My shortlist
Boys Girls
Albert Athena
Blake Charlotte
Haydn Elizabeth
Matthew Elodie
Peter Georgiana
Imogen
Phoebe

I already have a James Thomas. What do you think of these names? I'm open to other suggestions that will go with James. Not sure what we're having yet :)

Girls - Imogen and Elizabeth
Boys - Peter (I may be biased as I have one of my own). It's been great to have a classic name that is underused at the moment. Lots of positive comments.

I really like Elizabeth or Imogen with James. Independently I like Elodie and Athena.

I think Peter goes will with James too :)

Athena is my favourite girls name ever but hubby wouldn't let me use it for our daughter. Also really love Blake from your boys list.

I love Georgiana! Georgie for short, Elodie is also gorgeous and still short-listed if we ever have number 3!

I really don't like Haydn I am hoping you made a typo as I am sure it should be Hayden. Not too keen on Blake or Elodie but I like all the rest.

I think Athena and Imogen are the current front runners, but I'm scared that Imogen is getting a bit popular. Elizabeth or Charlotte I think would be middle names, although I do quite fancy Bette after my grandmother. All this and it'll probably be another boy!

I did have more boys names (mostly Irish ones - Aidan, Ronan, Eamonn) but my husband hates them all!

I really like Blake or Matthew
I only like Charlotte out of the girls- my daughters middle name.

I have a Matthew and intend in calling the one I'm cooking Peter (unless it's a girl) so you can which get my vote. I like Elodie actually which surprises me as I'm more traditional generally
