I have a rowan so has to be my number 1 choice! My second would be Arthur.

I like David, overused but now underused for 40 yrs. I like Clara from your girls list, although Agnes appeals. I would have to use something softer like Anya, I wouldn’t be brave enough to inflict Agnes, I think it might be too much!

Girls:
Julia - beautiful, classic and underused. Love it.
Clara - pretty
Josephine - ok, quite nice
Delia - don’t like, sounds middle aged. Delilah is better.
Agnes - hate the way it sounds, very harsh

Boys:
Arthur - very nice and classic
Rowan - lovely, really like it

David - very classic
Gabriel - sounds on the feminine side but not a negative
Idris - don’t love
Axel - hate! Sounds really try hard, sorry

Arthur and Clara :)

Hi. Thank you for your answers. The reason for Aksel is that we live in Norway ( and it’s likely where baby will grow up) and it’s quite a normal here but I see that it might sound different in England.
