DC3 pending in 8 weeks...

We don't know whether we are having a DD3 or a DS1. We are pretty sure we have a girl's name or two that we like and that will be acceptable to DD1 and DD2. Boys names we are finding much harder.

So if we have 2 girls, one named the same as the spider in a book and the other one over the rainbow, what could we call DS1?

DD1 has suggested Edward.
DD2 has suggested Broccoli.

Edward is a great suggestion by your DD. Then you'll have a C, D & E!

Well you definitely need another strong name
I agree your dds suggestion for Edward fits perfectly. You could maybe have Broccoli as a middle name Grin.

Congratulations! I would like to second Broccoli, good choice DD2.

Thanks for the suggestions, will run some of them past DH, and of course DD2 - she's definitely the one to impress.

I like Edward and Arthur, but neither of them is grabbing me as being just the right one...

Is the second daughter actually called Dorothy? I initially thought Eva (Eva Cassidy sang the Somewhere Over The Rainbow, although I know many people have)

I was trying to vaguely not out myself by writing the DDs names in cryptic code... That didn't really work did it! The PPs are correct.

Freddie, Benjamin, Thomas, Peter, William and Alexander are all out for various reasons.

Arthur
Edward
George
James are all the right kind of names, but was trying to think of something a bit more unusual.
