If you had a baby now

If it were PURELY up to me, without my husband's input.....

Girl : Xena or Athena or Cecilia/Cecelia

Boy : Gabriel or Alaric or Sebastian or Arthur


but if my husband had anything to do with it, he'd say no to all of those names. He'd have no suggestions whatsoever for a girl, and for a boy he'd insist on Quinn

(can you tell we've done this before? lol. Quite how we settled on the names for our three kids I shall never no. It was hard work!)
Boy: Connor, Oliver or William
Girl: Alexia, Georgia or Lacey

Otkem.
Girl: Fiona Anne Charlotte

(Fiona was my grandmothers name and it's just a lovely one in my view, and for the middle names, I have two so they will as well and Anne is a traditional middle name in my family and Charlotte is my mother name)

Boy: Aaron James Oliver

(Aaron, I just like it, it's traditional so they won't get taken the mick out of but it's not so common that three other boys in their class will be called it. James is again a traditional family middle name and Oliver is my grandfathers name)
Slightly off topic but my auntie works in social work and she has to visit some pretty dyer area's, she says some of the parent's call their baby's after celebs and one she visited last week was called , "Wayne Rooney". Another one she has come across named their baby "Elvis Presley" . Completely unrelated to their family name also, what were they thinking :facepalm:

This is brilliant :biggrin: I won't steal the names, but kleos/kudos to you, depending on how ancient Greek you are!

LOLLL.

But OP, if it was a boy, then Aryan or Aarav & if it was a girl then Mallika or Antara
(I'm Indian by the way, hence the odd names :biggrin: )

EDIT: who is going around negging everyone suggesting non-English names? Don't hate for no reason.


Aryan ftw. :five: :biggrin:

If I had a boy: Arya or Shaan
If I had a girl: Aria or Sakina

Girl: Chloe or Sophie
Boy: Joseph or Benjamin (shortened to Joe and Ben most of the time but I would always want my kids to have the 'full' version of any name so that they could choose for themselves how they want to shorten it really!)
Erm

Girl: Abbie / Abby - How ever you wanna spell it.
Boy: James - Simples and goes with all ages of person

Girl - Eliza Naomi

I love the name Eliza and Naomi was my mum's name (it also has the same meaning as my bf's mum's name, so two birds with one stone if I end up having a child with him).

Boy - Simon Alexander

Love the names and it means 'Listening Warrior' which I think is pretty cool.

I quite like names though (not just for potential children) I like finding the meanings, why a person was called that, its origin etc.

If I were braver I might call a child Artemis and/or Athena, because I like the names and the goddesses. But I am not that brave.

haha you can steal them if you want, it's not like I'm going to be using them sadly. I already have three kids and we're not having any more.

I do have a bit of an ancient Greek thing going on I must admit :

Lydia
Alexander
Jason

though they're sort of conventional as opposed to Xena and Athena.
