I like all your boys' names. Personally wouldn't be brave enough to use Harrison, but still like it.
From the girls' names I only like Lara.

StoatOfManyColours · 14/09/2018 15:17

Nathan - I love Nate, but not Nathan
Joshua - nothing wrong with it
Harrison - feels too surnamey for me. Hamish or Heath if you like H names?

Lara - not really to my taste, although nothing wrong with it
Amber - a bit stripper-ish
Serena - nice
Lois - LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!

Rebecca36 · 14/09/2018 15:19

All nice names (though I prefer Laura to Lara but that's me).
'Nathan' is not 'common', it's a great name.

Peachbubble · 14/09/2018 15:57

I like Harry, rather than Harrison.
From the girls list, I like Lara and Amber.

flumpybear · 14/09/2018 16:03

I love Nathaniel - shortened to Nathan
Girls names Amber is nicest imo but Lois is probably better as a late throw in Wink

Lucy1103 · 14/09/2018 16:05

I dislike Harrison, Amber and Serena
But really like Lara and Lois

TwistedStitch · 14/09/2018 16:05

Nathan and Serena are the best.

mintich · 14/09/2018 16:06

Nathan and Lara

DramaAlpaca · 14/09/2018 16:08

I like them all, especially Nathan.

QueenOfMyWorld · 14/09/2018 16:08

Harrison would be shortened to Harry by most people so you'd have to decide if you like that too.what about Lana instead of Lara?

LusaCole · 14/09/2018 16:13

Personally I know more Nathan / Nathaniels than either of your other two boys' names! Joshua is my favourite.

firsttimebabybirther · 14/09/2018 16:34

Pleasantly surprised to see some normal names to judge Grin

Think my favourites are Joshua and Amber

Rockyroadmallow · 14/09/2018 17:45

Nathan- 'naughty name' purely based on the fact 3/4 Nathans I've ever known have been incredibly badly behaved
Joshua- nice in that it's traditional but it's very overused. I hate 'Josh'
Harrison- surname to me. Really not keen

Lara- tad boring. I think there are many more interesting and exciting names than Lara. It's pretty though.
Amber- nice
Serena- nice

Petalflowers · 14/09/2018 17:48

Prefer Nathaniel to Nathan.

Joshua and Harrison are okay.

All girls name are nice.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 14/09/2018 18:45

Joshua and Amber are my favourites from your list.

Shadow1234 · 14/09/2018 22:32

Lara is beautiful
Preferred boys name on your list is Harrisson (nn Harry)
Its not very popular where my children go to school.

dontcallmelen · 14/09/2018 22:35

Nothing wrong with the boys names, but I’m not keen same with the girls names, but I do like Lois it’s a bit different.

AlliKaneErikson · 14/09/2018 23:58

You’ve got both of my kids on your list, one in the boys and one in the girls (they begin with H and L)! Good taste ;-)

AlliKaneErikson · 14/09/2018 23:59

PS they are the only ones with their names in their schools. Harrison is Harri for short.

UnrelentingFruitScoffer · 15/09/2018 00:00

All nice apart from Harrison.

SpoonBlender · 15/09/2018 00:02

Can't be doing with Nathan, it's too snakey. I've never even known any Nathans but I'm sure they're estate agents or used car salesmen. All the other names are fine!

sexnotgender · 15/09/2018 00:04

Hate Nathan.

Agustarella · 15/09/2018 00:04

Serena is beautiful.

moredoll · 15/09/2018 01:45

I like

Joshua
Harrison
Nathan

Amber
Lara

In that order

Picknickers · 16/09/2018 00:45

My nephew is Joshua so I love that. My favourite from your girl's list is Amber. I knew one who went by the nn Bam Bam!
