think it's fair to say that DH and I are the least imaginative namers there are. Our first two DC are Edward James and Emilia Catherine. DS currently has 3 other boys with the same name in his form and DD is constantly being asked if it's Emilia with an 'A' or and 'E'.

So basically this time we're looking for a name which won't be constantly being spelled out and would mean there won't be four of them in a form (two I can deal with!). The only problem is we can't think of any names. So far we've loosely got together a list but no names jump out. Middle name will be Michael for a DS and Margaret for a DD. Again not exactly origional but they are family names! So what do you think? I like traditional names so nothing too trendy but at the same time can't think of any alternatives to Oliver and Sophie!

Please help!

I don't think we're sticking with 'E', although I do like Evelyn. Two 'E's was definitely an accident but I think a theme might be a bit strange.
