Currently pregnant with baby number 4. Trying to come up with a shortlist but we’ve drawn a blank 😫 can’t think of any.

Don’t know the sex so suggestions of both please.

Dc are called Leonard, Stanley and Amelia. Not particularly bothered about ‘matchy’ Names but more along those lines than Stormi, Jayden or Balonz.

(Ps if anyone recognises me from my children’s names, please ssshhh as I’m not telling anyone until after my anatomy scan due to previous loss)

For boys I reckon
Vincent
Edmond
Walter
Frank
Gilbert

For girls
Iris
Ida

think Eleanor is lovely but maybe too many Ellie/Ella's around?

Elsie also lovely as a shortening of Elspeth - but again watch out as there must now be lot so little Elsa's?

@TJsAunt Vincent is nice, I like the Vinny nn but is Lenny and Vinny too much?

Also like Iris but our surname ends in ‘is’ and will rhyme Sad

Not really bothered about the popularity aspect if it’s the ‘right’ name. My Amelias name has has been in the top 3 since she was about 6/7 and we genuinely don’t know any others.

I don't think you need to worry about Elizabeth being Liz. Short forms of Elizabeth go in cycles. Older teenagers i know are called things like Libby. Young children are called things like Betty or Elsie or Eliza. Liz is more a name associated with older people. I know a Lizzie, who's in her 30s. I love Elspeth.
How about Irene? Similar to Iris. Or Daphne?
Victor instead of Vincent?

Our gerbil is Irene! (After Irene Adler - the other one is mr Holmes.

Daphne is pretty, and Delphine.

Nancy is in both sides of the family in the older generation so it might be a contender.

Got a good list going so far, thanks!
