Clear order of preference for me:-

Alice and Christopher are my top choices.

Felicity and Alexander are ok.

I'm much less keen on Anneliese and Robert.

Alice and Robert

Anneliese is nice but not sure how to say it - Anna Lees or Annelisa? Spelling too fussy if it's Ann-el-ees'. Felicity is nice but too long.
Christopher and Alexander will be shortened.

I love Alice - beautiful name! I like Anneliese too. I find Felicity a bit long / posh as a full name to use day to day, and the diminutives are a bit informal for work etc, imo.

I like all of your boys choices - my favourite is Alexander. I quite like Robert, and Bobby / Robby etc for short. I like Christopher but Chris sounds a bit middle aged and Kit sounds a bit childish for a man (again just imo)

You have good taste.

I've put my favourites in l order

Girls:
Alice 3 (not keen on this- a lice)
Felicity 2 was on my list.
Anneliese 1- love!!

Boys:
Christopher 2
Alexander 1 (love! DD would have been this if a boy)
Robert 3

Felicity and Alexander

honourable mention to Alice

MinervaMcGonagallsCat · 31/05/2024 18:08

Alice but don't like the other 2.

Robert and Alexander are both excellent

Penguins3 · 31/05/2024 18:11

Alice and Christopher

shoopshoopdedoo · 31/05/2024 21:45

Love Alice. Not a fan of the other two.

Love Alexander, like Robert, don’t mind Christopher.

Mumofgirls2017 · 31/05/2024 23:38

Alice and christopher

WaitingForMojo · 31/05/2024 23:48

Alice and Alexander. also like Felicity.

Needanewname42 · 31/05/2024 23:52

From your girls list - Alice.
The others are too fussy, not sure how they are spelt or pronounced.

I'm struggling between Christopher and Alexander both great names. I like Robert it just seems more dated than the others. Which is daft because they are all traditional names.

DramaAlpaca · 01/06/2024 02:19

I like them all except Anneliese, which is fussy in the extreme.

My favourites are Alice and Robert.

timoteigirl · 01/06/2024 09:23

Alice and Alexander

peaceinourtime · 01/06/2024 16:12

Felicity

mathanxiety · 01/06/2024 16:58

I love Alice and Robert.

The rest are either a bit too frilly for my taste (girls) or a bit generic (boys).

I know a gazillion boys named Alexander "Alex" and girls named Alexandra "Alex/ Ally".

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 02/06/2024 23:26

Alexander and Alice are so classic and timeless- kind of can’t go wrong names.

Second choice would be quirky, fun Felicity and Christopher (purely as the Kit nn is so cute) .
