baby names :)

Well I feel a little silly writing this as I'm neither expecting or planning on having any babies any time soon. But coming up with baby names has always been a little guilty pleasure of mine, usually scribbled on scraps of paper & stashed away in secret so no-one accidently reads them and laughs! But my boyfriend and I were talking about it the other day so I thought I'd make a post and see what everyone thinks :)

For no good reason other than background information, our names are Eleanor Jane & John-Paul and we're both Welsh.

Girls
Tallulah (long time favourite that I never go off!)
Arabel
Arwen
Sophia
Alice
& names I used to like but am going off a little are;
Anais
Eloise
Tanith
Daphne
Ruth

Boys
Elijah (it's been a favourite of mine for about ten years but to be quite honest, I'm going off it now!)
Caleb
Adam
Noah
Ethan
Joshua
Aaron
& my boyfriend really likes the name Gideon... which I told him he could name a cat but not a baby :)
I used to love the name Achilles too although everyone would tell me I was mad to name a child that... & I guess they are most probably right!

Favourites at the moment are;
Girl: Tallulah Arabel
Boy: No idea! I can't decide whether I like Ethan, Caleb or Aaron best.

I've always heard it pronounced Ann-eye-ees, but then I would personally spell it with the dieresis: Anaïs. I actually really like most of your names, even if I wouldn't use them myself, so...congrats for picking good names!
