Arabella- pretty but nms
Emmeline- nns and I am not a fan of emmie as a nn
Slater- also think of sbtb plus I knew a slater growing up
Conor- nice but wouldn't use it
Lucien- too fancy for me to use!

Arabella- NMS
Emmeline- pretty. I would consider it for a middle, but I think it would be tricky for people to spell and pronounce. I'm sure many would say it like -line instead of -leen.
Slater- No no no. I totally think of Saved By the Bell. Even without that association I don't think it is a nice sound.
Conor- I really like this name. Wish it worked with our last name. I would probably spell it Connor.
Lucien- NMS
To make you feel my love.
Arabella/emmeline - Pretty, but NMS.
All the boy names are NMS.
Arabella - beautiful name, but again has the problematic "-a" ending with our last name (not to mention with all the Twihards out there I'd HATE for my kid to end up being called Bella ::gag::)
Emmeline - Another beautiful name, but I'd prefer just Emme (which DH isn't really a fan of)
Slater - Even without the SBtB reference, this would be a no. Not a fan of "occupational" first names
Conor - DH's nephew is named Connor, so nope.
Lucien - This just sounds pretentious.
B/w 1/8: betas 17,345, progesterone 25.6
Arabella and Emmeline are not my style.
I like Connor, but not Conor. Lucien and Slater are no for me.
