Hey!

Hoping someone can share some baby name ideas, I'm fairly particular with what I like. But can never quite describe it. I guess I like names that are slightly rarer but not bizarre or weird.

We're struggling to find name options that my partner also likes, for context these are the names I love!

Girls: Bobbie, Winnie, Juno, Romy, Goldie, Olive, Nelly.

Boys: Finley, Bodhi, Jonah.

Can people share some name ideas that are similar to my name style! Hopefully we can find some names that match, and my partner loves!

What is your SO's naming style? Your girl style seems to be cutesy diminutive so if he prefers more formal names then maybe something that can deliver both?

E.g

Henrietta - Hetty
Dorothy - Dotty
Margaret - Maggie
Felicity - Flossie
Veronica - Ronnie

My own daughter is Marcella - Marcie :)

Would your partner agree to Eleanor or Helena with Nell as a short form? Penelope could also be shortened to Nell.
You might also like Wendy, Willa, Valerie, Imelda, Bryony, Seren.

Boys: Jonas, Elijah, Lionel, Harley, Rory, Daryl, Marlon.
