So, here it is, the fourth(!!!) Guessing Game baby names thread. Shock

All credit to @scotstar for creating the game, back in March 2018. Can't believe how far we've come!

Previous threads here:

The game is simple. Guess the name the poster is describing, then it's your turn! Make the clues as fiendish as you like. Grin

All are welcome to join in! @FintyTin, @Ladywillpower, @LadyGAgain and @DuggeeHugs, come join! (Plus others I've forgotten)

Right, these are all the names we've described so far...

Andrew, Serafina, Eli, Verity, Juliet, Agatha, Phoebe, Frances, Rebecca, Thomas, Cecilia, Leonard, Bianca, Donald, Peter, Niamh, Lucifer, Demelza, Nevaeh, Alexander, Christopher, Miranda, William, Robert, Jack, Jude, Rachel, Margaret, Basil, Hyacinth, Aurora, Jessamine, Nicola, Kerry, Susan, Seren, Julia, Meredith, Bernard, Arthur, Ross, Blanche, Amy, Alicia, Stephen/Steven, Talitha/Tabitha, Ruth, Noah, Rowan, Lucille, Kit, Alice, Lydia, Beatrice, Mary, Jennifer, Keith, Aurelia, Aram, Oliver, Anouk, Heidi, Seth, Rose, Herbert, Sadie, Florence, Niall, Primrose, Ellis, Jordi, Hannah, Hermione, Johnny, Angelina, Frieda, Adam, Gandalf, Poppy, Hazel, Jane, Afton, Susan, Roxanne, Barbara, Stewart/Stuart, Philomena, Isaac, Rufus, Elsa, Morris/Maurice, Ken, Iona, Mark, Roger, Wilfred, Darren, Geraldine, Pascal, Harriet, Russell, Alfred, Nora, Scott, Enid, Jonathan, Nelly, Arlo, Pearl, Beverley, Dana, Toby, Clifford, Cecilia, Lisa, Tallulah, Liam, Declan, Kenneth, George, Rayna, Kezia, Annika, Chantilly, Quinn, Sally, Cornelius, Darcy/Darcie, Peter, Nina, Gabrielle, Marcus, Bruce, Rod, Joshua, Luke, Eve, Belle, Sabrina, Ariadne, David, Martin, Theresa, Breda, Nicodemus, Samuel, Hector, Shiloh, Phryne, Gordon, Cora, Gregory, Aurora, Meghan, Dermot, Paige, Urban, Carter, Ludovic, Harvey, Kristin, Laurence, Cecil, Richard, Penelope, Deborah, Felicity, Melanie, Owen/Owain, Caroline/Carrie, Abigail, Esmeralda, Christabel, Aneurin, Earl, Christine, Clare/Clair/Claire, Jeremy, Tina, Aria, Byron, Patrick, Casper, Imogen, Victoria, Percy, Jean, Sterling, Belinda, Jared, Yael/Jael, Sarah, Scarlett, Zoe, Elspeth, Holly, Gene, Ruth, Sylvester, Erwin, Gladys, Bethany, Fabian, Damian, Helen, Autumn, Venus, Hayley, Ferdinand, Michael, Portia, Katy, Linus, Timothy, Viola, Jacob, Holly, Donna, Ivy, Kevin, Clarence, Nicholas/Nick, Howard, Natalie, Naomi, Max, Calliope, Aaron, Yolanda, Adelaide, Edie, Oscar, Olivia, Charlotte, Morag, Sebastian, Stacey/Stacie, Matthew/Matt, Cameron, Theresa, Jeremy, Simon, Edward, Stanley, Flora, Daisy, Polly, Asher, Douglas, Solomon, Dan/Daniel...

And since @Ladywillpower correctly guessed @FintyTin's last clue, this is @Ladywillpower**'s latest clue:

This old German name opened Pandora's box in 1929. Her royal connections meant that she waltzed off to one of the Channel Islands with the Doctor.

@Clettercletterthatsbetter has guessed Clara!

There's normally more than one of these cakes, or are they biscuits?

Jaffa?

finallychangedmyusername · 23/09/2020 12:19

Haha, no, not Jaffa, although I now know what I want for lunch! Grin

It could be said that the aforementioned film made a big splash at the Box Office.

OP posts:
LadyGAgain · 23/09/2020 14:27

Madeline? Madison?

finallychangedmyusername · 23/09/2020 14:56

@LadyGAgain is almost there! You've got the two distantly-related names (Madeleine and Madison)...

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 27/09/2020 16:14

She might be friends with a Tulip.

OP posts:
LadyGAgain · 28/09/2020 07:30

Arghhhh!! I'm wracking my brain Grin. Brain isn't delivering....

LadyGAgain · 29/09/2020 23:12

Soneline or barking up the wrong tree. Again!

finallychangedmyusername · 01/10/2020 20:32

You were close with Madeleine and Madison!

Although she's floral, she's also quite leafy.

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 10/10/2020 20:39

Shall I give another clue?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 10/10/2020 22:48

I think you have to, we're completely stumped ;)

LadyGAgain · 10/10/2020 23:52

I've tried every angle. Sorry!

finallychangedmyusername · 17/10/2020 22:28

I'm thinking it might be more obscure than I'd first thought! Grin

She's Dutch.

OP posts:
LadyGAgain · 18/10/2020 21:43

Madelon? (I have no idea why!)

finallychangedmyusername · 18/10/2020 21:59

Nope sorry!

OP posts:
Garcellesaidwhaaat · 18/10/2020 22:33

Magdalene

finallychangedmyusername · 19/10/2020 15:54

Madelon is the best guess so far - you've got two out of three syllables correct. Grin

Also I'm now uttery convinced this name is not just rare, but practically unheard of! Grin But I do love it.

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 19/10/2020 15:56

Uttery?! Utterly!

OP posts:
LadyGAgain · 20/10/2020 18:19

Madela
Madellie

finallychangedmyusername · 20/10/2020 21:27

Nope, more leafy!

OP posts:
LadyGAgain · 20/10/2020 23:05

I think you're going to have to tell me! Sorry. I'm stumped! Grin

LadyGAgain · 22/10/2020 22:50

Last ditch attempt!

Tremadela
