My DH and I seem to have no problems in finding girl's names we love. At the mo I love Naomi and he wants Megan or Amelie.

We're despairing with boy's names. At the mo the only one we can agree on is Ewan but I keep having second thoughts about that. We want something that isn't too run of the mill but isn't out there either. Any ideas/opinions welcomed!!!!

Rafael - LOVE IT. Rafa for short. Reminds me of a certain tennis player. But it's MINE

Naomi is much nicer than Megan imho.

Not fond of Ewan. How about Edmund? Or Rowan?

How about Noemi - Italian version of Naomi

I do like Amelie and that was one of my choices until my best friend stole it . But it has got very popular recently

I called my daugther Tallulah and still love it. Very polarising though. She is a very gorgeous Tallulah though!!!!!

My sister called her daughter Biba - which I love as well

Naomi lovely and not much used these days. Loads of Amelies round here. Prefer Meg to Megan (not sure why).

I liked Ewan with my first, but got DD, then went off it by the time DS arrived. With no. 3 I quite like Rory. Boys names are tough, eh?

I think Naomi is a lovely name. Amelie and Megan are both pretty popular. What about Regan or Tegan?

Ewan is nice, or Fergus? Unusual but not out there?

Naomi....very nice

Megan....love it

Ewan...great name

Jamieandhismagictorch · 21/05/2010 10:59

Naomi - nice
Megan - I don't like this as much
Ewan - good name. I prefer Evan though

Naomi is lovely. Megan is nice too but it has been (is?) very popular. I love Maggie instead of Megan.

Ewan is nicer than Evan. I like Fergus too

First Amelie, second Naomi, third Megan.

swanandduck · 21/05/2010 13:36

When did Amelie come into this? I thought we were choosing between Megan and Naomi.

I like both names but prefer Naomi.

swanandduck · 21/05/2010 13:37

Oops, sorry, just read the OP and realise she added it in after the title. Well, I think it's a bit popular and if you're not French I think Amelia is better.

SillyTillyBilly · 22/05/2010 11:41

I adore Naomi but there is sometimes confusion about how to pronounce it (2 slightly different ways). I like Megan too but find Amelie pretty but overused and prefer Emily.

Ewan is great - simple but unusual.

hhg · 22/05/2010 11:43

Rowan for a boy?

mathanxiety · 22/05/2010 19:21

I love Naomi, dislike Megan and I think Amelie is very popular, and a little on the frilly side.

I like Euan, with a U.
