What do people think of my shortlists?

[loeylo]

We have always disagreed a bit on names - I like unusual girls names but traditional boys names whereas OH likes traditional girls names and unusual boys names!

We have finally got it down to four of each gender, but my main favourite girls names are gone and I don't love any of the boys names, tbh I don't really like any boys names. We think baby might be a girl anyway (based on sonographer a guess at 14w)

Girl:
Robyn
Gracie
Fearne
Lucie

Boy:
Sebastian
Jack
Ryan
Luke

There are some lovely names on there. From your list my faves are Robyn, Gracie (although is officially use Grace and use Gracie as a nn),and for boys I really like jack and Ryan. What were your faves that were taken off the list? X

[MnGmakes3]

I love, Love Grace/ Gracie... that was on our short list too.

Robyn and Sebastian

I like all the names both girl and boy. I'd do what loeylo would do though, and use Grace and nn Gracie.
We have a girls name but if I go overdue and get a December baby I might change it to Robyn as I've always loved it

My favourites are Robyn and Sebastian but they're all nice. I would use Grace too, my daughter's friend is Gracie and as they get older, it suits her less.

 

[Midnight_Fairy]

Lucie and Luke are my favourites. Not a fan of Sebastian x

 

[Delphine11]

I like Lucie and Sebastian.

Not so keen on Fearne or Ryan ( I think it's mainly the spelling of Fearne).

Ryan and Jamie have been my boys names since I was a kid. Luke is just a random one we came up with, I really like Jake/Jacob but my partner hates it. I like Charlie too but again he hates it.
I don't reay like Sebastian because the surname will be 9 letters long so with Sebastian that is an 18 lettered name. But that is my partners ultimate name, although it totally doesn't suit in with the others and I'm scared the kid might hate it.

For girls I love Mila, Orla, Brooke, Scarlett, Bethanie and Maisie. He thinks Brooke and Scarlett sound like pornstars, he doesn't like Mila and Orla as the surname starts with an A which makes it a bit of a mouthful. He also has a speech impediment which makes him struggle to say "th" - it comes out as "f" so he would end up saying "befany" and not Bethanie. So that one is out (it's my fave!)

Maisie was a last minute contender as my gran was Mary (known as May) and we used to call her Maisie as a pet name. We were really close and she died 2 months before I met oh. But he hates the name! It makes him think of maize.

I suggested Grace but he feels it's quite old fashioned, his gran was Grace so we thought Gracie was sort of a modern twist on an old name (plus it goes well with Maisie for #2 )

Robyn was just a random choice, as was Fearne. I don't like it spelled Fern though as I think it is a bit old lady like. (Probably the Fearne Cotton/Fern Brittan connection, lol) - also Lucie was just a random choice but is probably my least favourite!

Actually, I had another idea. Maisie-Grace!

 

[RubyRainbows]

I'm not a huge fan of Maisie or Grace - but I have to admit Maisie-Grace sounds really nice together!!

 

[JessyG]

Love Maisie. My oh doesn't like it either sadly!

 

[Bevziibubble]

Lovely names. I love Lucie (although prefer the spelling Lucy) and Jack
