I named my daughter Vivienne. We call her Vivi and she is vivacious and full of life. She was 6 years in the making with IVF so the meaning of “life” really was everything to us!
For anyone with concerns like Louise that you won't like a name over time, I suggest not worrying about that! Number one when you give a child a name, that name sort of stops being a nebulas concept and instead becomes representative of that person. Over time they're name becomes theirs and you won't think of it as 'what I named my child' and will instead go 'my child's name'. Number two, any issues and names can be changed! It's pretty common now to change your name officially, unofficially, doesn't matter! Names are as important as we make them and the individual eventually gets control over that so no issue! I personally changed my name several times over my life and it's never distressed me!
I completely agree! My sister and I have both changed our nicknames from the ones our parents initially picked for us, and it felt so freeing to be able to say "no, this is my name now". I've also known people who choose to go by their middle names instead of their first, etc.
"Darcy means dark and she has a slightly dark sense of humor" Me: *has flashbacks to Darcy's 10th birthday where she described the world rotting away* Yeah makes sense
Filling in the rest of the Penelope story. Our Sadie was going to be named Penelope as well. We also called my bump Penelope/Penny/Poppy. Ultimately it didn’t feel right for our little girl either. It kinda felt like I was forcing it but it just wasn’t right, and we went with Sadie June. There was a tiny part of me that mourned the loss of that whimsical story book little Penelope but I was happy to pass it on to Louise instead. When she decided to go with Pearl (which I loooove so much), It made me feel oddly like we had made the right choice with Sadie as well. I also love that we both have these vivacious toddlers with little old lady names. 🥰
Louise that green top looks SO gorgeous on you, it really brings out the colour of your eyes! I don't remember seeing you wear green before but it is definitely "your colour" 💚
Obviously I’m obsessed with this video! 😍 I can see you with a Percy Pentland! I’ve always loved that name & love it with your surname. Vivienne is stunning too -
I haven’t had any children yet, but as a teacher I am already genuinely finding it hard to make a list of names. My partner is also a teacher so any name is related to one of the hundreds of children we’ve once taught 😂
I'm a teacher too and we found it hard to pick names as I couldn't have some names as they were linked to students I had. We found out at 20 weeks what we were having so we only had to pick one gender which made it easier.
Violetta reminds me of my beloved childhood favourite ice cream Viennetta 😍 the world started to go to shit when everyone stopped serving that at parties
@@JKMA818 I have always thought about naming a baby girl Heaven-Leigh...I thought it was absolutely unique and beautiful!!! It's cool to see someone else who thought the same!! :)
Atlas too was a greek titan and he was condemned to hold up the sky for eternity. he was later turned into stone forming the atlas mountains of north africa
I’ve always wanted to name my baby girl something Irish as it’s where I’m from, and I’ve always been in love with the name Cora - also Titanic is my favourite film and in Titanic, that’s the little girl Jack Dawson dances with and says ‘you’re still my best girl Cora’ before dancing with Rose 😊 for a boy I love Levi and Leo!
My ancestors that were sisters had beautiful unique names Florence Ollie, Susie Belle, Della Evelyn, Rebecca Arnetta. Very pretty. :) I really liked your list for girls a lot. I've always loved gemstone names too, like Opal. I like Rosalie a lot as well.
I’ve just named my 1 month old “Maisie Joy” to go with her brother “Llewyn Mathew” ... both where nameless for days! SO incredibly hard to name a human!! X
It’s so cool to hear people actually appreciate the name Florence. As someone with that name I love hearing people talk about it Cus it’s not very common!
My dogs name is Vivienne and it suits her so much, she’s not old but her mannerisms are that of a distinguished lady dog (if that makes sense?). She’s also a rescue dog after being used for breeding so although her circumstances were horrible I like to think that she gave life, and now she gets her life. She’s also beautiful and so sweet 🐾 Thank you for telling me what her name means ❤️
Not with a dog, but my late kittycat acted like a little lady when we first adopted her! She used to sit like a lady and had the prettiest looks! We even called her Lady though and I'd never call a baby that...I do have a real love for L names though!
In terms of changing your mind over time, I don't think you would ever dislike the name you ended up choosing because it's attached to your child. So even if you wouldn't choose it anymore, you're still associating it with someone you love!
My great-grandpa's middle name was Knight. I always thought that was really cool. He was born in the 1890s, and they were pretty creative and trendy with names back then. His sister-in-law was named Zulieme, which I do not like but can appreciate its uniqueness.
I really like Percy Pentland. Reminds of Sir Pervival Blakeney from the Scarlet Pimpernel ( dashing, heroic). Atlas Pentland is so metaphorical and adventurous sounding. Walt Pentland is lovely too. Makes me think of a tall, kindly Scottish writer that smells like wool and pine needles. Love Florence (Florrie, Flossie, cute!), Quinn Pentland.
My nephew's name is Quinn and I just think it's such a flattering, easy, dignified name for both boys and girls. I love the way it sounds. One of my niece's is called Lacey and I just think it suits her so much. Feminine, Rosey and again really easy and dignified. Clearly my family has very similar tastes in names as Louise. I love it
My other niece is named Olive which I think is a very cute old english sort of name. We've been calling her Oli as a nickname which I think is really lovely name for a girl.
ha I'm sure you couldn't start hating a name you'd given your child, you'd have all the positive associations with the child! I have cats called Apollo and Artemis 💛
I honestly feel like lots of children are very accepting of other peoples names especially in primary school, they don’t really question it until a lot later I think.
"Wanky posh" hilarious!! 😂😂 I like it, along with Aspen and Jett. Love love love Florence, also like Lyla, Opal, Lavender. Think I like Quinn for a boy rather than a girl. I have Harrison (with family middle names- Andrew David) and Lottie Primrose. We know a Jett and a Lacey. My mum is also called Jane. Xxx
I love Vivienne & Florence so much! They're both on my potential kids list. Florence Ada was my great grandmas name and I just adore it. I also really like Opal. I'm a big fan of gem names as well, Ruby being my ultimate favorite girl name.
These videos are 100% part of my weekly routine, there is nothing quite like preparing for the week ahead with Louise while getting ready on a Sunday morning 🥰
Lavender is so beautiful - reminds me of the little girl that Matilda meets in school! Funny how names stick with you... As soon as I heard Vivienne, I thought "oh no" because I think of the sneaky posh woman engaged to Warner in Legally Blonde hahaha! But as a name by itself, it is lovely x
I loved a lot of your choices! I think we have quite similar taste in names, though I have a few more unusual girl names that I really like. As a teacher I find it very hard finding names I've not already encountered! I don't want children, but picking names for pets is super fun. If I ever get a female pet, maybe a dog, I think Nova is such a cool name.
My daughter is called Lilia, she’s nearly 13 and I still love it. Others we considered were Ophelia (decided it was too tragic,still love it though). I really love the names Logan and Aaron for boys x
Wankyposh is now going into my daily vocabulary 😂😂 My dog was called Aspen so good choice! He had such a cheeky naughty character that his nickname was Asbo Asp 😁 I really love Atlas too - that's the name Shay Mitchell gave her daughter and that was the first time I'd ever heard of it. Percy though......🙃😂😂
I am obsessed with the name Penelope. I don’t even know why, I just love it! I would never have thought of the name Knight but I actually think it’s really cute. The majority of the names you gave, I really love💕
Rosalie is my favourite, not planning on having children anytime soon but ill be lying if I said I haven't made a list of baby names in my notes haha!! Opal I had already written down, yay. Thank you for the beautiful ideas xx
A baby name writer? This sounds like an amazing job. I can imagine it's a great job considering some of the very 'interesting' names that celebrities use.
I find baby names so fun! It's so interesting to see what people come up with and why. I must say, I'm partial to your girl names more than your boy names, as I prefer names more traditional. Vivienne is my favorite from your list, though I knew a little Rosie who was so sweet she really elevated the name in my mind. In terms of Nature/Color/Space names like you seem to enjoy I like Female: Celeste, Iris, Flora, Ruby, Sienna Male: Leo, Russell Unisex: Rowan, Sage. I also enjoy Felix, in that is means happy/lucky. Such a great meaning!
My names Darcy and my mum was always asked if she fancied Mr Darcy, and now I always get asked ‘as in Darcy bussel?’ But my mum chose the name 10 years before she had me from a Virginia andrews book, but everyone links it to those!
I love Opal & Percy so much ❤️ I just think of Enid Blyton books when I think of the name Percy which is absolutely wonderful because I adored Enid Blyton books!
I love so many old-timey names; Emilia, Luna, Sophia, Florence, Alicia, Aurora, Aurelia, Persephone, Ophelia etc but I will not share my ultimate favourite name on the internet because I feel like that is bad luck
I love the names Quentin and Florence and I tend to like more unusual names. I never liked my name and it's been shortened to Cindy throughout my life, but at nearly 50 I'm finally growing into it! Helped somewhat by hearing about Jacinda Ardern. I think some names age better than others but I think once you call your child a name it stops being just a name and becomes the person.
For me, when you said Cosmo Pentland.. all I could think was Cosmopolitan (as in the cocktail), and depending on how you pronounce it Violetta reminder me of Vienetta, which I'm sure is such a retro British niche. Whole video makes such a good point though that names are unique and important to you, but everyone has their own taste and children grow into and become their names so people will see them for who they are no matter what :) Have a great week Louise
Aloha! Let me know your favourite baby names! You might even inspire someone to name their baby! xxxx
Excited to see what you suggest! Xx
Spencer for a boy and Rose for a girl
Love poppy for a girl
Violet, Poppy or Myfanwy for a girl
Angelique, Victor, Teddy, Omaya, Arabella
I named my daughter Vivienne.
We call her Vivi and she is vivacious and full of life. She was 6 years in the making with IVF so the meaning of “life” really was everything to us!
Aww if my second was a girl I was going to call her vivi! Such a cute name!
@@nvonedge no it`s not i`m using Vivienne because it`s mine
Only og fans will know about Darcy nearly being called Florence!
God damn it David Cameron
Silly David
Love both names!

I love that you filled this bit in
i adopted a cat called Sadie in 2009, forever upset that i won't be able to name my own child Sadie haha it's such a gorgeous name.
Such gorgeous names y’all chose!
My girl is Clara Jane I love older names.
mariethatsme nope i`m using Penelope back off you`re not going to have it
Love your green top in this video Louise. The neckline looks beautiful on you. You really show us curvy gals how to be stylish!💖
Louise that green top looks SO gorgeous on you, it really brings out the colour of your eyes! I don't remember seeing you wear green before but it is definitely "your colour" 💚
Obviously I’m obsessed with this video! 😍 I can see you with a Percy Pentland! I’ve always loved that name & love it with your surname. Vivienne is stunning too -
Hello there 😊🥰
you know when you meet someone with a name you love but they're an awful person and you're just like whyyyy are you ruining this name for me 😭😂
This is the life of a teacher 😂
All. The. Time.
Or when you see someone you hated in school has named their kid a name you like, then you're just "well, I cant use that now" 😂
I loved the name Iris so much but then worked with a woman called Iris who was awful
This has happened to me over the last couple of weeks
Pastel Days ahh maybe lovely iris from the film "the holiday" can make up for it 😂
Imagine meeting Apollo in a bar and he chats you up by telling you his name means ‘the destroyer’
Ahahahaha xxx
Love that name. X
I have an Apollo ♥️
@@Louisepentland in greek mythology apollo is also the god of sun and light. He is also known to be the archery, music, poetry among other things
The only thing I could think of when you said Percy was Zoe’s guinea pig😂 Pippin and Percy😂 what a throwback
“I could see it in comic sans” had me howling
Hahahaha Cosmo in comic sans, I totally get it 😂😂
I haven’t had any children yet, but as a teacher I am already genuinely finding it hard to make a list of names. My partner is also a teacher so any name is related to one of the hundreds of children we’ve once taught 😂
I don’t have children either but I am in the same position! We are both teachers!
I’m a teacher too, not near the stage of having kids yet but there are already so many names that I just won’t be using 🙈😂
I'm a teacher too and we found it hard to pick names as I couldn't have some names as they were linked to students I had. We found out at 20 weeks what we were having so we only had to pick one gender which made it easier.
lol i've heard this is a common struggle with teachers.
Oh my gosh YES 😂 my students definitely influence how I feel about names
Showing my age here, but Cosmo makes me think of Cosmo and Wanda from Fairly Odd Parents haha and thusly I’m not mad at it!
DASH was also the name of the Kardashian sisters clothing stores in the US.
Is also the middle name of Kourtney's son. 😊
@@averagejoereads7271 and im pretty sure its Mason's middle name. I believed they named him Mason Dash Disick.
@@sarahparker9272 ohh I see, that would make sense
Dash also means to run fast, or to look good 'dashing' people use it as a word too!
@@aurora6920 That's why they used it for the son in the Incredibles who can run very fast !
i love that you named them both jane for their middle name omg it's genius & sweet
Cosmo reminds me of the fairy odd parents! 😊
Violetta reminds me of my beloved childhood favourite ice cream Viennetta 😍 the world started to go to shit when everyone stopped serving that at parties
Couldn’t agree more
That’s what I thought!
Omg I remember Viennetta. Violetta sounds like a southern belle to me. Fanning herself on the veranda complaining about the vapors.
@@JKMA818 I have always thought about naming a baby girl Heaven-Leigh...I thought it was absolutely unique and beautiful!!! It's cool to see someone else who thought the same!! :)
Apollo is a great name. He was the Greek god of poetry, singing, archery, medicine and prophesy. Not a destroyer at all.
he's also the god of plague ! so there are destructive connotations with him !!
@@Keira-ve6re ooh I didn't know that one.
Atlas too was a greek titan and he was condemned to hold up the sky for eternity. he was later turned into stone forming the atlas mountains of north africa
I’m probably the only person who’s meh about Apollo because my name being Daphne so if you go into the myth of Apollo and Daphne it makes sense 😂
Robyn has always been a favourite. Good for a girl or boy 😊 xx
I’ve always wanted to name my baby girl something Irish as it’s where I’m from, and I’ve always been in love with the name Cora - also Titanic is my favourite film and in Titanic, that’s the little girl Jack Dawson dances with and says ‘you’re still my best girl Cora’ before dancing with Rose 😊 for a boy I love Levi and Leo!
Love Walt and old names love Arthur..
Florence is lovely
Arthur is such a good one.
I struggle to think of boys names but Arthur is on my list or though someone I know has just had a baby Arthur...
Arthur is the name of my grandfather who passed away a few years ago and I’d love to use it as a middle name if I ever have a little boy
My ancestors that were sisters had beautiful unique names Florence Ollie, Susie Belle, Della Evelyn, Rebecca Arnetta. Very pretty. :) I really liked your list for girls a lot. I've always loved gemstone names too, like Opal. I like Rosalie a lot as well.
I’ve just named my 1 month old “Maisie Joy” to go with her brother “Llewyn Mathew” ... both where nameless for days! SO incredibly hard to name a human!! X
You chose gorgeous names in the end 😍
Maisie is so sweet!
My cousin took a week to name her first son, around 9 days for her second son, and well over 2 weeks for her last son 😂😂😂
If I was choosing a girls name today it would be Maisie
It’s so cool to hear people actually appreciate the name Florence. As someone with that name I love hearing people talk about it Cus it’s not very common!
Yes I agree! People always tell me it’s a grandma name so I’m glad it’s getting the appreciation now haha
I do love the symmetry of Percy and Darcy.
Apollo is such a lovely sounding name too
My dogs name is Vivienne and it suits her so much, she’s not old but her mannerisms are that of a distinguished lady dog (if that makes sense?). She’s also a rescue dog after being used for breeding so although her circumstances were horrible I like to think that she gave life, and now she gets her life.

All the names sound so nice with Louise’s accent!
We had Pearl, Walt and Percy (and Iris) on our list because they are the names of my husband's grandparents.
Just wanted to say you look absolutely stunning in this video. The makeup, the outfit, the hair, the jewelry. 🙌👏🤩✨💖
Yay I’m pregnant with a baby girl and struggling for names! This is perfect I can’t wait to watch! Xx
I really like Percy Pentland. Reminds of Sir Pervival Blakeney from the Scarlet Pimpernel ( dashing, heroic). Atlas Pentland is so metaphorical and adventurous sounding. Walt Pentland is lovely too. Makes me think of a tall, kindly Scottish writer that smells like wool and pine needles. Love Florence (Florrie, Flossie, cute!), Quinn Pentland.
Remind some of Percy pig from marks and Spencer’s 😂😂😂
So glad you see that names are forever! sometimes the 'cute' names just don't work as an adult!
My nephew's name is Quinn and I just think it's such a flattering, easy, dignified name for both boys and girls. I love the way it sounds.
One of my niece's is called Lacey and I just think it suits her so much. Feminine, Rosey and again really easy and dignified. Clearly my family has very similar tastes in names as Louise. I love it
My other niece is named Olive which I think is a very cute old english sort of name. We've been calling her Oli as a nickname which I think is really lovely name for a girl.
THESE NAMES ARE ALL SO LOVELY
i'm with you for Percy!! on top of my list xx
Loves the name Cosmo and Dash for a little boy , so cute. And I love Penelope ,Quinn and Lavender for baby girls x
Your outfit and makeup are so flattering on you! That green is your color
louise looks gorgeous!!
I'm pregnant at the minute and Percy is my number 1 boys name! So shocked to hear you mention it as I've never heard anyone else talk about it! 💛
Ah congrats Percy is a great one!!
I’ve got a 9 week old we have called Perseus who inevitably will be called Percy
ha I'm sure you couldn't start hating a name you'd given your child, you'd have all the positive associations with the child! I have cats called Apollo and Artemis 💛
also fully on board with not wanting to name a baby anything associated with that political party!
Oooh I love Artemis.
I honestly feel like lots of children are very accepting of other peoples names especially in primary school, they don’t really question it until a lot later I think.
You look absolutely fab in the video! The green gorgeous shirt, the white cardigan, soft hair .. couldn’t stop staring!! Gorgeous xx
What Darcy said in her birthday vlog about the world ending made me laugh so much 😅
Dry/dark humour is meant to be a sign of intelligence 🥰
Girllll that sage green cami and the white sweater 🤌💋💋
That color of green looks perfect on you! I have never seen an outfit of yours that hasn't worked.
New Louise video is the best way to start a Sunday morning! Thank you for always being the human equivalent of sunshine 🖤✨
Lavender is utterly gorgeous! 💜💜💜
Also love Atlas! Lavender and Violetta so lovely.
These are such beautiful names! Can’t go wrong with a strong name for a baby but you definitely made the right choice of names for your too!
Omgggg Marie is vlogging again?? Been following on insta but obviously missed this news! Amazing. Am obsessed with your name lists Louise!
"Wanky posh" hilarious!! 😂😂 I like it, along with Aspen and Jett. Love love love Florence, also like Lyla, Opal, Lavender. Think I like Quinn for a boy rather than a girl. I have Harrison (with family middle names- Andrew David) and Lottie Primrose. We know a Jett and a Lacey.
My mum is also called Jane. Xxx
I love the name Quinn for a boy, I also love Greyson 💘
My brother’s name is Harrison. It’s such a good name
Thank you. I think it's a good strong name.
Lovely video (as always), Louise! When you announced Pearl’s name I absolutely ADORED it, so beautiful and fitting! Xx
Looking gorgeous Louise! V necks look fab on you xx
Florence is on my list! Flossie has always been such a lovely nickname to me.
That’s so cute! I’ve never heard of Flossie as a nickname. I always heard Flo or Florrie for Florence or even Flora
I love Vivienne & Florence so much! They're both on my potential kids list. Florence Ada was my great grandmas name and I just adore it. I also really like Opal. I'm a big fan of gem names as well, Ruby being my ultimate favorite girl name.

My daughter is called Lilia, she’s nearly 13 and I still love it. Others we considered were Ophelia (decided it was too tragic,still love it though). I really love the names Logan and Aaron for boys x
That green top you're wearing is gorgeous!
I really like Jett! When you said Aspen all I could think of was the tree species!
I love most of these! Especially the space themed! All strong contenders for my next baby!
Wankyposh is now going into my daily vocabulary 😂😂 My dog was called Aspen so good choice! He had such a cheeky naughty character that his nickname was Asbo Asp 😁 I really love Atlas too - that's the name Shay Mitchell gave her daughter and that was the first time I'd ever heard of it.

Asbo asp made me lol 😂
You're glowing louise! You look lovely! You're childrens names are perfect, I think! They suit them very well.
Love listening to your thoughts on names, always been my favourite videos of yours
Time to cozy up and watch, I'm so looking forward to it xx
These are my favourite videos! Love all the names! Happy Sunday x

louise you look so genuinely lovely in this, you’re glowing:) x
Love Knight for a boy. You’re right about Knight Pentland.
As for girls...Rosalie I love! Could call her Rosie or Rosa or Lee. So cute!!

I love most of them. I really like your oldest child’s name. Very cute!
My mother REALLY wanted to name me Clotilde and I am very happy she settled on Sadie instead 😂
Clotilde is my great grandmothers name 😂😂😂
I love so many old-timey names; Emilia, Luna, Sophia, Florence, Alicia, Aurora, Aurelia, Persephone, Ophelia etc but I will not share my ultimate favourite name on the internet because I feel like that is bad luck
Aurelia is definitely in my top 3 names! Soooo beautiful!!
I love the name Lavender. Lavie for short. For a while I kept seeing that name in random places and kept loving it more and more.
I love Percy and Knight!! You had great boy names I haven’t heard a lot! Vivienne is beautiful and I’ve adored the name Lyla for a long time
Loooove chatty videos like this! Thank you Luise!
Love love love Atlas!! 😍 even for a girl I love it. Shah Mitchell named her little girl Atlas a year or two ago and ever since, I’ve been hooked.
I don’t have children but my cat is named Atlas and I love it for him. Suits him very well.
Love Atlas. X
I've been watching you for years and I recently discovered SJ - this video is such a treat!!
Love your hair in this!! X
