Any suggestions on what we might both like?

Thanks.

I wouldn't say they are opposing lists. They are all relatively uncommon, strong-sounding names, several with a hint of a foreign country about them. I'm sure you'll find something you both like. How about:

Anastasia
Anoushka
Saskia
Ariadne
Orla
Erin
Ines
Tara
Imogen
Sienna
Nina
Cerys
Freya

[nevergoogle]

i like ines, but already have a nephew called innes.

Freya was on our list for DS1 had he been a girl, but now used by a friend.

Orlaith was one we liked too.

good suggestions.

[Thenumberjacksareontheirway]

Penelope
Cora
Ottalie
Ophelia
Iona
Francesca
Isis
Daphne
Selina
Eliza
Juno
Corrina
Maya
Vita
Vienna

I agree they're not opposing lists! :)

Sally
Isobel
Laila
Lara
Lyra
Saskia
Finola
Nola
Nora
Linnea

[Anri]

Penelope could have Polly or Nella (not quite Nuala, but similar in sound) as nicknames. It's also Greek like Iris and Demeter but with the same sing-songy, vintage quality as Adelaide.

Iona
Ariadne
Ileana
Perla
Delphine
Adela
Pallas
Amandine
Calliope

[squoosh]

Where the hell is all this Nuala love coming from? It's freaking me out.

Nuala - show him

Thalia - mention Percy Jackson

Orlaith - please just use Orla. The extra ith will cause all sorts of problems (from difficulty with making home-made necklaces to correcting every form). Orla is lovely - but it is Irish, so she will constantly be asked if she is Irish. btw, the correct spelling is actually Órfhlaith, which is a bit of a mouthful.

I like Delphine, Maya (or I prefer Maia) and Lyra too.

[RobinVanPrissy]

You both have good taste in names, although I prefer Fionnuala to Nuala.

Irish?

Aoife
Etaine
Maeve
Caoimhe
Sorcha
Una

Your other names have quite a Victorian ring to them, sp:

Tess
Nell
Nora
Esther
Pearl
Selma
Lydia
Estelle
Genevieve
Lucille
Miriam

[Retroformica]

Madeleine
Matilda

[Retroformica]

Edna
Ida
