Please give thoughts, and any name suggestions..... Thanks!

I love Ingrid. Ds would have been one if he’d been a girl.

Laurence and Francis are my favourites on your boy list. Good names!

@VenusClapTrap Thank you! Just not sold on any yet, and doubting - a couple are also very new additions to the list with some pregnancy faves being dropped.

@Fivemoreminutes1 Recently removed Dominic from the list.... As DH has vetoed (honestly don't know why).

I like Heidi, and Astrid!

I like Rosaline and Ingrid.
What about Charlotte or Charles?

YouDidWHATNow · 11/10/2020 16:25

Meredith is also quite an unusual but lovely name for a girl

LaVitaPuoEsserePiuBella · 11/10/2020 16:32

Francesca or Claudia for a girl
Alexander for a boy

Whatsyourflava · 11/10/2020 17:01

Laurence is one of my perfect name picks!
Classic but really underused

Whatsyourflava · 11/10/2020 17:01

For girls I like Nancy and Heidi

whatsbinhappnin · 11/10/2020 17:04

Alistair (although I prefer Alasdair) and Rosaline are my favourites from your options

MikeUniformMike · 11/10/2020 19:12

Boys -
Laurence (Laurie) - wet sounding
Alistair - nice,
Alfred (Alfie or Freddie) - just No
Francis - a bit wet doundmg

Girls - Cameron (Cammie) - just No.
Rosaline - not keen, but I like Rosalind, Rosanna and Rosa
Frances - ok, but a lifetime of pointing out that it's not Francis
Ingrid - nice, also like Astrid
Nancy - fine

formerbabe · 11/10/2020 19:13

Love Nancy

MikeUniformMike · 11/10/2020 19:14

Boys I like Alfred but Alfie is awful. What about Wilfred? Nn Wilf or Freddie

MercyBodle · 12/10/2020 00:03

Ingrid and Alistair are lovely. I also like Laurence and Alfred, Frances and Nancy. Just not Francis or Cameron.

Rosamund

Nicholas

Laurie
Frances
What about a male Francis if you like the name?

17caterpillars1mouse · 12/10/2020 21:39

Alistair and Francis are both gorgeous. Good luck :)
