    I have an Elowen which you helped me name and currently pregnant with her little brother… I have no idea on boy names. I am finding that I am quite picky. I often find myself drawn towards nature names but they have to be uncommon…. Not River which has become too common now. I do like Asher but not 100% sold on it as it has become very popular too. Also need a middle name for our baby boy.

    So it's really funny but here in the states (at least where I live) while we do call the herb Bayz-il, people still say Baz-il when it's a name? I've loved that name for years because of a song by the band Cap'n Jazz called Basil's Kite. I would love to see it gain traction over here and I'm happy to hear it's slowly rising again in the UK. So many gorgeous suggestions! Playing along, here's some first names for those tricky adventurous middles: Bronwen Pixie Eluned Pixie Seren Pixie Araminta Dusty Sybil Dusty Tabitha Dusty Calanthe Coco Lorelei Coco Odette Coco

    Eeep loved this, SJ! My nephew is Felix and I loved his parents reasoning for using it. Partially because of the fortuitous name meaning, but also because there’s a spell in Harry Potter with “felix” in it and it relates to light. He was born blonde, so he was their ray of golden light and they (his parents) feel lucky to have him ❤

    I’m not choosing a baby name, but one for myself. My current name is one I picked as a trans person. I changed it legally in 2021. I have a double-barrelled Flynn-Matthew middle name is Elliott. I love my name but nobody uses “Matthew” and I’m disheartened correcting everyone who just calls me Flynn. So I’d like to take it off. I’d like to replace my middle name as I just want something a bit more unique. My last name is Henry so I’d like something longer than Flynn, but without an “E”-sounding end. I love Summer as male name. I also love Sasha and Phoenix. Any ideas welcome. 😭

    Lucien (M) or Lucia, Lucianna (F) for their meaning, light. North (GN), if you’re brave. Rosanna (F) and Alba (F) both share Aurora’s meaning, Dawn (F) - also a lovely name! I thought of Iris (F), since that’s the goddess of the rainbow and they have that similar vibe. Maybe a Scandi name would catch your fancy since that’s where viewing the Aurora is so iconic.
