[Opinions] Re: Rate my recent GP boy names :)
I can see Tess as boys name! Maybe as nickname for Thomas or Travis?I know quite a few pubs and hotels named Belvedere (with its meaning being “beautiful view”) so I struggle seeing it as a first name. Cymbeline (2) has always struck me as feminine (but I have never read the play)Dashwood (7,5) is dashing! It makes me think of the Jane Austen’s Dashwood sisters. On that note my gp is Bingley! Kitto (8) - Never heard of it before, but I like it! Oleander (6) - Makes me think of HP, eventhoigh the character is named Olivander. I can see the appeal. Ionia that I look more closely it looks like the combination of two Scandinavian named: Ole and Ander(s)Ptolemy (4) - how I struggled with this name! It took me a long while to learn how to pronounce it and I think a child will struggle how to spell it. The name also reminds me of chemistry?

Thank you for the reply, I’m happy to hear someone else likes Tess! Thomas is a good idea for a fn for it. And I love to hear you like Dashwood; Bingley is so fun!
