DS3 due in 6 weeks. Got two boys, James Christian and Findlay Neil. Am Scottish and like scottish names. We have a fairly bland surname that goes with anything really.

Anyway, the name for DS3 is Logan Gabriel.

Thoughts. Please tell me it's not chavvy!!! PLEASE.

BTW if it's a girl, am going for Kitty (but christened Catriona)Louisa Justine.

Wolverine I think it's pretty cool, goes well with your other two and nicely Scottish.

Love your choice for a girl as well!

Logan is nice. I like Catriona as well, would it be pronounced Cat-rio-na, or catrina? I was at school with a girl with that name and she always insited it was catrina!

Definitely Cat-rio-na. I know it's supposed to be Catrina but like the way catriona sounds.

Honestly? I think it is a bit. It's also a surname.

How about Angus?

I prefer it the other way around Gabriel Logan...
Kitty is nice but not keen on Catriona

hmmm Logan is always Wolverine in my sad nerdy brain, and Logan is a deeply flawed and tragic X-man, although the power to regenerate is pretty cool.

bad side burns though.

Not sure if your ds3 being named after a classic sci-fi character is a problem for you

Am sad. Loooove Hugh Jackman and so always think Hugh, not Wolverine..Agree about the side burns but baby will have to wait a while for those lol!

I like Logan. It reminds me of that science fiction book Logan's Run.

Logan's awful - I'm afraid I can's stand surnames as first names
how about Calum or Douglas?
Gabriel's great

Gabriel is utterly lovely; don't like Logan.

Logan is lovely, and goes with your other DSs names.

LÃ’VE your choice of girls name but then I am slightly biased We pronounce it Cat-ri-ona mainly because we liked the way it sounds but also because we live abroad and noone would be able to pronounce it the "proper Scottish way" (as we were told by an old biddy in my mum's church)

I like Logan and Gabriel, but am not sure that they go together terribly well.
