i love the name Finn but it’s my dogs name , still go for it though and Julia

axolotlfloof · 30/04/2022 20:58

I like all your boy names. Will Finn be Finlay?
I am not keen on any of your girl ones, but particularly not Violet (too close to violent).

Wow! Lots of positive responses 😊

It would just be Finn, not as keen on Finlay @axolotlfloof - also, I see what you mean about Violet/Violent!!

Torn between Julia and Zoe. I think I'm swaying towards Luke for the boy name. I love William and Will, but I don't like Willy (I know he might not get called Willy, but its a possibility!) William is DH's favourite though.

Also re Zoe popularity, I am a bit concerned about that tbh. I'm going for a name that's well known and easy to say, but not overly used.

I would go with Zoe and Finn,

we have a Zoe and is a teenager now who has never had anyone in her class with the same name.

Julia and William. I hate Willy too, but I don't know anyone who has it shortened to that.
