I love your girls list, very similar taste to me! I'm also pregnant with #3 and have two girls ! One of them is a Phoebe :) absolutely love her name so that's my favorite on your list . Zoe is one of my favs this time round

Boys names I struggle with but I like a few on your list ! James and Rory I like. I love Mac but I feel like it should be short for something ? I also quite like Finn (rather than flynn)

Two boys names im liking right now are Fletcher and Evan !

starandson · 27/11/2018 10:44

I love Zoe and Freddie! Those are actually my choices for if/when I fall pregnant!
I also like Summer and Flynn.

I know a 20 year old called Mac and it really suits him, but I don't like Macenzie it seems a bit chavvy. I love Evan too, I mentioned it before and the hubby was disgusted 🙈 Flynn is from Flynn Ryder in Tangled 🤣.

Don't love many of your girls name but don't mind them - my favourite would be Florence.

I like James and Rory from your boys list.
I think every second baby is called Freddie at the moment.
Not keen on the others, they sound really American to me which isn't my thing!

starandson · 27/11/2018 11:00

That’s interesting @ernjas I know loads of James and Rorys under 10 but not a single Freddie!

Fulltimemummy85 · 27/11/2018 11:04

I have never met a Freddie, just loads of Jacks here. I know 2 baby Rorys which does put me off. I think it depends on the area.

Phoebe and Flynn are my favourites

ernjas · 27/11/2018 11:56

@starandson really? I know 4 Freddies under 2! Shock and don't know any James' under age 12! I guess it's just depending on where you are! 😊

OneTwistedAngel · 27/11/2018 12:02

Love Rory, Flynn and Freddie(Fredrick) for boys. I like Lottie if it's a nickname for Charlotte but not as a stand alone name. Zoe and Florence are nice.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 27/11/2018 12:05

Florence and James.

Fulltimemummy85 · 27/11/2018 12:20

I know a Charlotte, she isn't very nice so I don't think I could use the name 🙈

Your girls list is similar to mine, I ended up with a Summer

For a boy i had Leo, Theo (maybe too popular now) or Benjamin

Fulltimemummy85 · 27/11/2018 12:49

I had Leo and theo before on my list i love them. I like Benjamin too and it may be a name we compramise on (picky hubby)

Clara is on my list after seeing the Nutcracker, it's a lovely name. My middle daughter was also going to be called Autumn but she was born in Winter. Love most of the names on your list xx

starkid · 27/11/2018 13:56

I like Summer, Zoe, Rory, Flynn and James.

Probably best not to use Phoebe if you already can't spell it!

starkid · 27/11/2018 13:57

Oh and Clara is gorgeous if you're adding that too :)

stellarfox · 27/11/2018 14:04

Lottie would be cute but short for Charlotte. I also really like Phoebe (please don’t spell this Pheobe) and Florence

I like all of your boy names! I think Mac is cute short for Malcolm.

You might also like Constance nn Connie, Freya and Imogen.

My she's cousin has a 3 year old Libby...no longer name. Raised a few eyebrows at first but it suits her. Nice list OP.

Picknickers · 28/11/2018 00:04

Bloody autocorrect. DH's not she's 😡

Beeziekn33ze · 28/11/2018 01:29

Freddie, short for Frederick, is cute, he'll probably become Fred later!
Rory
James
Xander?

Liberty, use Libby as her nickname?
Florence

Polkasq · 28/11/2018 01:37

I like Summer, Phoebe, Florence, James, Freddie and Austin.

I love Zoe, and Phoebe is quite nice too.
Lottie and Libby are cute, but as others say, should be short for Charlotte or Elizabeth.
Summer is OK, quite 90s though.
Dislike Florence and find it quite stodgy, like all names ending in 'ence/ance', eg Constance, Hortense, Prudence. Prefer Flora.

Fulltimemummy85 · 28/11/2018 09:53

I randomly have a family member called Flora, she really suits it. It mads me think of butter at first but I like it now.
