Oh, I love the alliteration of Philippa Florence Jane! Two-MN combos are always better with alliteration.
Barnie, Harry, and Pippa Annie are adorable.
Pippa Fay is nice too. Odd that I've liked two Pippa combos here--I don't usually go in for all that.
Oh my there are two more Pippas! Stop, people! Stop! (Well, the sibset Catherine, Martyn, and Pippa is quite charming...)
Polly Alethea is raw.
And all those Poppies...blah!
As an American I'm always charmed to see Paddy used as a FN. Paddy John Christopher is lovely.
Patrick Michael Antonio is classic and hardcore.
Peter Harold Taylor is gorgeous and distinguished.

Gah, I hate Phoebe and I'm really not a fan of Pippa or Poppy. Philippa Florence Jane is lovely though. I like Patrick and I'm glad to see Bertie even though I think I prefer it as a nickname. I don't like Paddy but then I don't like any nickname for Patrick.
I cannot remember the last time I saw a US BA with Polly as a fn. Pippa, as predicted, seems destined to be very popular. Poppy was popularized (sorry) by cooking star Jamie Oliver. The trend of using 2 mn's is really highlighted here, as well as the trend to nn's being used as proper fn's : Bertie and Paddy.
My favorite of the girls is Philippa Florence Jane, and of the boys, Peter Harold Taylor.
