- My favorite combo from this list is Matilda Beatrice.
- I want to like Fraser because I love the show due South, and one of the main characters is Benton Fraser, who goes by his last name mostly. However, it's just so surnamey to me. I feel like I couldn't use it unless I married someone who had it somewhere in his family. This is kind of silly since I love Mackenzie, Tate, Harrison, and Lane.
- I don't like it either way, but I think this is the first time I've seen Fallon on a girl.
- I can never remember how to say Eilidh.
- Harry James. Like...Harry James Potter?

I rarely ever see Hector but I think I might like it. Hec is a cool nickname, too. I wonder what peoples' connotations with that would be. I guess it sounds like a nn for Hannibal Lechter.

Rafe was ruined for me when it was a "word of the day" on the radio and all these people called in furious thinking he had said the word of the day was "rape".

Any idea how to pronounce Eilidh? I'm coming up with eyelid and eelid.

Seren Christy is beautiful.

Oliver Charles
Callum Alistair
Amelia Margaret
Beatrice
Rhys
Isobel

What? Harry James? Poor kid. He'll be called Harry Potter for life!

Does anyone know how to pronounce Eilidh or Ruaridh? I like the way they look. I'm pretty sure Mhairi is either "Mye-ree" or "Mary".

I could be totally wrong, but I always thought Ruaridh was Rory. I guess that would make Eilidh I-lee? But I really have no clue. I'm waiting to see if anyone has a definitive answer too.

I gotta tell you, I got a small thrill when I saw that somebody used Rafe for their child!! Undying love for Rafe. And I see Isobel the way I love it spelled. 2 Sophie's and 1 Sophia.
2 Matilda's, 2 Grace's, 2 Eleanor's, 2 Alice's...I'm loving the old names. This list is great!

Eilidh is pronounced 'AY-lee'

Mhairi is pronounced 'MAHR-ee'

Rhuaridh is pronounced 'ROO-ree' (not ROHR-ee, as in Rory)

All are Scottish gaelic names, and the 'dh' in gaelic is always pronounced as an 'ee' sound.
