Really love your girls list, OP.

Girls:
Luna - love this it's quirky but not that unusual
Ruby - lovely
Melody - really pretty but could become Mel
Nina - One of my favourites and a good international choice
Honey - it's ok
Rose - ok but a bit overused and boring, I prefer Rosa

Boys:
Benjamin - love this
Dominic - make me think of Dominic Cummings or the word demonic
Nicholas - it's ok
Ross - it's ok but makes me think of Ross from friends
Dexter - it's ok

BabyDust13 · 20/05/2020 21:39

I love Melody and Rose or Nicholas and Dexter

TheRoyallingStones · 20/05/2020 22:41

Really like Ruby, Nina and Rose

The other girls names are ok except Honey which is awful

Love Benjamin and Dominic
Nicholas is good too
Not a fan of Ross and Dexter

Ruby - love
Melody - I prefer Elodie. Don't like Inevitable "mel".
Nina - love
Honey - like a porn star. No
Rose - beautiful - love

Boys:
Benjamin - love

Nicholas - dislike. My friend called Nick said everyone always rhymed it with Dick.
Ross - unpleasant sounding name.
Dexter - love

skinnyhotchoc · 20/05/2020 22:47

I actually really like Honey but I will be in the minority. I would pick Rose from your others

I don’t like any of the girls names but of the boys it would be Dominic , Benjamin and then Nicholas .

Sittingontheveranda · 21/05/2020 01:21

Rose and Ross.

I'm not a fan of any of the other names you listed.

mamablondie2 · 24/05/2020 18:20

Girls:
Luna - like a lot.
Ruby - LOVE. Do not be swayed by popularity comments, it’s gorgeous! And no where near as popular as Evie/Olivia etc
Melody - No it’s too fussy for me
Nina - bland
Honey - I like it but don’t know if I would be brave enough. Would make a great middle name!
Rose - very popular middle name choice right now. I find it a little bland but that’s personal taste

Boys:
Benjamin - no
Dominic - no
Nicholas - like a lot!
Ross - dated, sorry
Dexter - really like!

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 24/05/2020 19:00

Girls:
Luna - not keen
Ruby- OK
Melody - not keen
Nina - not keen
Honey- stripper name
Rose - nice but very overused at the moment.

Boys:
Benjamin - classic
Dominic- right now all I can think of it that nob Dominic Cummings. Shame as it's a lovely name.
Nicholas - my least favourite boy's name ever!
Ross - classic
Dexter - OK

I prefer your boys names, OP.

Dom or Nina

Quizeerascal · 25/05/2020 13:11

Girls:
Luna - Sounds a bit celebrity/Harry Potter-ish to me but not awful
Ruby- Fine but a bit bland imo, theres been a lot in the last few years
Melody- Again a bit celebrity-ish imo
Nina- Sounds quite classic, due a revival I think
Honey- Sounds a bit tacky on anyone older than about 5 imo
Rose- lovely classic name

Boys:
Benjamin- lovely classic name
Dominic- a bit bland and associated perhaps with public enemy number 1 atm
Nicholas- classic but not as nice as Benjamin
Ross- a bit dated imo
Dexter- nice, not too popular but not my taste
