Already have 2 DS

But current faves are Otis or Albie
Wanting thoughts on Dougie too (family name)

For little girl Annie or Edie
(Middle name will be Blossom or Bluebell I haven’t decided yet)

thanks 🙏🏼

Dougie and Annie. Both great.
I don't like Albie or Otis. Edie is OK.
Bluebell is better than Blossom.

I like Annie.
All your others including the middles are very cutesy, or an aardvark.

I like Edie & Otis.

LOVE Annie Bluebell! Don’t like any of the boys names. Edie is cute but only as a nickname for Edith or Eden.

Dazedandbemused0 · 21/06/2023 13:39

Otis is the best of the boys names, but I don’t love it. Otto? Felix? Jago?

Annie Blossom is fabulous 😍

Thank you all for your input…

I have a Sebastian and Charlie already so want something that will fit.
So I think Albie and Otis “go” with these but I don’t want something to overdone either.

Annie is pretty much (at the mo) the chosen girls name.

I love your girl names.

I'd choose Dougie for a boy. Great name.

SneezyEvie · 21/06/2023 14:51

Annie Bluebell!

Douglas nn Dougie

Edith nn Edie

both great but don’t like cutesy nns as full names

continentallentil · 22/06/2023 01:03

Anna or Annelise nn Annie is also v nice -

CoilQuestion12 · 22/06/2023 09:00

I love love love Annie! And also love Otis. Great choices. I really dislike Dougie for some reason. I associate Doug with a middle aged American man, Dougie makes it sound cutesy/ like a dog name

PurpleChrayne · 22/06/2023 09:01

All dreadful with the exception of Annie.

OopsieeDaisy · 22/06/2023 09:34

I actually like all of them (with the exception of the middle names) but I’m not keen on shortenings being used as a first name. I adore Annie but only as a nn for Annabel/Annabelle/Anneliese which are all lovely.

PickledScrump · 23/06/2023 11:54

I don’t think albie goes with your other children’s names. Very different vibe. Otis and Dougie work better. Annie is lovely but I’d have something fuller, either just Anne or Annalise is beautiful. Blossom is ok as a middle name, I think bluebell is a bit much

shoopshoopdedoo · 23/06/2023 13:11

Love the name Dougie (as a nickname for Douglas). Personally, I’m less keen on Otis and really dislike Albie.

Love both Annie and Edie. I think I prefer Blossom to Bluebell.
