imogen, Florence, Cecilia, Felicity, Evangeline, Arthur, Elwood, Miles, Dominic, Alexander and Otis. Not necessarily my favourites but ones I’m struggling to lose lol.

Phoebe Iona and Elijah Rowan are my favourites on your list.

pixieloux · 15/09/2018 15:58

I think we’re realistically looking at this as a list...

B: Elias, Elijah & Zachary

Maybes:
Alexander, Arthur, Dominic & Sebastian - The two A names are big maybes.

G: Beatrix, Cecily, Elodie, Emmeline, Penelope & Phoebe

Maybes:
Edith, Esmée, Felicity, Florence, Frances Imogen, Margot & Primrose

I think I’m going go to have let go of Elwood too as it’s just too out there. I’m going to flutter my lashes at DH and hopefully we can get a hamster or something so I can still use it lol.

When are you due, OP?

If it's before the end of 2018 I would definitely pick Emmeline for a girl, because 2018 is the centenary of the Representation of the People Act. Wink

Hohofortherobbers · 15/09/2018 20:20

I like Margot and Miles

pixieloux · 15/09/2018 22:00

@EthelThePiratesDaughter That would be a lovely connection! I’m due March 2019 however lol. We’re hoping to find out genders in 2 weeks which will help too... Fingers crossed they play ball! If not, I guess it’s best to wait for the 20 week scan.
