I quite like Francis (Frankie/Frank) but not sure if that’s because it’s my Dad’s name, and love Francesca but none of the others.

Tiramisu1 · 31/03/2019 11:32

I like Lucien and Antonia!

redwoodmazza · 31/03/2019 11:39

I love RORY!!!!
Lucien, Gabriel [as in Angel?], Dominic and Francis not so much.

Francesca and Antonia are lovely.
Roisin, Muireann and Frida seem a bit odd - spelling/pronunciation.

NuffingChora · 31/03/2019 11:49

Like Dominic and Rory. Really not keen on Gabriel, Lucien and Francis - find them a bit limp.

Like Francesca, Frida (though prefer Frieda spelling) and Roisin. A bit different but not so unusual as to cause confusion. Dislike Muireann - find it quite unintuitive to say, and Antonia - just not my thing.

ReginaPhalange89 · 31/03/2019 11:54

Rory and Francesca are the only ones I like if I'm honest. The others just aren't to my taste though

GreatDuckCookery · 31/03/2019 11:55

Gabriel, Rory and Antonia are gorgeous.

I like Francesca but hate Fran and Frankie.

MadisonAvenue · 31/03/2019 11:59

Gabriel (although I prefer Gabe) and Francis.

Francesca and Roisin. I like Antonia but don't like how it could be shortened to Toni.

Cecedrake8989 · 31/03/2019 12:04

Love all your boy names! In order:

Rory
Lucien
Gabriel
Francis
Dominic

Don't like your girls names except Frida, which I love!

Tiramisu1 · 31/03/2019 12:05

Rory will be very difficult to pronounce for some people (who struggle with R).

DerelictWreck · 31/03/2019 13:13

Boys names are lovely except Lucien. Girls names are all a bit HmmShock

HouseplantInvasion · 31/03/2019 14:06

In order of favourite, I would rate them:

Calixtine · 31/03/2019 17:46

Lucian or Gabriel

Frida (love!) or Antonia

RoseReally · 31/03/2019 17:50

Love Rory, Roisin and Antonia. Like Muireann too but personally wouldn't use it unless living in Ireland.

Shadow1234 · 31/03/2019 17:52

Love Francesca and Antonia
Dominic (Dom) from the boys list

AuntieStella · 31/03/2019 17:54

Lucien - quite like it, but rather Malfoy
Gabriel - don't really like
Dominic - lovely!
Rory - fine
Francis - current Pope (but as your list is mainly strongly Christian names, perhaps that won't bother you)

Francesca - lovely
Roisin - OK
Muireann - don't really like
Antonia -OK
Frida - not keen on this spelling, prefer Freida

Sophronia · 31/03/2019 18:32

I like Dominic. Francis, Antonia and Frida

Mmmhmmokdear · 31/03/2019 18:44

Lucien - meh
Gabriel - love it
Dominic - nice
Rory - nice
Francis - no

Francesca - nice
Roisin - nice
Muireann - not sure how you'd pronounce this - is it Maureen?
Antonia - too old fashioned for me
Frida - ABBA!

Nowordsleft · 31/03/2019 18:46

I like Gabriel, Dominic, Francesca and Antonia.

cptartapp · 31/03/2019 18:57

Like Dominic and Francesca. Really not the others.

RoseMartha · 31/03/2019 19:21

Dominic and Francesca

Bellaposey · 31/03/2019 19:27

Love Rory and Francesca but others aren't really to my taste. Is Frida supposed to be Freida? Surely Frida would be pronounced Frid-a not Free-da.

missmouse101 · 31/03/2019 19:31

Lucien and Roisin are fab. Cannot stand Rory (it's the ugly roar sound) or Frida (OAP name.)

DramaAlpaca · 31/03/2019 19:34

I like Dominic & Rory for boys very much.

Roisin & Muireann are beautiful names, but I would avoid outside Ireland as they are only beautiful when pronounced correctly.

Antonia is a good choice, elegant & refreshingly unusual. I really don't like Frida or Francesca.

bakingisnotforwimps · 31/03/2019 19:35

Rory and Francesca are my favourites, both gorgeous names

17caterpillars1mouse · 01/04/2019 11:27

Lucien- love this but there is the different pronunciation issue
Gabriel - nice enough
Dominic - really like this and youngest Dominic I know is 8
Rory - lovely but i know a few
Francis- love this but I dislike Frank and Frankie

Francesca- beautiful name. Love it
Roisin - great name. I know a lovely 13 year old Roisin
Muireann - no idea how to pronounce it
Antonia- pretty and uncommon. Prefer Antoinette though
Frida - lovely though I prefer Frieda
