    I personally dont like to use super common names, but having said that if there was a name I really loved I would use it anyway!

    I think Henry is a fabulous name!

    Some other suggestions:
    Antoinette
    Elisabeth
    Sophia
    Abigail
    Chanel
    Renee
    Luciella

    Charlton
    Spencer
    Lucas
    Micah
    Nathaniel
    Jonathan

    There's nothing wrong with having a popular name if you love it. Charlotte is a lovely name, and Henry is great too.
    I wouldn't have them cause we like names that you don't hear alot, but if our chosen names did suddenly become popluar we would still use them, cause we love them and have come to see our baby with these names whether it be a boy or a girl.
    As for having more names to chose from, if your indecisive this may be worse for you to have more options. You have 2 names that you both like, so don't feel that you need to have a list of names just for the sake of having more then one to choose from.

    Thankyou so much to everyone for your responses....they have been very helpful!

    Ali - DH loves that your neice and nephew are named Henry & Charlotte!
    KT I think you might be right re having too many choices when it comes to my indecisivness!
    Shar - If it's a girl and we call her Charlotte, we were going to use 'Charlie' day to day already!

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions, some of them are no's for various reasons (close friends names, nieces names etc) but it's all good food for thought!

    Hopefully I will stop over thinking this and start obsessing about something else!! LOL!

    I love both your choices.

    Henry is often "shortened" to Harry - even though they are the same length (so I don't really understand it) - not many people know that Prince Harry's real name is Henry.

    Henry can also be shortened to Hank...
