I love Freya Aisha as a combo!I agree Mayden is a no-no.I have a question - is Ceitidh a legit Scottish name? It looks to me like someone making Katie look Scottish but maybe that's just because I've never come across it before.

Thomas William - classic, nice name, a bit boring though
Edward Rafael (Lucia + Rosa)- that's a really nice sibset
Jonty Neal - don't like it at all
Lindsay George - Lindsay on a boy is a bit odd in my opinion but I guess it's ok
Lewis Calum - adore Lewis, not a fan of Callum
Angus Lochlan Mackenzie - I like it!
Logan Richard - ok
Ivan George (Oscar + Ramsay) - I really like the sibset
Magnus Leo - ok
Kentigern Stanley - never seen Kentigern before but I LIKE it!
Cormac Leigh (Finnegan + Darragh)- like the names and the sibset
Sonny (Daisy-Bea) - Sonny os ok but Daisy-Bea? Ew!
Mirren Rose - pretty combo, not sure what I think of Mirren though
Rosalyn Isla - nice combo
Freya Aisha (Angus) -I like the sibset
Rosie Marian (Lois Eva) - I like Marian as a middle name
Georgina Beatrix - like the combo

MirrenThere's been discussions before, but no real consensus for it's sudden rise in popularity. There's Helen Mirren yes but I can't see her surname being a major influence on the first name, and there's also a football team called St Mirren, but imo 'Bravehearts' sweetheart Murron is a more likely influence for it's use as a girls first name. It also fits in with a general trend among the 'professional' classes I'll call them, for overtly Scottish names - hence all the Finlays, Anguses, Ceitidh's etc. It really should be added to the database in the next update, it's so popular here.

InterestingIt seems such a random last name and then to be so popular for girls without a celebrity/TV push.

It's not actually a last name at all, Helen Mirren's real surname is Mironov!

I know:-) And I actually like her 'real' name better, Ilyena Vasilievna Mironov sounds very regal.
