Jane and Susan. I really like these names but most people on here seem to use them as examples of plain, boring, dated names.

Stanley.

There are no downsides in this name at all.

Works for old men, young men, boys, cats, dogs, goldfish. All round brilliant name.

I think names like Zoe, Juliet and Nina are under-rated... maybe we associate them more with adults of our generation than babies?

I agree on Jane (lovely, not plain) and Zoe -beautiful ancient saints name thats been around for thousands of years (although many people wrongly think Zoe is a fairly modern name).
