[sevgi]

Hiya

We have got a list of 5 boy's names and 6 girl's names. We would love to get some anonymous opinions on these names. Which do you like best and which do you hate.

Girls:
Olive
Constance (Connie)
Maude
Ellen (Nell)
Jennifer (Jen)
Jemima

Boys:
Reuben
Ivor
Solomon
Albert
Henry

Maude
Reuben

Girls: I like Ellen and Jennifer

Boys: your tastes are different to mine but I would go for Solomon (Sol) or Reuben

Am far too diplomatic to say I hate any of them

Constance & Reuben

Maude

Albert

Maude
Nell
or Olive

Solomon
not sure I would inflict it on any ds though

I think Jennifer would be really unusual these days - lovely name. Solomon would be my top boy name from that list.

love olive and constance, and Ivor but really don't like henry

Girls: Maude; I like Nell but nt as keen on Ellen
Boys: Henry

Girls - I like Ellen, Maude and Constance.
I hate Jennifer (but I like Jenny and Jen)and Olive.

Boys - love Reuben and Albert. Ivor and Henry ok. Don't like Solomon (not sure why though).

Like Connie and Jen/Jenny.

Only boys name I like is Henry, hate Reuben - just find it really pretentious.

Olive - DON'T LIKE
Constance (Connie) - Like Connie but not Constance.
Maude -Very much dislike
Ellen (Nell) - I like this
Jennifer (Jen) - OK
Jemima - OK

Boys:
Reuben - No, sounds like an old farmer
Ivor - No, sounds like a steam train
Solomon - No, too biblical
Albert - No, too old fashioned
Henry - OK

Reuben and Jennifer

Thanks for comments so far. I am sensing most people think our boys list is pretty poor. We have found boys names really difficult so if you hate all ours then do suggest others (but we want slightly unusual yet traditional iyswim).

Like
Ellen, Jennifer, Reuben, Henry

could tolerate the rest but Olive is my least favoured.

My faves girls name is Connie but not keen on Constance.
Fave boys is Reuben

Least faves are Jennifer and Solomon

Albert + Maude/Nell

Girls:
Olive; really don't like this
Constance (Connie); like it
Maude; like it
Ellen (Nell); like it but prefer Eleanor
Jennifer (Jen); not keen
Jemima; really like this

Boys:
Reuben; this is quite popular now and I like it as I hear it more but I don't love it
Ivor; ok
Solomon; like Sol, sounds cool
Albert; like it esp. Albie for short
Henry; lovely too

Go for Ivo - it's beautiful!

But not Ivor (the engine...)

Albert

Jennifer

But am biased and a wee bit jealous as they are family names that for complicated reasons I could not use.

Girls:
I love Constance.
But none of the others, really.

Boys:
None are my favourites, but I quite like Henry.

Girls:

Olive - don't like it
Constance (Connie) - don't like it at all
Maude - Nice
Ellen (Nell) not keen
Jennifer (Jen) boring
Jemima - Not keen

Boys:

Reuben - nice name
Ivor - Don't like
Solomon - don't like
Albert - boring
Henry - ok

I like Olive, Constance, Ellen and Jemima. Maude is a bit old biddy for me and Jennifer boring.

I don't like Ivor or Solomon but the others are ok. Henry is my favourite - love it actually!

(This isn't very helpful is it? Suspect you will come out even more confused ...!)

Girls:
I love Constance.
But none of the others, really.

Boys:
None are my favourites, but I quite like Henry.

oops!
