I'm not pregnant, and I probably won't be for some time yet. However, I love names, and I have always had a slight obsession on that front.

My name is Jessica Blanche, a name which my parents chose because they felt 'Jessica' was the most un-spectacular and fitting in-est name they could find. Not that I'm bitter or anything ;-).

Anyway, my favourite name lists - what do you think?



Girls:

Eleanor
Katie
Laura
Alice
Rosie
Lauren
Margaret (nn Peggy)
Ada
Agnes
Grace
Rose
Emma
Clare
Eliza
Katriona
Vera

Boys:

Alex
Jacob
Edmund
Alfred (nn Fred)
Frederick (nn Fred)
Arthur
Max
Thomas
Richard
Ian
Edward
Oliver
Ashley
Henry
Andrew
James
