I'm hoping this will change once I get a solid couple for each! Just wondering what people's opinions were on the below

Stanely
Harrison
Theodore
Alfie
Oscar

My fave two girls are Robyn and Freya.

I love Stanley. I know a few so I think it's gaining popularity. Similar with Frank

Tokyo87 · 18/03/2021 20:18

It's so interesting to hear what others think! I'd love to choose a name that other people hear and say that's a lovely name haha but I suppose that's just not always going to happen!

@lockdownbabyx yes I like Eloise, it's very pretty but I know one!
@shipperssss now you've suggested Isaac, it's growing on me actually! Always been a name that caught my eye

I also quite like Neve for a girl, it was my number 3

Theodore & Oscar are lovely.

I also really like Freya & Robyn. Robyn is popular here at the moment, through work I know of two under a month old.

Is Neve pronounced Neeve? If so I would use the proper spelling Niamh.

@Tokyo87, I love Isaac and Neve. Do you like Elijah or Caleb ?

Evan

I love Isaac! Such a gorgeous name

TatianaBis · 19/03/2021 11:28

I like Theodore & Oscar but they're super everywhere.

I LOVE Robyn. It was on my boy and girl lists.

I like all your boy names except Harrison because it sounds like a surname which isn't my style. Nothing wrong with it though.

Absolutely love both Robin and Freya - though do prefer Robin spelt like that. Am not mad on Neve but prefer spelt traditionally as Niamh. Other thoughts (slightly less popular than Robin and Freya) - Stella, Elowen, Ffion, Tessa, Adela, Laurel, Ciara, Sorrel, Ines, Thora, Pearl, Cleo, Fenn, Frances.

Of your boys names I'd go for Stanley - jolly and not overused. Issac is great too. Theodore and Alfred are lovely, Oscar is nice - but they are all v popular. Harrison I don't like. Other thoughts - Franklin, Nathanial, Elijah, Miles, Kester, Abel, Cassian, Casper, Tristan, Jasper, Rafe, Lucas, Jude, Max(imillian), Alexander, Alistair.

Nice to hear a few more likes for Robyn 🤣
I didnt realise Neve wasn't a proper spelling, I think I was thinking of the actress Neve Campbell haha. I do like the Irish spelling of the name but just worry about having to constantly tell people how to pronounce it.
@Amdone123 I don't mind Elijah not so keen on Caleb though

I had Theo on my list - I also liked Leo, Zachariah and Benjamin.

Tokyo87 · 19/03/2021 14:26

@partyatthepalace Ooo I love Adela! I haven't come accross that name before. And Cleo is pretty but I can't help but think of the car, even though I know it's spelt differently 🤦🏻‍♀️
And love Max but that's the name of the friends little one, I do like Alexander, but was thinking for a middle name

Oh good - I think it's really elegant and underused!

partyatthepalace · 19/03/2021 15:10

Cassia and Serena also have similar feel.
