Elegant, Classy, Charming & Formal Names?

General Name Discussion
1

I’m a big fan of formal sounding names (especially if they have a cute nn)… I’ve never really followed my families idea of “normal names” apparently, every time I run names past my Mum & [name_f]Nan[/name_f] they giggle and I’m feeling a bit defeated lately. I’ve crossed off quite a few names because [name_f]Nan[/name_f] couldn’t stop giggling at them & I don’t want my future little lady or sir being embarrassed every time I say their name.

The names included:
Boys:
[name_m]Edwin[/name_m] [name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_u]Aubrey[/name_u] [name_u]Emmett[/name_u]
[name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_m]Eugene[/name_m] (She seems fine [name_u]Dexter[/name_u] [name_m]Eugene[/name_m] & [name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_m]Jeffery[/name_m] just not [name_m]Charles[/name_m] [name_m]Eugene[/name_m])
[name_m]Phineas[/name_m]
[name_m]Colin[/name_m] [name_m]Barnabas[/name_m]

Girls:
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Penelope[/name_f]
[name_f]Cadence[/name_f]
[name_f]Aylin[/name_f]

[name_f]Nan[/name_f] wasn’t a fan of [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] “[name_f]Cora[/name_f]” [name_f]Lilith[/name_f] either but it’s one of the ones I’m having the hardest time letting go of (even though I have a few girls names in front of this one)

I really like names that have nn ending in “a”, “ie” or “y” eg. [name_u]Abbie[/name_u], [name_f]Annie[/name_f] / [name_f]Anna[/name_f], [name_f]Marcy[/name_f] ect. And prefer longer names that have a nn rather than just giving them a nn mn.

[name_f]Abigail[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] & [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] are my 2 names I’m not changing and thankfully family thinks they’re a “huge” improvement over my other name ideas in the past… I’m looking for some more options as all I seem to get drawn to lately are names beginning with “A” ([name_f]Abigail[/name_f], [name_f]Annabel[/name_f], [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] & Anduin being my top 4 with too many other A names to list) I don’t really want to be like the Duggar family (19 kids and counting) where all my children have the same first initial… :-o
