Do you think Eli and Polly make a nice sibling set? Eli is my ds btw, not sure if this one is a boy or girl yet!

It sounds like you read the guardian and only drink decent coffee, preferably served by the quaint little out of the way coffee shop on the corner of your "village". Which may of course be what you are aiming for :) I think they are lovely names

I thought so but wanted to check. It goes nicely with Polly by the way.

And I think Eli and Polly go well together, although Polly is a bit cutesy for my liking, if used as a full name. Can it be short for anything?

I was thinking Polly Clementine would be cute!
