Just that really. Don't know gender yet, not really too keen on another 'J' name though as I get their names mixed up as it is! Many thanks.

I did wonder about them feeling left out of the J thing if we didn't go with a J name, but wasn't sure if it was too much! Really like George, has a J sound without the spelling.
Really stuck with girls but thank-you for suggestions. Hopefully finding out the sex soon so will know whether I need to worry about that or not!

I'd go with the J theme now you've started it and go with Jenson or Jamie

No not Jewish, but traditional names do tend to have a religious link somewhere!! Thanks all, really helpful suggestions.

Benjamin and Reuben are the obvious ones to complete your Old Testament family!
