Lewis - ok
Oliver - very nice. Very popular
George - lovely
Mason - no.
Marley - no. Dogs name
Chester - it's ok. Only because I loved Chester Bennington though!
Harvey* - no.

Bella - it's ok.
Laila - ok. Better spelt Layla
Lola - it's ok
Leela-rose - Leela is hideous! Rose is lovely.
Lara - it's ok

Personally not a great fan of any of your girls names. Lola or Bella are the best of the bunch. Love Oliver and George from your boys list.

Lewis - ok
Oliver - classic, very popular and only if you like Olly
George - classic
Mason - No
Marley - No
Chester - No
Harvey - I like it but it's considered a bit ch*v

*Bella - ok
Laila - prefer Leila
Lola - to nicknamey
Leela-rose - No
Lara - probably the nicest on your list

Lewis - not keen
Oliver - love
George - lovely
Mason - not keen
Marley - not keen

Laila - nice
Lola - nice (although I follow someone on Instagram from Yorkshire who has a daughter called lola and she pronounces it "lerla" which isnt very nice
Leela-rose - really hate
Lara - quite nice, kinda posh :)

Stiffasaboard · 31/05/2019 21:02

AmyMaria2 · 31/05/2019 21:24

Oliver and George are really nice & Lara is ok. The rest are awful - cheap / tacky sounding (to me as one random person you’ve never met). You’ll never get a name everyone loves though.

Proseccofuelled · 31/05/2019 21:35

Lila is pronounced Leela & is a much nicer name

yesok · 31/05/2019 21:44

Lewis & Lara are my faves from your list.
Leela-Rose is definitely not my cup of tea.

CaitlinEJ · 31/05/2019 22:43

-Lewis - love
-George - really cute but I see this name as having an image of cute but smart but others may have a different opinion

  • Oliver - love it but very popular, maybe Olly instead
Mason - don’t really like it -Marley - I like it but I kinda see it as girls name
  • Chester - quirky and different
-Harley - not really

-Bella - very sweet and could but I struggle to see an older woman called Bella, maybe shorten a name such as Annabelle to Bella so she has the choice when she is older
-Leila - love it and considered it for both of my daughters
-Lola - I love it I think it has so much personality

  • Leela-Rose - not really, maybe Lyra-Rose or Leila-Rose but I’m not big on hyphenated names
-Lara - alright

If you like nicknames- I do too - you might want to pick longer names. Though you can always make it up. My son is Boris and I call him Borissenko, Borya, Boryenka, Borissovitch and Bobo all the time...

Sophronia · 01/06/2019 19:23

George and Lara are the nicest ones.

Astronica · 02/06/2019 05:15

I like Lewis, Oliver and George from the boys, and Lara from the girls.
