Any ideas on what you'd call a lttle brother or sister for Alec & Seb?

longer names or a similar syllables seem to flow better than Bob & Mary;
Benedict, Gabriel or William and Catherine or Vivienne are no goes but the style I'd like so I'd say I like classic/slightly poncey.
dh likes 'normal' less frilly names (Henry, James, Rebecca etc, he hates Benedict)!

Ooh, good names so far, will go through with him in the morning! Thanks everyone for replying

I love Clarissa.
Miranda was on the list for Alec but he was born just as the comedian was becoming v.popular, wonder if I can get away with it now without thinking of her?

He doesn't like Zachary. Should've discussed baby names long before we decided to have kids! Always causes a headache!

Fergus and Louisa?

I was going to say Henry...I also think Zachary would go very well!

For girls, maybe Matilda or Martha?

The Benedict I know got called Bendy Dick when he was a teenager. Otherwise I'd have used the name for my own ds.

I know someone with an Alexander and a Sebastian! Pretty sure she isn't you though as her younger one is only a few weeks old so another pregnancy would be a bit of a shocker!
