I'm sure I have more that I need to think of

I agreed with their father that they could have his surname, and therefore it seemed right and fair that I could give them whichever first names I chose.

So, I've already named my children with my "guiltiest pleasure names"!

I have a Gabriel James, an Ivy Ruth and an Arthur Brian, and why not?

Gilbert. After Gilbert Blythe.

DH would have a fit though!

Girls
Arabella
Persephone
Ottilie
Daphne(We have a Freddie so won't work)
Storm
Aurora
India

Boys
Indigo
River
Achillies

Ruby Arabella

Sound good together!

ooooh - I love Ilya, Valentine, Tiago, River, Raphael and of course the ultimate, Gabriel.

Girls - Silvie, Ines, Octavia, Storm, Misty, but I'll just have to get lots of more cats/dogs because there's no way I'm having any more, and dh is so utterly yawnsville I'd never get any of them anyway. This is the man who wanted to call dc3 Robert or Gary.

I love Hepzibah too.
Bethsheba/Bathsheba is lovely lovely.

I tend to call my kids whatever I darn want to and dont care what others think but even I would have to draw the line at those.

i like gilbert (in honour of gilbert blythe)too!

i also love lavinia or virginia for girls.

and i may have hankered after twin boys that i wanted to name red and blue. perhaps

Love gilbert Blythe too

Dorothy. My favourite granny's name but just impossible thanks to Wizard of oz. Sadly.

Gideon and Humphrey.

Meadow for a girl.

Lolita (yes really)
Roderick
Jeremy
Jaspar
Jethro
Delilah

Anakin
Ozymandias
Darwin
Mercury
Lorne
Thor
Wolfgang
Fox
Jacen(Spelled that way because I'm a Star Wars geek.It's the name of Leia's eldest son.
Anatol
Ambrose

Ophelia(reminded Dh of drowned person), Somerset(our cat ), Marie-Claire(a magazine according to DH!).
