For me:

Boys - Rafferty, Felix, Reuben
Girls - Delilah, Maude, Mathilde

I am anti-uniform, working mother, lone parent, don't like tie dye, tattoos or anything hippyish, am unconventional on things like school uniform and sexual antics, degree educated, half way intellectual and will shop in Primark but not poundland.

favourites change all the time, but at time of writing are as follows:

Boys: Louis, Guy, Christian
Girls: Anna, Cordelia, Clementine

Me: In my own words - kind, mad, erratic. I like seagulls and the distant hum of lawnmowers on a summer's day. I hate February icy windscreens. My kind friends say I am caring and intelligent but a little eccentric. I am related to the late John F Kennedy, Gore Vidal and Shirley Temple.

myredcardigan · 10/02/2009 18:34

Boys: William, James and Patrick

Girls: Catherine, Elizabeth and Rosalind

Traditional and a tad snobby about certain things yet very liberal and laid-back about others.

ilovepeppapig · 10/02/2009 18:45

Boys Thomas, samuel and Jack
Girls Lucy, Sophie and Chloe

nearly 40, single parent, trying to juggle everything and still have a life. Dedicated teacher and soft touch where my children are concerned

Early 30s, usually trying to juggle a prof. career and my children as best I can, but at present awaiting the arrival of no.3! Loyal and caring but can be stubborn and argumentative too!

SoMuchToBits · 11/02/2009 12:08

Boys - Jonathan, Peter, Alexander
Girls - Isabel, Juliet, Miranda

Am 47 yr old SAHM

I like classical music, watching cricket, making and eating nice food, being by the sea, white wine.

I don't like being cold, untidiness/unpunctuality, convenience food, people shouting.

I admit to being a tad obsessive and am definitely an individual rather than a "follow the herd" type. I like company, but not all the time.

I love Eggheads and QI, pub quizzes, foreign language dictionaries and maps and love being a geek.

janeite · 11/02/2009 19:08

Won't put my dds' names in so beside them I like:

Girls - Marianne, Elinor, Miranda
Boys - Rowan, Laurence, Gabriel

I am a fairly typical Aquarian who doesn't really believe in star signs; a teacher; a book lover (my favourite author ought to be pretty obvious) and a vegetarian; I like cake, indie music and quirky clothes and I will not shop at Primark. I hate shoes.

bergentulip · 11/02/2009 19:33

Girls - Annabel, Beatrix, Isobel
Boys - Henry, Leopold, Thomas

28 - married to a SAHD, recently 'switched roles', high flying exec in the making with blissfully happy family life too..... well-educated, used to the good life, just can't afford it anymore!!

BonsoirAnna · 11/02/2009 19:48

Favourite girls names: Flora, Zoe, Clementine
Favourite boys names: don't know

I'm English but have lived in Paris for more tthan 17 years (with a couple of short breaks). I like space and time to do my own thing; I hate clutter, mess, cold weather and music, unless I feel like dancing; I am analytical and logical but also caring and creative (it is possible to be both ).
