I don't like any of your boys names - sorry

I love Clara and Elsa.

APassionateWoman · 03/05/2010 19:17

Clara and Thea are nice.

Dislike your boy's names I'm afraid.

pointydog · 03/05/2010 19:31

I like Clara a lot

DuelingFanjo · 03/05/2010 19:37

Only like Edie

Biscuitbreaker · 05/05/2010 10:19

Janeite I like Barnaby but with my last name being so long, I was thinking shorter would be better...

Edie is my fave - it's a family name, but people close to me have used it, so it may be off the table!

Like Thea and Edie and Seth best.

What about Alex? Sebastian? Ethan?

Biscuitbreaker · 05/05/2010 10:39

I like Sidney for a boy, but am just imagining our parents' faces...

Love Elsa and Clara (I really wanted Clara for one of my girls but got vetoed by DH). Don't like Marla or Edie at all.

Not hugely keen on boys names. Other suggestions along those lines - Jonah, Ely, Isaac, Abel, Joseph.

CuppaTeaJanice · 05/05/2010 11:53

I'd avoid anything with an L in it - becomes a mouthful with the surname.

I like Seth for a boy. Jonas is a bit porn star/Jonas brothers.

Edie is the best girls name, but if you know loads, what about Erin, Eden, Effie (nn for Josephine or Elizabeth).

diddl · 05/05/2010 12:01

Don´t like Marla or Edie.
Like both boys names.

oceryo · 05/05/2010 12:26

Elsa Littlewoods - quite like, but too many l and s sounds with your surname?
Clara Littlewoods - very nice name
Thea Littlewoods - OK
Marla Littlewoods - the l sounds are a bit close together
Edie Littlewoods - quite like

Boy:
Seth Littlewoods - I like the name Seth but with your surname it has several s and th sounds, a bit awkward to say
Jonas Littlewoods - not keen

oceryo · 05/05/2010 12:42

Josephine Littlewoods
Mary Littlewoods
Georgia Littlewoods
Cara Littlewoods
Harriet Littlewoods
Sylvia Littlewoods
Jane Littlewoods
Rebecca Littlewoods
Julia Littlewoods
Rowena Littlewoods
Martha Littlewoods
Jennifer Littlewoods

Barnaby Littlewoods
Aiden Littlewoods
George Littlewoods
Adam Littlewoods
Alexander Littlewoods
Richard Littlewoods
Sylvester Littlewoods
Reuben Littlewoods
Elijah Littlewoods
Austin Littlewoods
Charles Littlewoods
Ethan Littlewoods

Love Edie for a girl.
Like Jonas, but not Seth. Would be constantly thinking of Seth Armstrong.

Biscuitbreaker · 05/05/2010 13:11

I had to google him... I like his 'tache

GuntherMcKilocodie · 05/05/2010 14:22

Clara for a girl, either for a boy. Cool but classy, I like your style. (p.s. how about Tess for a girl?)

Doozie · 05/05/2010 14:22

Of your girls names, I especially like (in order of preference):

Thea
Clara
Elsa

Along the same theme.. how about Tessa, Mattea, Flora, Alice, Anna, Celia, Leah, Sophia, Emma?

Sorry, I think we have different taste in boys names!

Doozie · 05/05/2010 14:24

Sorry forget Leah, it is too much with Littlewoods! Actually a lot my suggestions don't sit very well with your surname. I think Clara goes best from your list.
