Unfussy Name Help

Hi folks,

I've realised I prefer unfussy names (to me, they seem unfussy anyway!).

For girls, I'm between
Cara
Zoe

For boys, it's
Rory
Luke

Any help deciding would be much appreciated!

I like Zoe and Rory

I like Cara and Luke. Lots of Rorys around at the moment

Agree I know lots of Rory's. Love Cara

Congratulations on your baby OP.

Can I just suggest if you've got it down to two names, just wait until you've got him or her in your arms and keep looking at them. Obviously you will. But keep trying out the alternative names and you'll soon decide which one suits best.

I’ve always loved Cara and found Clara is similar but a bit more unique maybe, certainly is in my area. Congratulations on the baby!

Cara. Rory.

SkaneTos · 08/11/2023 23:20

Cara, Zoe, Rory, and Luke, they are all great names!

I agree with @martinisforeveryone about waiting to choose.

Aria999 · 08/11/2023 23:21

I like Cara and Luke

UsingChangeofName · 08/11/2023 23:27

I like Zoe and I like Luke.

I also like short, neat, unfussy names and I like all those on your list.

I'd pick Zoe or Rory.

Ah lovely comments so far! Thanks everyone.

Lot of love for Cara :)

Cara and Luke for preference here.
I also like Emma, Andrew, John, Anna Rachel, Martha, Daniel and James as strong unfussy names.

I think they’re all lovely and you should see what the baby looks like and if one feels right and then choose 😍. Bonus is if you have another there

muddyford · 09/11/2023 18:22

Cara and Luke, but all OK.

Daisybuttercup12345 · 10/11/2023 23:47

Cara or Rory
Carla?
