Thank you for the lovely response! Normally my name taste gets slaughtered on here though my two DC have unusual names (not on the list) and these are frequently complemented!

Any names you’ve been loving recently? Xx

There are some lovely names on your list. Felicity has always been a favourite of mine. We have a Tabitha in the family. Objectively it's a nice name but I can't get past associating it with being a cat's name (thanks a lot Beatrix Potter!)

My current favourites:
Vianna
Isolde
Larissa
Marigold
Aurelia
Amelie
Freya
Mirabel
Meredith

Corvin
Ellis
Sebastian
Andreas

I can't use Meredith anyway because I live abroad and I shudder to think how people would pronounce it 🤣. But I've never seen Grey's Anatomy so I don't have that association. Apparently there were people with Meredith as a surname way back in my family tree.
