Not keen on any of the boys' names.
Frances is by far my favourite from the girls' list. Rosalie is pretty, and there's something rather splendid about Gloria, too. None of the other names.

How about Ezri for a girl? You won't meet many!

That was the name of the baby who shared a post labour room with me and my DD. It's similar to my babys name and there was another baby named Izal

Lol I love gilmore girls! My sister begged my to name my daughter Lorelai haha! Rory is a girls name to me too. Well... Unisex at least.

Don't like any of your names, sorry.
And I know a five year old Rusty, that's what's on his bc so not a nickname. Has a brother with a similarly odd name too.

Glumglowworm · 04/10/2018 19:49

Gilmore girls Rory was short for Lorelai! Rory as a nickname for Lorelai or Aurora is ok but not on its own for a girl

I don’t like any of your boys names, especially Grey (boring colour) and Rusty (dogs name) but Ezra is the least bad

I prefer Francesca to Frances (Francis is a boys name)

HarrieT is nice, she can be known as Harrie but should have the full name officially

I don't like any of your boys' names but I like Rory for a boy! I like Frances and Rosalie for girls. Definitely Frances not Francis, which is traditionally the boys' spelling.

With regards to Rusty, have you considered if he had red hair what the repercussions would be for the poor bairn?
My dd had brown hair at birth, ginger now.

PinkAvocado · 05/10/2018 15:24

I like Ezra or Rory if a boy.

Your girl’s list is much harder for me...Harrie but only if Harriet. Your girl list is much harder as none are appealing to me. Half are pretty masculine sounding. Gloria is terrible. I think Harrie(t) if the t is included is ok.
