I really like Kaitlin, Lewis and Harvey from your lists. What about Keira or Florence (nn Florrie or Flo) for a girl and Maxwell for a boy? congratulations!

Kaitlin. Oh I love this. I’ve not heard it in years.
Jessica. Love. Although I don’t like Jessie.
Olivia. Gorgeous. Classic pretty feminine. Suits all ages and all classes.
Isabella. It’s okay.
Arabella. No

Lewis. Awful sorry. Yet I like Louis. I don’t like the look of the name Lewis, IFSWIM.
Curtis. I adore this.
Leo. Is gorgeous.
Leonardo. Not keen on the full name, but There’s an obsession on her with putting the longer name on the BC and using the shorter version.
Harvey. No opinion really. I guess it’s okay.
Casey. Seems too pretty for a boy. I Prefer it for girl.

Amelia. Sophia. Layla. Eliza. Annabella.
Theo. Jude. Huxley. Hudson. Charles.

Oh Keira is good one to add to your list.
Hannah. Georgia. Elena.

LotusClover · 02/04/2020 12:20

Arabella and Harvey are the best ones for sure!

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 02/04/2020 12:21

Caitlin Jenner ruined Kaitlin for me.
Casey for a boy is a little too American for my liking.

Other names are lovely, especially Olivia, Jessica, Leo and Harvey

PlantPotting · 02/04/2020 12:26

Kaitlin is horrible as sounds like 2 names meshed together. A bit like a hyphenated name, which I always hate.

Jessica, Olivia, Isabella , Arabella - love all these options especially olivia and Jessica

PlantPotting · 02/04/2020 12:26

Love all youre boys names except Casey

user1493494961 · 02/04/2020 19:52

Not keen on Leonardo and Casey has a different vibe to the other names on your lists.

123Dancewithme · 02/04/2020 23:23

Isabella and Leo are nice.

shazzy123 · 29/04/2020 12:26

Hi, we're looking at changing our daughters name but we're on the fence about it , we called her Jessica but she gets called Jess a lot, even the doctor said how's Jess , no one really calls her Jessica

We've randomly started calling her Bella so we're thinking maybe to change it to Bella or Isabella so she can be Izzy, Bella or Isabella. Middle name Rose . opinions please 😊

She has a brother called Harvey

Fiflowertot · 29/04/2020 13:03

Love Olivia and Isabella!
Boys, how about Cody, Bobby, Arlo, Theodore

TomBradysLeftKneecap · 30/04/2020 05:06

Casey is a brilliant boys name! I’m Brit/American though and every male Casey I’ve ever met has been awesome. They’ve also all been born since 2001 so not sure where the 80s reference comes from?!

DaiJai1066 · 30/04/2020 05:43

Kaitlin is lovely but so are the other girls names. Cailtlyn spelt like this was originally on our list and now it is going back on.

87Callista · 01/05/2020 23:01
