Baby names?! What's made your shortlist?

[scissors]

Finding it really hard to come up with names! We dont know the sex so need options for both. For my son we had Lee or Dylan for a boy and Layla or Mia for a girl. We went with Lee but iv now gone off Dylan for a boy and iv gone off Layla for girl as its become so popular here in ireland that there will be 10 Layla's in each class in school and hubbys not mad on Mia.

We also like for girls...
Kayla (my sis is due 12 days after me and also likes this)
Carla (only one that hubby likes)
Faye
Amelia
Lara

And for boys...
Tommy
Daryl
But we're not even mad on these

Its so difficult to come up with names, whats made your shortlist?

I love the name mia! It was on our short list for DD along with Evie and a few others.

This LO is a boy and it is so much harder! Me and OH arent fussed on ANY names and the ones we each 'dont mind' we dont agree on haha!

I am from northern Ireland but as my hubbie is Arabic I picked Haris for a boy and Amria for a girl.

Amelia is popular to. Boys names are hard. Good luck with picking
