I love Jude and Alba and Stella

Amazed that so many like Stella... my association is that of a brash wartime barmaid with a fag hanging out her mouth.

Stella... or maybe the Madam of a Wild West house of ill repute.

Olive, Max and Stella or Olive, Max and Jude are both so sweet.

Also good - Olive, Max and Astrid.
Olive, Max and Tansy
Olive, Max and Barney.

Funny: there's been threads before on Stella and this is the first time I remember comments like this. It makes me think of steel, in a good way, and of a nurse who looked after me well.

Not Nola - it's much too like Olive, and also Enola, which had a very long thread last year.

Of your boys' list Zach is great. Maybe Ted?

I had a friend called Stella, definitely not a barmaid type.

Wasn't there a Stella Rigby, landlady of the White Swan? (showing my age there)

Stella is nice. What about: -
Estelle
Colette
Fern

Casper
Ross
Adam
