Boy/ Girl names that go with a 1 syllable surname!

[Cheekster]

Please help with this one!

It was easy with DS1, we both agreed on the name Noah from about 12 weeks pg and both loved the name (although chose not to tell the family until he was born)

This time its so much harder, these are what we have come up with - but none really click iykwim.

Girls
LOLA
MAGGIE
EVIE - though getting too popular
ISABELLE/ISABELLA
MADELEINE

Boys
ISAAC
SAMUEL
VINCE
SETH - but this sounds odd with our surname

Please tell me your HONEST opinions and feel free to add more to the list! I will keep you posted with our opinions

I'm taking her to Glamis

we're going on sunday, I think I'm more excited than the girls are

I plan to go Sunday too, that's why I aksed you what time, we could meet up. Last year DD was totally cool with the man and I also got her face painted in the gift shop. Queue didn't take that long, it wasnt hugely busy and the grotto was beautiful. Santa apparently arrives at 1pm. but I missed that bit so maybe it's busier then. Maye I should plan to go for that so that it's more of an occasion

Oooh Oooh, how exciting to find people who live near me!
[waves] Hello!
(sorry to hijak thread)
My DD1 is going to Beauty and the Beast tomorrow with her school (at the Rep) and I was meant to take her to Camperdown with a friend to see Santa today but she wasn't well
Might do Glamis next week instead, have heard it's good.

Er sorry, just got excited there!

About your names, I haven't read the whole thread but for a girl I love Isabella and we had picked Annabel/Annabella for a girl this time. Both sound good with a short surname I think. For a boy I also love Ruaridh, also like Samuel from your initial list.

Delighted, do you know we have a local thread?

No, SantaKLAWs I didn't know.
Am off to bed now, but will come and say hello soon!

(BTW I assume you are the famous KLAW doula? Have been hearing recommendations for you!)
Lovely to meet you

sorry Cheekster, have monopolised your thread rather...

better give you some more name suggestions

Catriona
Erica
Ella
Honor

and perhaps you could check out Celtic name pronounciation here as I can't think of any boy names to suggest.

Apologies for the obvious Celtic leaning

I have a one syllable surname (think similar to boy) and have found that softer sounding names with at least two syllables work best. Personally I wouldn't choose a diminutive for a given name, so although I like Maggie, I would have to have Margaret, Margery, Margarita, Margo or Marjorie for full. Not sure I'd go for any of them though to be honest I also like Sylvie of your girls names, and all your boys names except Caleb - prefer Isaac. We were going to have Ezra if we had had a second boy.
