From your boys list I prefer Elliot and Isaac. How about Dominic and Oscar?
I like Sophia and Amelie best for girls. How about Madeline and Freya?

Lucas - very popular
Louis/Luis - Louis is ok but popular
Elliott - fine, but a bit wet sounding
Isaac - ok
Caleb- love it but many don't
Conor - nice but was overused about 20 yrs ago so will be a Dad's name

Mia - nice but overused and a bit downmarket. Mere
Sophia - lovely
Eloise - not keen
Evelyn - dislike
Amelie - nice in french. overused over here.

Depends on the surname but Luke or Sophia are the favourites.

You have some great lists @Rnm62

Lucas - love
Louis/Luis - love - one of my favs but prefer spelling Louis
Elliott - love - another one of my favs
Isaac - love
Caleb - love - another one of my favs. Love the sound of this name and it’s history.

Mia - love it. Love how simple it is but beautiful
Sophia - love it - joint fav
Eloise - love it
Evelyn - love it - joint fav
Amelie - really love this name too 🙈 I’m actually quite picky about names but I just really love your lists!

I’ll do some suggestions but I think you should stick with one of your lovely names on your lists:

Imogen
Sadie
Edith / Edie
Margaret /Maggie
Clementine/ Clemmie
Roxanne/Roxanna/Rosanne nn Roxy
Pearl
Delilah
Ottilie / Ottie
Cora
Eliza
Jemima
Holly
Cleo
Mabel

Ps. Really like Conor too- only just spotted that one

Grufallosfriends · 09/03/2020 14:17

I like Luis (Loo-is) and Eloise.

17caterpillars1mouse · 09/03/2020 14:22

Lucas - I really like Lucas
Louis/Luis - I'm bored to death of Louis / Luis
Elliott - lovely name
Isaac - I like it but never met a nice one
Caleb - it's nice enough

I like Elliott and Lucas best

Mia - nice. I know a lovely 1 year old Mia
Sophia - lovely but ultra popular
Eloise - dislike it
Evelyn - lovely but not a fan of Evie
Amelie - it's OK

I would go with Mia

Love Isaac and Sophia.
I like Eloise too just something ugly about it when written down- sorryConfused

MamaDane · 09/03/2020 14:28
