So due to me being Russian, we want names that work in both Russian and English.
Last time we waited until 20 week scan to know the sex but I want a list this time before so I am more prepared:

For a boy we have:
Gregory (2nd choice last time)

And thats it!

For girl i like:
Alyssa
Mila (pronounced Mee-la)
Evelyn(a) - can be shortened couple of ways

What do you think?

My son's name is Anton btw



Tapatalking so cant see signatures
 
I really like them., Anton and Gregory sound lovely together. Beautiful girls names too but my favourite is Evelyn, it sounds so pretty xxx
 
I love Mila soooo pretty Xx

Sent from my shit hot phone! Fo shizzle home girls.
 
I love mila but I think Evelyn sounds lovely will your LOs name.
 
I think Evelyn will go better with last name which is Peters.
But then girls change last names sometimes

I love Gregory , how about Andre, I knew Slovakian brothers that were called Anton and Andre, and they went well together

I love Gregory too :)

I absolutely love the name Evelyn, it would be top of my girls names if it wasn't for a relative getting there first. I might just use it anyway though I love it that much.

Oh, just asked hubby and he pulled a face :roll: started pronouncing it Ev-ee-lyn instead of eve-lyn... Maybe I'm wrong though, dunno lol

Mila = Myla to me so might not translate so well.

I really like the name Elena, I think that's quite a Russian name that translates xx
 
I love Mila, not so keen on Gregory though sorry.

I would call a boy Dec! Anton Dec! no? ok... thought not lol :D x

I also like David and Mark which do exist in Russian language but my FIL is David and DH's uncle is Mark

I love Gregory and Evelyn. Evelyn is one of my top girls names and about the only one me and OH can agree on...not that I'm preggers though! I pronounce it ev-e-lyn, not eve-lyn. I also love Abigail. I prefer Melissa to Alyssa. Do you like Anna? That seems quite universal for English/Russian.
 
Melissa unfortunately isnt a Russian name at all.
Anna is quite a common name so is Elena so trying to steer clear of those. I am picky!
 
Saskia, is that Russian? I love Evelyn but I can't convince OH.

Nope, not sure of the origin actually, might have to.google :)
I.have 20 week scan on the 30th of November so might not need to, but we will see (hoping baby plays ball)

We found out LO's gender but still can't agree, men!! Xx
 
Hey hun, I looked after 3 little russian boys at nursery years ago called Mark (which you've said is out), Ian & Michael but they called Michael 'Misha'. It really suited him too!

Can't help for a girl though ... sorry x
