Fire away your baby name lists you have saved in your notes app, however long or short (or make one from your head you don’t have one)

I feel like everyone’s list is full of names they love but couldn’t use or doesn’t work with surname or match other DC names etc so will be interesting to see everyone else’s names and name style and hear any suggestions of what people think each other may like.

Mine:

Girls-
Margaux
Blake
Felicity
Elara
Esti
Estella
Blue
Matilda
Primrose
Emilia
Indigo
Josie
Dottie
Meredith

Calista
Tess

Camilla
Celeste
River
Calaia
Meadoe
Allegra
Cara
Rosa
Lavender
Emmie
Lilac
Lennon
Cove
Indie
Lyra
Etta
Effie
Nellie
Alice
Arla
Soleil

boys-
Ozzy
Blake
Oscar
Noah
Hugo
Sage
Navy
Jasper
Blue
Ziggy
Rhodes
Atlas
Beau
Albie
Brooks
Archer
Orion
Raphael
Rocco
Adair

I love Ivy so much but it’s so popular where I’m from

OP posts:
PickledScrump · 22/05/2024 08:00

@Aglassaday everyone says Ivy is popular but I don’t know of any at all. I loved it but one of my other children has an I name and I didn’t want the same initials.

CurlewKate · 22/05/2024 10:33

@Aglassaday I don't have one any more-but please-Margot or Margo, but not Margaux.

Any particular reason?
I like Margaux as it is the traditional French spelling
