Expecting dc3 in march, don't know the sex, though I think it will be a boy...
Dhs cousin is called Tad (Thaddeus) I just love this name and think it will go fab with our other dcs,, but dh won't let me use it...so I'm after names like this,, but not this?
Sounds impossible?

Thank you for all yr suggestions. I think (like a poster said up thread), I may be too hung up on liking tad and nothing seems as good.
However, I will read them all through with dh and you never know.
Thanks all.
