Hey everyone! I'm currently 32 weeks, and we dont know the gender!!
So far we love a couple names but cannot decide for definite. There's no rush, I'm hoping I'll just know when they're born! I'd love some opinions though..

For a boy we love
Henry James
Michael James
Ronan James

For a girl I'm all over the place! We both like,
Emily Elizabeth
Mabel Elizabeth
Sophia (need middle name)
Melody Rose
Melody April

Kinda leaning towards Ronan, and Emily or Melody :/

Not in love with our middle names for Melody though, what do you's think?

Melody Beth?

My 9 year old has a Mabel in their class. No teasing at all - I don't think kids know which names are 'old lady names' and which are more modern.

Mabel's nice. It's dd's third name chosen long before its resurrection. It was dh's gran's name.

I think James is a good classic. DH's and DS's middle name.

I suspect you will know when she arrives op. We had short lists and suggestions until they were born and our final choices suited the babies they were.

Its my nan's name too :) I always loved it.

Thats what I'm hoping, baby will have an obvious name that suits them when they are here!

Love all your girls names especially Mabel
For boys I really like Henry and Michael. Preference for Michael as more unusual these days @Jodielou5972
Ronan is ok but will get misheard as Roman as that's the fastest rising boy name, currently in the top 20s and still rising. Rowan very trendy too. I'd avoid.

Michael James
Sophia Elizabeth.
