Well we wanted Zimbabwean names that weren't in the family........exH's family is huge so that narrowed it down an awful lot. So they're all fairly common names out there, and pretty unusal here (apart from the Tafara living 2 minutes walk away from us now Wink)

Thanks Mamo they are lovely. I have always lived in very culturally diverse areas and I have never heard them Smile

So we are doing middle names are we?

in no particular order

Peter, Jordon, Coltrane, Billy, William, Ashton, Cassius, Hendrix, Jake, Levi-Lee, Asa, Lennon, Marley.

their middle names are all after senior ladies in our families they didn't get the chance to meet so quite traditional.

Jasper David and Edward Alexander.

I'm dreaming about a Dominic or a Dougie next.

I have no clue about girls names - love Flora though, Bonsoir
