Hiya

I have to say that I do like all of the names you have suggested. For the boys my preference would be Albert and Henry (Hen is a cute nickname)

For the girls, I particularly like Olive and Jemima but all lovely names. I know a very special girl called Jemima and she has many different nicknames: Jem,Jimmy, Jim, Mima, Mi-mi and Jim-jam. (I noticed you had put nn in so thought you might be interested in some for others?

HTH!

love connie, jemima, nell, not so sure on maude, jennifer

boys not sure on Ivor love henry and solomon

Girls:
Olive - don't like it
Constance (Connie) - love it
Maude - love it
Ellen (Nell) - like Nell, not Ellen
Jennifer (Jen) - love it
Jemima - like it

Boys:
Reuben - not for me but like it
Ivor - no
Solomon - not for me but like it
Albert - like it. Like Bertie too
Henry - love it

Jennifer, can be Jenny or Jen too

Henry, at a push, not that keen on any sorry.

Jemima

Solomon

Jennifer for a girl

None of the boys' names grab me, sorry.

I love Jemima and I like Solomon. Am also liking someones suggestion of Ivo instead of Ivor.

Constance

Henry

Ellen
Henry

Favourite girl's name from your list is Constance (Connie) and favourite boys name is

Solomon (Sol) but then I am biased as ds is Solomon , we always get nice comments about it as it happens and it really suits him.

Reuben and Jennifer - I like both of these a lot.

Olive is horrible, as is Ivor; sorry, sorry but you did ask. Don't like Albert or Jemima either.

anon opinions? ahh well, as anon as mn is
only one name i like in each list...sorrrrryyy!!
G : Jemima
B : Henry

I like Jemima and Henry

I like
Henry and Albert
Maude (although a bit pretentious if you arent actually french) and Jennifer

Jemima
Reuben

Nell
Ivor

my mum's name is olive! She has always hated it though.
I like it and have noticed it become popular in trendy parts of london.

girl: Ellen by a mile (but not Nell)

boy: none

they are all a bit ponderous

Prefer Ivan to Ivor

OK other poss boys names along the same lines as your choices:

Adam, Samuel, Daniel, James, Jonathan, Luke,
Christian, Zachary, Benjamin....

Maude and Solomon as someone said Sol is a cool shortening

Like Nell and Reuben.

Jennifer is deeply ordinary but perhaps that's just a generational thing, having had about seven of them in every class throughout my school years. I prefer Genevieve.

Nothing on your boy list makes my heart flutter but I would prefer Ian or Ivan to Ivor.

Connie & Reuben. Not so keen on Constance, can Connie be short for anything else? Not that it matters - just wondering
