Hi all!

Only just found out I am expecting DC2. I've been looking through the names I had long listed for DC1 and picking my favourites.
Which of these do you prefer...

Boys
Emrys
Jonah
Prince
Roman

Girls
Etta
Hazel
Luca
Reina
Romy

Luca for a boy, or Jonah
Etta or Romy for a girl

MrsFoxPlus4 · 06/10/2018 03:07

Have to vote in favour of Roman & Romy! I have a daughter called Romani :)

Boys
Emrys - I've seen this a few times recently but no clue how to pronounce it
Jonah - love!
Prince - no, definitely no
Roman - this is fine but I don't love it

Girls
Etta - sweet
Hazel : sweet
Luca - boys name
Reina - seems a bit Kardashian to me
Romy - lovely!

Jonah or Roman
Etta or Hazel

NOT Prince!!

Luca is NOT a unisex name. It's an Italian boy's name.

Duvetdaysbliss · 06/10/2018 08:43

I really like Etta and romy.
Don’t like any of the boys names sorry.
Do like Luca for a boy though

Boys
Emrys - dislike this
Jonah - lovely
Prince - absolutely not ! Sorry that's a really horrible faddy name and he'd likely hate it
Roman - don't like, prefer Ronan

Girls
Etta - really nice
Hazel - nice
Luca - love this for a boy!
Reina - is this pronounced Ray-na? If so I like it !
Romy - no . So faddy and 2018

ButterflyOfFreedom · 07/10/2018 06:34

Jonah & Hazel

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 07/10/2018 10:16

Etta and Roman.

purple8pig · 07/10/2018 19:31

Jonah and Roman from your boys list

Etta, Hazel and Romy from your girls list

:)

Boys
Emrys - not heard of this before but it's really nice
Jonah - great name
Prince - perhaps not
Roman -not my cup of tea

Girls
Etta - really nice
Hazel - like this a lot.
Luca - I've only met one female Luka before and she spelt her name like that. If I saw it written 'Luca' I'd probably think it was a boy but that's not necessarily an issue.
Reina - not keen
Romy - also not hugely keen.

deptfordgirl · 08/10/2018 06:53

Jonah is gorgeous; use this!

Romy, Hazel and Etta are all nice.

ChaosMoon · 08/10/2018 11:27

I love Emrys - it's on my shortlist for boys too.

(@Eeevvvveee you'd pronounce the "rys" a you would the end out Idris)

Of your girls names, Hazel it's the best.

CakeRattleandRoll · 08/10/2018 14:03

Love Emrys and Hazel.

I would assume Luca was a boy if I saw it written down.
