    Matthias for a boy. I still love that name. Also Patrick. And Jareth, but that one wasn't a serious suggestion.

    For girls, there was a list longer than my arm. Pretty much every nice name bar 3 were vetoed (still in the running for the future). He even wanted to veto the middle name Zaidie, which ain't happening. And then of all the names in the world, he liked on that was OK (Tamsin) and he liked Sophie. Which isn't a bad name unless you sound like my mother's family and I am not having people torture, maul and otherwise distress my daughter's name with their awful accent. Although I would have compromised on Sophia and called her Phia, great name! But he wouldn't.

    eta - my choice of girl's names that I love!
    This included - Tyra, Amelia, Eleanor, Xanthe, Naomi, Bethan, Caitlyn, Leah, Allisa, Joanna, Imogene, Adelaide (after the Queen, not the state - we're not in Australia), Eliana, Cielle, Ellisa... the list goes on.
