Hello,

I never really post here but love reading the baby name threads.

looking for suggestions that are along the lines of the below names and also to see what you like best or dislike completely.

GIRLS
Emma
Phoebe
Autumn
Aurora
Faye
Chloe
Margot
Olive
Eloise

BOYS
Tom
Barney
Gregory
Elijah/Eli
Rory
Hayden
Ralph (like Ralph Fiennes)
Arlo

oh and also do you think any of the names go to together for first and middle names?

I think I like Alexander for a boys middle name and it has family connections.

I’m not even pregnant but hoping to try soon and I already have a little girl. I just love talking baby names 💕

Thank you, I really love Reyna 💕 Luca and Nico from your suggestions. Funny before we found out we were having a girl the last time I was calling my bump Oscar but have gone off it a bit since then!

Emilia - nickname Emmy

JimJamJo · 16/05/2023 19:50

I like all your girls names except Faye, Chloe and Olive. My favourite is Eloise.

I like Tom, Elihah and Ralph from your boys names but have been recently converted to the Rafe spelling which is my current favourite boys name.

Birdiboo · 16/05/2023 19:56

Yes I like the Rafe spelling too as it would avoid mispronunciations I think 🤔

GIRLS
Emma - love
Phoebe - like
Autumn - not keen
Aurora - dweadful

Olive - drab
Eloise - a bit of a mouthful

BOYS
Tom - love if short for Thomas

Elijah/Eli - don't like. They are two separate names, one too long and one too eel-eye

Ralph (like Ralph Fiennes) - not keen
Arlo - not keen

I’m actually pleasantly surprised that so many people seem to like Aurora and Arlo, I thought they had a bit of a bad wrap on Mumsnet lol

what do you think of Emma Aurora? I love the simplicity of Emma but feel like it would need a longer more interesting middle name. Our last name is one syllable S name and pretty bland/boring

Never heard the name Rayna before this thread but that's absolutely beautiful.
Emma is one of my long term best names but not Emma aurora. It's like a tongue twister name
