George
Samuel (Sam)
Thomas (Tom)
Edward (Ted or Ed)
Jacob (Jake)
Benjamin (Ben)

Lovely boys list:

Daniel
Lucas
Nathaniel
Thomas
Edward
Samuel

Less keen on the girls but Francesca shouts out to me because it follows your pattern of using last syllable for the shortened name Cesca or Cesc.

I like Jessica and like both Jess and Jecca as the short names.

Lucas and Jessica from you list for me. I think they 'fit' with your other DC.

Lucas, Jacob, Nathaniel are my favourites from your boys list - Nate is fab.

I think Jessica, Grace and Faye go nicely from your girls list. Lovely names.

I like Nathaniel, Benjamin and Samuel in that order.

For girls, I LOVE Yasmine. Francesca also nice. Rose and Grace are pretty, but much more bland.

Not keen on George or Lucas.

Chesk is not nice IMO.

All the others are lovely, just go with which ever the baby suits best.
