You would if you could. :-) favorites!

What names would you use but can’t for some reason?

[name_u]Roscoe[/name_u]. It is so totally awesome. However, I have a son named [name_m]Oskar[/name_m] and they sound too similar so I can’t use it. Argh!! Lots of other people should though!

I agree [name_u]Roscoe[/name_u] is great :slight_smile:

[name_m]Milo[/name_m]
[name_m]Ronan[/name_m]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Liam[/name_m]
[name_u]Spencer[/name_u]
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m]
[name_m]Desmond[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]

Names that were vetoed by hubby:
Boys
[name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
Girls
[name_f]Adele[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f]

Names that are unusable for other reasons:
Boys
[name_u]Tristan[/name_u] - my brother in law has this name, but it’s awesome
[name_m]Milo[/name_m] - adore, however, where I come from [name_m]Milo[/name_m] is a crop that is grown to feed dairy cattle.
Girls
[name_f]Isolde[/name_f] - since brother in law’s name is [name_u]Tristan[/name_u] it wouldn’t work very well.
[name_f]Juliet[/name_f] - love it, but my name is [name_f]Julia[/name_f] which is too close for me.

Oh I looooove [name_f]Juliet[/name_f]/[name_f]Juliette[/name_f] too!!! Can’t use it though… Its actually way too close to out top boy name, I sadly removed it from the list recently after realizing that :-/ lovely lovely

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] as well, but can’t use because I have a daughter named [name_f]Harriet[/name_f]. Same reason I can’t use [name_u]Elliot[/name_u] or [name_u]Emmett[/name_u], other favorites of mine.

[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] is one of my favourites but I have a strict rule about not using the same first letters for my favourite names so I can’t add it. I really like [name_m]Rocco[/name_m] but it sounds too different compared to the name on my list. I really like [name_u]Roscoe[/name_u] too but it’s the name of a family friends son (his older brother is called [name_u]Parker[/name_u] which I really like too). [name_m]Ambrose[/name_m] is also a name I would use if I was a bit more daring with names. Ohh and [name_u]Joss[/name_u] too!

Yea love those -tt names :slight_smile: yea I agree good not to double up on letters too much , keep things varied.

[name_f]Anna[/name_f] (my best friends name)
[name_f]Lara[/name_f] (my sisters name)
[name_f]Lavinia[/name_f] (my step-mums sister has dibs on it so I’d get into trouble if I used it :))
[name_m]Augustus[/name_m] (will now always remind me of the fault in our stars :()
