I LOVE Atticus Jude! How handsome. And August Clark, but I think I've expressed my opinion on this. Violet Eleanor and Penelope Iris are flawless. Magnolia Caroline sticks out some, because both names are long and for some reason I don't dig Magnolia. (Not for any real reason though, just some weird internal prejudice.) And Beau sits kind of funny with Oscar imo.

Penelope Iris is sweet and spunky. I love Atticus Jude. Beau is nice. Violet Eleanor is very pretty, and I like August.

Ooh, I adore your B/B set. Atticus and Oscar is a lovely combination, and I love Atticus Jude (Beau is just nms). Violet Eleanor is also lovely. I love August (though as Delphi_Blue said, I don't like it much with Clark). Though I'm not particularly in love with either name Magnolia Caroline sounds very beautiful. And hooray, Penelope!

Out of curiousity, would Atticus wind up with a nn? What would it be? The others I can think of some options but Atty? Cus? Tic? Or would you just try to avoid nns?

I would try to avoid nn's for Atticus. I don't particularly like any of the obvious nn options. Although it's inevitable that a name may be shortened from time to time, I think it is possible to stick to a full name and discourage nn's. Thanks for your comments, btw :)

Atticus Jude, Oscar Beau and Violet Eleanor are lovely! I love the sound of Atticus and Oscar together. I also love August, although Violet and August together are bit word-y.

Yay, August

My favourite boys name ever- love it. I'm not feeling August Clark...I'd pick a different mn myself. It just feels too abrupt.

Oscar is another favourite, and I also like Atticus and Eleanor. Great names.

Yeah, I am never settled on a middle name for August. It would probably be one of these:

August Clark
August Rhys
August Oliver
August Emmett
August Milo (although I'd like to keep Milo as a FN option!)
August Rocco
August Dashiell

I love August Milo! Also love August Emmett and August Rhys.

August Milo! Great combo. I love Milo- but there's the whole chocolate drink association in Australia, which kinda wrecks it :( Plus, I just seem to love August with an M mn- my combo is August Malachi ;)

I also think August Oliver and August Dashiell work quite well. I find Clark, and Rhys to be too abrupt, and I just can't say August Emmett or August Rocco- I love Emmett, but it just donest flow.
