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

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2008 21:06

no there is no name on here so far I actively dislike
but I have a well founded reputation for being slightly ahem picky

the surname thing - imagine my surname is Holden (it isn't) Arden Holden - it's just odd

I think I still have my dictionary of a billion and one baby names knocking about somewhere. Virtually every (real) name under the sun. You can have it if you want?

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2008 21:06

there are some fab names on here
really nice ones

I work with a man called Gabriel. It is a lovely name.

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2008 21:08

Claude and Charles are too posh for us

winestein I have one also - have trawled through it and made list and failed to find anything marvellous

sometimes when I see someone post a name on here I think ah YES

it's much better in context sometimes isn't it?

Yes I'd say no too if I was your dp -sorry. too girly, but then angels are generally male aren't they so don't know why. Strange.
