Ryan

Pietro and Lillian

Veronica or Robyn

Anna and Greg

I was OBSESSED with names when I was a child (still am to a degree) and I used to read name books all the time! I wanted Tristan for a boy (big James Herriot fan) but my girls names were always a huge great big long list …including Colinetta, for some bizarre reason 😂 (apologies to any Colinettas out there!)

I ended up with two boys, so no chance to use any of my favourite girls names, but I wasn’t allowed Tristan, even though I still loved it, as my ex husband hated it.

Jennifer and Lindsay, one of them is now my daughters name

Ruth , Laurie ane Melissa

Brett. My best friend and I at the time had a MASSIVE fight about who would get to use it

Ethan or Sebastian

Melissa
I wanted to be Mellisa for a while

Abi or Natasha

Sebastian (I loved the TV programme Belle & Sebastian)

Starr, Jocelyn and Fiona.

Elspeth
Chester

Liberty, I tried to get everyone to call me that when I was in primary school (nobody did !)

Amelia, Rebecca and Tristram

Vanessa or Kirsty. Really not keen now!

Francisco or Roman. I have no European connections.

Mary

My name is unusual and I used to get teased about it so I pined for the simplest, most common name I could imagine

Hmm I liked Chantal (seriously) and Arabella, I wrote a mystery strory and called the main character that. I have a daughter and called her neither. Luckily for her.

Skye

Louise or Carla

When I was really little I thought I'd have twins Gemma and Tracey.
As a teenager I wanted 5 boys and a girl, Winston, Carlton, Layton, Levi, Leroy and Francesca.

My children aren't called any of these although Francesca was a contender for DD.

Lucky or Chantelle.

I thought these were the lovelies names! 🙈🤣

Laura

Courtney

Sage or Paisley.

Then when I became devoted to the Jinny at Finmory books I wanted to be called Jinny.
