Nothing wrong with Edward.

I don't want to give any other suggestions unless I get a clue to your surname or middle name options..although I think you might just stick with Edward {grin]

I love Edward.. There are so many possibilities with it.. Ted is lovely. As is Eddie.

Do you have long/short surname?

Have to disagree, I really don't like Edward, there are so many small Edwards where I live and I think it sounds like dead wood, sorry.

Amelie and...

Daniel
Samuel/Sam
Charles
James
Adam
Gabriel

come to mind first.

Good luck choosing Smile

Christian

Oliver

Benedict
Harry
Matthew


I second Daniel and Gabriel too.

Edward is ok, perhaps a little dull and overused.

How about
Patrick
Quentin
Victor
Tobias

Double noms for

Amelie and Gabriel

Amelie and Benedict

My own preference would be

Amelie and Anthony
or
Amelie and Andre

i wouldn't do samuel in case you shorten the names when in a rush 'Hurry up Am and Sam' sounds like something Dr Seuss would write Wink

I like Edward.

Or how about Amelie and...

Felix
Lawrence
Clement
Henry
Oliver
Frederick
Jacob
Nicholas
Maxwell
Dylan
George
Tristan
Edwin
Joel

P.S.

but i am less keen on Tony or Ant and Anthony is a bit...blair. Coiuld you live with Antoine?

Andre is a cool name - sorry i cannot put the accent on. Most lads I've taught can then shorten it to Dre for too cool for school status.

Just a thought. French yet sayable by the english and not very common

I have an Amelie and 3 other daughters so never got to use any boys names. We would have used Kieran (This was 12 years ago!), Malachi, or Jacob Joseph (JJ). Edward is a family name on my husbands side, but again never got the chance to be used.

Hi, I know an Amelie with a little brother called Tristan too - wonder if it is the same one!

I also know an Isaac with a little sister Amelie.

Ooops, Im a little late with that suggestion [blush I didnt read teh thread first. I just think Amelie and Tristan sound lovely together.

drivingmisscrazy · 11/01/2011 14:40

I don't get this - why do sibling's names have to 'go together'? just pick a name for a boy that you like? perhaps someone can explain it to me
