LOVE Blair, Luna and Tokyo!!
First time I've ever seen anyone else like the name Tokyo!!!

I also like Winter, but it just doesn't sit right as a name with me for some reason - it'd grow on me!

Tokyo?
Kyoto?
Is there any reason you want to call them this?

Otherwise: Sam, Alex, Erin, Luna, Patrick, Daniel, Josh, Alec are all nice.

"First time I've ever seen anyone like the name Tokyo."

Well Tokyo Myers mum obviously likes itGrin

For girls I like
Luna. Aurora.Leah. Erin. Willow.

For boys.
Patrick and Andrew are fab.

Sam and Alex are okay as unisex names.
I don't think a boy will thank you for calling him Marilyn.

My favourites are Alex, Corinne and Daniel.

Alec, Kurt and love Daniel !

Sephyjune · 15/01/2019 13:30

Please don't call a boy Marilyn!!!!!!!!

Commenting on your list.
Unisex:
Alex - great but very popular
Sam - great
Marilyn - it's not unisex
Blair - ok but makes me think of Tony or Lionel. I know a woman called Blair
Kyoto - it's a place name

Girls:
Aurora - too many Rs.
Luna - fine for a cat
Chara (pronounced Cara) - Why use a yooneek spelling? Just use Cara.
Corinne - fine
Erin - ok
Paige - fine but could be considered a bit downmarket
Leah - classic but I find it a bit meh
Winter - no
Willow - another cat name

Boy:
Kurt - not keen but nothing wrong with it
Ross - ok
Patrick - good
Daniel (probably not considering it's my dad's name) - fine
Josh - fine but peaked about 20 yrs ago. lots of them around
Alec - even better than Alex
Andrew - fine but will be Andy
Tokyo - it's a place. How about Ouagadougou instead?

I think with Chara people will automatically say Ch-ara. If you are going to use it I'd spell it properly or ever Kara is okay

rosecharlie · 15/01/2019 15:41

Honestly, a lot of these aren't really my favourites and a lot of them I'd only use as middle names. This is just my boyfriend's list edited by me. Thanks for the opinions!
