Alayna is really nice - also like Anya or Elayna
Caleb would be my pick on the boys list.

I like Frances, Keziah and Fern but not keen on the rest of the girls names.

I like Reuben out of your boys names.

Alayna- don’t like
-Margot- my 2 year old dd. When I picked her name it always made me think of someone an elegant, well travelled lady with a dry sense of humour.
-Eva- doesn’t conjure anything up. Nice enough
-Esther- an old lady
-Lucinda- first thought was why not Lucia
-Frances- Enid Blyton books
-Marian- don’t like it
-Nicole- someone very pretty, all the Nicoles I’ve met have been gorgeous
-Colette- chicken breast. Don’t really know why, but this came to mind- maybe because of Italian cotoletta
-Karla- dated
-Evangeline- so beautiful. Margot’s middle name and I think it’s very pretty
-Beatrix- nice
-Keziah- not a fan
-Fern- not a fan
-Elinor- first thought was why not spell it Eleanor? So much nicer

and...

Asher- just don’t like it
Ethan- fine
Caleb- fine, bit American but probably someone quite cool who plays the guitar but doesn’t brag about it
Albert- I like the nn Albie
Reuben- wet

Alayna - Parents who can't spell, should be spelt Elena, or maybe Elaina/Alaina. Definitely not with a 'y' though.
Margot - lovely
Eva - lovely but there are far too many Eva's, Ava's and Evie's at the moment; she'll be one of hundreds
Esther - lovely (if you pronounce it Esta)
Lucinda - nice, but I hate the nn Cindy, it's very dated
Frances - hate hate hate
Marian - ok
Nicole - very dated. Don't like it
Colette - lovely
Karla - don't like it, very dated
Evangeline - over the top, prissy and the world doesn't need another Evie
Beatrix - I just hear 'Beer-tricks', sounds like a drinking game
Keziah - love it, prefer it spelt Kezia though
Fern - not a massive fan
Elinor - lovely though prefer the Eleanor spelling

Rebellia · 04/10/2018 22:58

Of the boys' names, I hate Asher but the others are nice.
