I've always liked naming things...but I never knew I would have a reason to like names so soon!

I've got a list, both boys and girls (as I do not know the sex) that I would very much appreciate comments on! Thank you.


Ruby
Stella
Liliana (though this is too close to my name)
Helena
Eleanor
Evelyn
Delia
Iris


Edward
Oliver
Rafe
Simon
August
Benjamin

Also, any combinations that sound good to you, please tell! The majority of these names have a special meaning to me so whatever you think sounds best lay it on me :)

I love Ruby, Stella, Eleanor, Evelyn, Delia, Edward, Simon, August, and Benjamin. You have great taste.

Have you ever thought about the name Delilah? Delia could be a nickname, and it's got the name 'Lilah' in there, which is sort of close to Liliana, and she could probably be called Lily as well. I've always liked it:)

I really like the combinations of Ruby, Stella, August, and Oliver as siblings. I think Ruby Helena and Stella Iris sound really cute, as do August Benjamin and Oliver Simon. I also like August Simon, Ruby Stella, Eleanor Ruby, Eleanor Stella, and Stella Evelyn.

i like basically ever name on your girl's list. i'm really unsure about stella though. i like the meaning, but it seems kind of trashy to me? idk.

out of the boys, i like rafe & august the best. benjamin is okay, but i like the nickname, ben better.

My favourite out of your girls names are Stella and Eleanor. Your boys list is similar to mine, actually, I also have Edward, Oliver and Simon on my top ten!

My new granddaughter is Ruby, so naturally I'm partial to it! ;o)

If Ruby ever has a brother, he will most likely be named Oliver! Good choices!

I rather like:

Ruby
Liliana
Eleanor
Iris

Edward
Oliver
Benjamin
Simon

Ruby Delia
Eleanor Iris

Benjamin Edward
Oliver Rafe

I would suggest as I did to someone previously - if you want a variation on Stella - try Anstella.
Just an option. *nods*

Girl names: With the exception of Delia (which I class with names like Bertha and Wilma, for reasons even I can't properly explain), I love all of these names! Ruby is my favorite, with Eleanor in a close second.

Boy names: Benjamin is my top boy's name. Very nice! Edward and Simon are on my favorites list, too, but they're all nice names.

Combos:
Delia Iris
Eleanor Stella
Evelyn Ruby
Helena Ruby
Liliana Eleanor
Ruby Liliana
Stella Evelyn

August Benjamin
Benjamin Edward
Edward Oliver
Oliver Edward
Rafe August
Simon Edward
