I am so stuck. I have girls' names galore, please give me nice slightly arty boys' names that won't get hugely popular in a year or two

Bit of a Scandinavian theme

Oh, and I loved Linnea for a girl, not that you need any more.

Boco · 15/03/2008 23:10

My friend in Norway has just had a dd called Linnea.

TooTicky · 15/03/2008 23:10

Oh, and my cousins are Piers and Titus - I like those too.

TooTicky · 15/03/2008 23:11

One reason we didn't use it for dd2 is that it would have rhymed with dd1's name.

Tinker · 15/03/2008 23:13

Ragnar is brilliant. I fumbled around went out with a Tor when I was younger

Aitch · 15/03/2008 23:18

i think finn is becoming popular. she doesn't want popular. she'll be onto a winner with ptolemy, then.

Aitch · 15/03/2008 23:26

ahundredtimes · 15/03/2008 23:26
