So, we have a little Wilf, and another baba on the way. No idea what to call the second one... Does anyone have any suggestions for complimentary sibling names please? Thank you!

Greta was our midwife last time so that could be in with a shot, thank you!

I've not made it to bed! Really love the idea of clementine but oh worked with someone called clemmie with a very seedy reputation. he finds it hilarious to regale me with tales of her exploits and I am now off put...

Before I go to bed... Oh had a relative called emmie. Similar to clemmie? But then met a monstrous emmie at a play group... Should I find a way to brain bleach monster emmie? Or is the name not that good?

Love all the older name suggestions, thank you. Some of them I think are cute for a baby but I can't quite imagine on a 16 year old... In my head, Wilf will see ds through his teenage years as it is quite cool / surfery..... Has anyone got any ideas along those lines aswell? Ta! X

I think Nancy would be good and Edmund or Ernest for a boy.
