We have a George... I've seen plenty of negative opinions on here about it, but just so it doesn't influence thoughts, we didn't choose it because it was popular, I decided on it when I was 12 and it stuck. I still love it all these years later... and I actually don't know any others, he's also the only one in his entire nursery.

So anyway, we have a George. We are expecting number 2... we could pick a boys name if it came to it, girls we are stuck!

I've posted before that I love Florence, DH says no, he loves Olivia.. but contrary to the George thing, Olivia is a lovely name but we do know loooaaads in the varieties of Olivia, Alivia, Livi, Olive.

Same with that he loves Amelia, again, I think it's a lovely name, but we have a niece called Mia and a cousin called Millie. And it's sooooo popular. Too close isn't it?

The names Anya and Rosie keep coming back to me. DH loves Rosie, I don't know if it's a bit much as will be alliteration with surname. Surname starts with an R and includes two S's.

What are people's thoughts on Anya and Rosie?

Does Anya go with George? I know George is predominantly Greek, but is well known in England. I believe Anya is Russian?

Anya Rose?

What about Rosie? What middle name would go nicely?

I like George and Rosie but now you’ve said it, it does make me think of Rosie and Jim (not in a bad way at all).

What about:
Isla
Alice
Ottilie
Aoife (I know it’s Irish but a nice name)
Annabelle
Sophie
Eleanor (nn Ellie)
Kiera

I like George and Rosie together.

I'm not keen on Rosie as a standalone name. I much prefer Rose, or something like Rosalind or Rosamund. I don't think it "goes" with George either. Then you'd have two names that were equally grown up. Anya is nice but that's a diminutive as well, of course. I don't think that "goes" with George either.
