Are these nice names?

For a girl I love Morven. For a boy I love Cillian or Fergus.

I'm only 8 weeks pregnant so very aware I'm getting way ahead of myself.

Are these nice names?

Not keen on Morven though I do like Mor- names, there must be lots of variations? Cillian is ok but I do like Fergus

DramaAlpaca · 06/01/2019 16:06

Well, I like them & think they are nice names Smile

Though I really wouldn't worry about what anyone else thinks, go with a name you love.

Congratulations on your pregnancy Flowers

I like Morven and Fergus.

Myoldfriend · 06/01/2019 16:06

Not my taste at all sorry.

I'm not sure about Morven. Only if scottish, I think.
Fergus is ok. do you
Cillian makes me think of Cillit Bang even though it's pronounced Killian.
Would it be abbreviated to Kill?

We are Scottish and living on the west coast.

Then Morven or Fergus would be fine. A lot of the Scottish names are great though.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/01/2019 17:26

I love Morven, and Ishbel too.
Not keen on Cillian, but Fergus is really great !

ForAMinuteThere · 06/01/2019 17:36

Yes, all are lovely.

NaToth · 06/01/2019 17:39

Another vote for all three. Love Morven particularly.

Mwnci123 · 06/01/2019 17:42

I like them all.

CrockOfTheNorth · 06/01/2019 17:45

I love Lachlan. That's a proper West coast name.

Nursiemum27 · 06/01/2019 18:41

Not overly keen on Fergus but love the other two

Oh Lachlan is lovely! There just doesn't seem to be a boys name that I love in the same way as I love Morven. I didn't find out what I was having last time but tempted this time.

I love Morven and Cillian

daisypond · 06/01/2019 19:36

I like them all, but particularly Morven and Fergus.

GemmeFatale · 06/01/2019 19:38

Love Cillian. Like the other two.

YahBasic · 06/01/2019 19:39

Love Morven and Cillian.

Also adore Cormac.

LearningMySelfWorth · 06/01/2019 19:50

I know both a Morven and Fergus. Both are 19/20 and at uni. Both lovely people. I really like the name Cillian but I'd spell it Killian, but that's just personal preference.

17caterpillars1mouse · 06/01/2019 20:39

Love Morven!

Really like Fergus. Cillian not so much

Peachbubble · 06/01/2019 20:51

I like Morven, and prefer Cillian to Fergus

SumAndSubstance · 06/01/2019 21:57

I like all of them! Cillian is the one that least says 'Scottish' to me (my first thought would be Irish) if that's any consideration, but it's a lovely name.

Astronica · 07/01/2019 04:31

All great names! Of the boy names Fergus is a favourite of mine.

WhirlieGigg · 07/01/2019 04:58

Not my taste. I’d assume Cormac and Cillian were Irish.

thatmustbenigelwiththebrie · 07/01/2019 05:05

Fergus is awful I'm afraid. The others are ok.
