Please help! I'm giving birth soon and we still can't agree/ decide on a name for DC3. I have a DS and DD, and DS has the only boy name DH and I both liked.

If I was having another girl, we have loads of options. But we're not!

I'd like to avoid anything beginning with A, J, P or R. Bonus points if it's an S name as my DS has decided that's a good initial for his baby brother for some reason.

I like unusual stuff, but not so unusual that it doesn't sound like a name. Maybe more names that have dropped out of use. Definitely nothing in the top 100 or so.

Below are the girl names I like, can anyone suggest some boy's names please?

Adeline
Aisha
Apollonia
Branwen
Christobel
Clementia
Cordelia
Eiriana
Elisheva
Esmerelda
Gracetta
Hazel
Hepzibah
Juliana
Lillith
Majella
Marilla
Rosaria
Suadela
Tabitha

Oooh, you are all good! Some names I love and had on the list and DH has objected to, and some new ones I really like to try and convince him with.

DS's name has been mentioned so you're all definitely on the right lines!

Who cares really? Just bear in mind that most first names with more than 2 syllables end up getting shortened, so are pointless.
As for middle names: totally pointless other than parental indulgence.

The OP cares …. Which is why they posted this thread ….

I know a boy called Rosario which is similar to one of your girls names. Also Sullivan (sully) or Hallam (Hal)
