I like Matthew for boy. Theodora for girl. Good luck with pregnancy, hope you're feeling well.

frutilla · 28/10/2011 01:15

Cecil for a boy, Daphne for a girl...

MrsRetchingBloodAndGuts · 28/10/2011 01:17

Christopher and Cecelia, beautiful names

MrsRetchingBloodAndGuts · 28/10/2011 01:19

Just a thought and I don't mean to be rude as you've obviously decided on the middle names but Jemima Anne sounds nicer (to me) than Anna.

spottyock · 28/10/2011 08:41

I like Edith or Violet for a girl and Matthew or Christopher for a boy. My very immature mind (I apologise now!) wouldn't go for Richard with William and Thomas.

oohlaalaa · 28/10/2011 10:17

I like all your boys names except for Harvey. Is Cecil due a comeback? My grandad was Cecil, but always known as Cece (pronounced Cess).

I like all your girls names except for Daphne and Margaret.

Matthew and Theodora are my favourites from your lists. I do prefer the middle names though. Love William & Jemima!

RefereezaWanka · 28/10/2011 17:56

Matthew and Cecilia

minipie · 28/10/2011 18:14

I would put them in this order:

  1. Matthew Thomas William

  2. Richard William Thomas

  3. Ethan Thomas William

  4. Harvey Thomas William

  5. Christopher Thomas William

  6. Cecil William Thomas

  7. Daphne Jemima Anna

  8. Edith Jemima Anna

  9. Cecilia Jemima Anna

  10. Violet Jemima Anna

  11. Theodora Jemima Anna

  12. Margaret Anna Jemima

I agree with MrsRetching that Anne would go better than Anna...

GirlWithTheMouseyHair · 29/10/2011 22:26

Ethan and Margaret (but I'd go with Maggie)

thirtysomething · 29/10/2011 22:30

Matthew or Theodora. Also like Edith and Daphne

Violet J A is a very big moutful!

Not keen on Margaret - sorry

Top three of the boys' list:

Richard William Thomas
Christopher Thomas William
Ethan Thomas William

Personally I think Anna Jemima flows better than Jemima Anna, so I'd go for

Margaret Anna Jemima
Violet Anna Jemima
Edith Anna Jemima

jasonlovesme · 31/10/2011 21:32

Matthew Thomas William
Ethan Thomas William
Christopher Thomas William

Daphne Jemima Anna
Violet Jemima Anna
Theodora Jemima Anna

I actually think you could have mn as either JA or AJ

Ohh and I love the fact your DDs are Ian and Sonny (makes a change from Lily and Al/Allie)

Matthew Thomas William
Ethan William Thomas
Harvey Thomas William
