[name]Allegra[/name]: so fresh, spunky and happy
[name]Genevieve[/name]: elegant yet fun. I love the nn possibilities
[name]Odette[/name]: unusual, quirky and beautiful
[name]Francesca[/name]: ultra feminine with a tomboy nn.
[name]Keturah[/name]: I love unusual biblical gems like this
[name]Ephraim[/name]: you got me again with the unusual biblical gem
[name]Linus[/name]: cute yet handsome; I like its old fashioned charm
[name]Viggo[/name]: so strong and masculine
[name]Theo[/name]: My favorite “o” ending name, but I prefer short for [name]Theodore[/name] which is a great gentlemanly name
[name]Milo[/name]: it seems like a happy go-lucky name to me
[name]Allegra[/name] - I really like this name, so sweet and joyful and cheerful! I picture a little girl with tons of curls. And I’m a sucker for Italian names. (And food and men and everything they have to offer)
[name]Francesca[/name] - Same as above, just more serious. I would use nickname Cesca.
[name]Victoria[/name] - Beautiful and classic, it’s the name of one of my dearest friends. If I could, I’d use the Italian version [name]Vittoria[/name]. And I’d use nickname [name]Ori[/name].
[name]Dahlia[/name] - By default I’m afraid. It was this or [name]Persephone[/name]. [name]Dahlia[/name] just seemed softer and sweeter right now.
[name]Keturah[/name] - I like this. I don’t really do Biblical, but this is a bad ass girl name.
[name]Ephraim[/name] - [name]Love[/name] this, used to be on my list so an easy pick. Makes me happy to say, read and hear.
[name]Sebastian[/name] - Beautiful and classic. [name]Shakespeare[/name], a good guy name.
[name]Viggo[/name] - Sweet name, and [name]Viggo[/name] Mortensen is a hot namesake.
[name]Damien[/name] - Like this very much. Very handsome.
[name]Milo[/name] - Cute and fun.
[name]Colette[/name] – Distinct and sophisticated
[name]Willa[/name] – [name]Rich[/name], warm, and down to earth. I really love this name!
[name]Fiona[/name] – Beautiful and distinguished. Cute with the nn Fi
[name]Dahlia[/name] – Pretty and mild
[name]Isla[/name] – Nice sound
[name]Bennett[/name] – Nice, strong sound, reminds me of [name]Jane[/name] [name]Austen[/name] in a good way.
[name]Simon[/name] – Masculine and distinctive
[name]Linus[/name] – I just watched the movie [name]Sabrina[/name] for the first time and this name is really growing on me.
[name]Theo[/name] – Masculine, but understated. I think those are the perfect qualities in a boy’s name!
[name]Sebastian[/name] – A little much for me, but still masculine and sound intellectual.
[name]Francesca[/name] - really classic and beautiful. [name]Frankie[/name] is such a fun nn.
[name]Genevieve[/name] - very pretty, lots of nn opportunities
[name]Victoria[/name] - a lovely classic and I’m so glad you’d use [name]Tory[/name] as a nn rather than [name]Vicky[/name]. Also love [name]Tora[/name].
[name]Isla[/name] & [name]Freya[/name] - tbh, I only picked these because I wasn’t keen on the others. They’re nice enough names, just very popular where I am.
[name]Sebastian[/name] - love this one the most. Classic yet edgy and so so handsome.
[name]Bennett[/name] - I’m not keen on [name]Bennett[/name], but I love [name]Ben[/name] so much. Very cute.
[name]Theo[/name] - although I prefer [name]Theodore[/name]/[name]Teddy[/name], [name]Theo[/name] is lovely and I like ‘o’ names.
[name]Simon[/name] - I don’t know anyone with this name under 30ish, so I’d love to see it on a little boy.
[name]Callum[/name] - I like because of the Scottish/Irish origins and it reminds me of someone
[name]Odette[/name], this is my number one pick from your list. I absolutely love the name [name]Odette[/name], I visualize a little girl who is sweet and happy! Unfortunately, my DH doesn’t like this name or it would be on my list
[name]Allegra[/name], with the nn [name]Allie[/name]. I absolutely adore the name [name]Allegra[/name], it’s so pretty, unfortunately people would probably say like the allergy medicine, but it’s a great name and the nn you picked is sweet.
[name]Fiona[/name] with nn Fi, [name]Fiona[/name] is pretty. Have you ever seen the movie The [name]Secret[/name] of [name]Roan[/name] Inish? The main character in the movie has the name of [name]Fiona[/name]. She is awesome, so I associate that name with her.
[name]Lola[/name], this seems very sassy to me! And I like it.
[name]Francesca[/name] - I have a soft spot for this name, it sounds so classic and charming, with a hint of spice!
Boys
1.[name]Bennett[/name] - Great choice, refreshing sounding and handsome
2.[name]Sebastian[/name] - This name has really grown on me lately, I think that it’ll grow well with a boy plus you have the cute nn of [name]Seb[/name]!
3.[name]Linus[/name] - I think this name is wonderful and doesn’t get much attention, which is good for you b/c your little one probably wouldn’t meet another little [name]Linus[/name]
4. [name]Simon[/name] - This is nice, classic and simple
5. [name]Milo[/name] - This name makes me think of a little boy who is happy all the time
[name]Allegra[/name] - I have a good friend named [name]Allegra[/name], so it has an elegant, fun image for me.
[name]Persephone[/name] - I’m a sucker for mythology, and [name]Persephone[/name] has such a gorgeous sound. I’d probably use nn Sephy.
[name]Odette[/name] - Would be a good way to honor my Cajun/French roots, plus I adore O names.
[name]Dahlia[/name] - [name]One[/name] of my favorite flower names. It’s just pretty.
[name]Indie[/name] - Reminds me of [name]Indiana[/name] [name]Jones[/name], so definitely a winner. I’d spell it [name]Indy[/name].
Boys:
[name]Declan[/name] - I just liked it better than the other ones.
[name]Sebastian[/name] - I love almost anything with a solid Shakespearean background.
[name]Simon[/name] - Reminds me of the character from Firefly, and it sounds intelligent but grounded.
[name]Theo[/name] - I just like the sound. I prefer it as a nn for [name]Theodore[/name].
[name]Milo[/name] - I seem to like names that end in O as well as names that start with O.
I’m a fan of [name]Genevieve[/name], [name]Colette[/name], [name]Isla[/name], [name]Odette[/name], and [name]Francesca[/name] (though not of [name]Frankie[/name], personally).
