Inspired by an earlier post.

If you were to have a kid today what would you name would you use? Give a name for if the child was a boy and a name for if the child was a girl. :)

My answer is in the comments.

Edmund Bruno & Iris Amparo
(I like how Edmon would be pronounced better in Spain, but Edmon Bruno looks so weird to me)

Back when I actually thought I might get around to having a third child, I thought I would name a girl Isabella. Of course in the 10 years since I thought that, it's exploded in popularity to the point that I wouldn't consider it. It's like Jennifer was in the 70s and 80s, just overused.

I always like uncommon names, but ones that don't sound weird or strange to the ear. Something that sounds "normal" but isn't overused.

For a boy, probably Nigel. I've always loved that name and you don't hear it much in my area, so that's a plus. But it's also a name that's been around a long time so it doesn't sound bizarre. Not sure for a middle name.

I can't even think what I'd call a girl since I used my girl names already and as I mentioned, Isabella is just way too overused these days.

I love Phoebe! You almost never hear it, and yet it's not bizarre sounding. Good choice :D

Lucas or Juliana. Both names that bf and I both agree on.

Lucas's middle name would either be Matthew, after his father, or Campbell, father's middle name (and a surname that he is carrying on from ancestors).

Juliana's I've thought long and hard about - probably Kate, since between bf's immediate family and mine we have a Catherine, a Kathryn nn Katie (which is all she goes by) and a Caitlin.

Lucas would also be the name my mom would've given Katie had she been a boy, but that's coincidence. :)

Michael John Terence for a boy and Lorna Wynne Catherine (Michael and Lorna have been my favourite names forever and Terence, John and Wynne are family names).
