I've always love Alexis. And then I realised by calling her that I was actually setting her up for a life as a porn star.

 

[Eleanor ace]

Anachy- because he'd sound like a little thug .
Fox- because I'm not that cruel

Aurora- because I can't think of a cute shortened form
Rose and Lydia- because DH has family with these names.

 

[AngelofTroy]

I love Casper, but I wouldn't use it because everyone immediately follows it with 'the friendly ghost'!

Also Lucy and Alice are two names that I love, but I have first cousins with those names and I think it's too close.

I love Corinthian for a boy, but it does sound too biblical.
I also love Nikolai for a boy but we are not of russian descent.

For a girl I like sarah but I know too many sarahs.

 

[Cinderella]

Aurora- because I can't think of a cute shortened form

This is high on my list - mainly with the intention of shortening it to Rory - I think Aurora is beautiful (and it helps that Sleeping Beauty is one of my favourite Disney movies) and think Rory is a cute nickname.

Seren - I remember flicking through a welsh dictionary at school and deciding that this would be beautiful, only it seems to have become quite popular and that doesn't wash with me. Purposefully picking a popular name is one thing (Olivia, Lilly, Kate etc.) but choosing an 'out-there' name that becomes popular feels too gimmicky.

Boys:

Harley - was always what I'd call my son if I ever had one. Started a relationship with someone called Harley and it ended badly.

Ollie - the family cats name.

Milo - A chatacter from the tweenies (kids tv show) and I know so many 4 legged Milos so if I ever get a boy dog that'll be his name as a compromise with myself.


Girls:

Peaches - Too unusual and wouldn't want her to be bullied + Peaches Geldof.

Sophia - My cousins name so itd be a no-go.

Amy - My name hahaha! I don't mean to sound big headed I just think
Amys cute. (hated it throughout school and wanted something unusual)

Aria is on my list- but my two girls have such classic names that I don't think I have the guts to go for something unusual.
