Shortlist and suggestions!

[blondie87]

Hi!

I’m pregnant with DC3. What do people think of the names in my shortlist? If anyone had any suggestions that would be great!

Girls:
Esther
Claudia
Felicity
Nora

Boys:
Arthur
Benjamin
Theo
Jude/Judah
Tobias/Toby

Your girls names are much nicer than your boy names. I particularly like Felicity and Esther

esther- not too keen,
claudia- its okay,
felicity- really like,
nora- really like
arthur- like
benjamin- like but it would be shortened to ben, so depends if you like the nickname
theo- like
jude- not too keen
tobias- really like

a few suggestions:
Emilia or Tara for a girl, Maxwell or Francis for a boy? x

Congratulations. My favourites are Claudia and Tobias/Toby.

Leah
Francesca
Anna
Antonia
Cara
Cora
Michaela

Gabriel
Raphael
Felix
Marcus
Rory

Only like Claudia out of your girls names.

Only dislike Arthur and Judah out of your boys names. Although I adore Jude.
I love Ben but I’m not overly keen on Benjamin.

More suggestions based on your short list.

Girls.
Agatha. Flora. Julia. Penelope. Arabella. Florence. Harriet. Martha. Elena. Deborah.
Catrina. Violet. Elsa. Elisa. Eden. Cleo.

Boys.
Henry. Albert. Victor. Vincent. William. Lucian. Teddy. Francis. Noah. Rex. Finn. Gabriel. Ivan. Leo. Rueben

Esther and Claudia are lovely. The boys names are a bit bland in comparison.

Jude is lovely but dislike Judah.

I’m struggling with boys’ names as I have two sons already and have used up all my favourites 😂

I love Felicity. I like Benjamin or Arthur best from the boys list. Also suggest: Sebastian, William, George.

I like them all, OP! In order:
Felicity
Claudia
Esther
Nora

Tobias/Toby
Theo
Benjamin
Arthur
Jude/Judah

Girls:
Esther - nice
Claudia - nice
Felicity - nice
Nora - really dont like this

Boys:
Arthur - dislike, not sure why it's so popular
Benjamin - love
Theo - love
Jude/Judah - really like jude but dont like judah
Tobias/Toby - really like!

I would choose Theo, Toby or Ben and Claudia or Felcity :)

Thank you for the suggestions!

Not keen on Nora (“Nora Batty”), Esther or Arthur. Like the other names especially Felicity and Jude. I see Theo as short for Theodore.

Suggestions:
Harriet
Sadie
Esme
Dulcie
Maud

Benjamin
Barnaby
Edward
Daniel
Samuel
Seth
Giles
Marcus
Julius
Gregory
Douglas

I really like all of your girls names!

Of your boys names I really like Arthur and Benjamin, really don’t like Theo and Toby, and I’m pretty neutral on Jude

Esther. Prefer Tobin to Tobias. Or Torin.

I like Felicity and Esther, Arthur and Jude.

Frances
Marina
Hope

Seamus
Finn
Leo

Claudia or Felicity from your girls list
Jude from the boys list

Verity
Meredith
Lorna
Lois
Alicia
Lucia
Estelle
Zachary
Vincent
Ethan
Nathan
Jonas
Caleb
Elijah

Claudia and Tobias would be my choice.

Claudia is lovely. I like Nora too, although prefer the spelling Norah as it seems to make it softer somehow.
I love Arthur and Benjamin. Not so keen on the other boys names.

Other ideas - Nadia, Tamsin, Nell, Harriet.
George, Finn, Ethan or Evan.

Felicity is gorgeous name

Boys names I really like Jude or Theo

Suggestions:
Clemmie
Delilah
Edith
Maggie (Margaret)

Eli
Rex
Milo/Miles
Otis

What your thoughts now OP @blondie87
I really like the names you’ve got on your shortlist. Not sure you need to keep looking elsewhere but some suggestions above anyway

Love Arthur too x

Thanks for all your suggestions/opinions!
For a girl I’m swaying towards Claudia or Felicity. I think I slightly prefer Claudia but I am slightly put off by the meaning. Not sure how concerned I am though as I think it’s a beautiful name! Would the meaning of a name put you off?

Boys I’m thinking probably Jude or Tobias but now adding Zachary into the mix!

Oh not Jude! It is so ugly, and will encourage people to sing Hey Jude, which is never OK.

Zachary is really faddy, I think. Stick with Tobias, or just Toby. Great name.

Nora and Jude for me from your list!

Congratulations! All names are lovely.. Jude was on my list for our little surprise (We had a baby girl).
