Theo Philip – brother for Elodie and AmelieI have a British twin! lol I love these names and this sibset is amazing.
Anyway, a lot of these names are nice. But Boo? I hate cutesy endearments used as names. It just sounds so pretentious and condescending imo :/

I agree that Boo sounds ridiculous! And I think it is a great sibset even though I wouldn't use those names individually.

I love Bailey for a boy. It is used so much for girls, but it is nice to see a boy with this name.Girls names:
Most all these are cute.
I have to admit my favorites are Charlotte Jacqueline and Annabelle Elizabeth.
Isla Valentina is quite something! I like it.

I am happy to see Oliver but sad that it's getting so much use... I fear it will become a no-no!

Wilf? They couldn't even give the kid a full name and spare him having only an unattractive sounding syllable? And Xanthe Boo? Really? Eek.Ffionn interests me. I wonder if it's actually a name. I guess Ffion could be masculine, too. Or maybe it's just a typo and was supposed to be Fionn!I do like Alexander Stuart quite a bit, but the rest seem pretty much your run of the mill English BAs. Most are nice, but not terribly interesting to me.

I thought the same thing about Wilf! I assume it's parents who like the old-fashioned nickname trend but want something much less common than Alfie or Charlie. I don't watch Doctor Who either but Hufflepuffer may be onto something. I think Martha shot up the charts partly due to that.I've never heard of Ffion being used on a boy but the BA definitely described him as a big brother and tbh I'm not that familiar with Welsh names to know. And Xanthe Boo - not my style at all!!

See, I'm wondering if, this being in England, the parents of Wilf were at all influenced by the character on Doctor Who. I know a lot of people really like his character, and the name itself is kinda old fashioned. That or maybe it's a family name?

Ah, then perhaps. I don't watch Dr. Who, despite my cousin telling me repeatedly to try it. :) Sometime I'll get around to it.I know nicknames as fullnames are trendy in England, but they're all the cutesy ones like Charlie and Alfie and Archie. But Wilf? Doesn't really fit that trend.
