Post not such an issue if one is mr and one miss to be fair - my assumption was that Sidney was a boy which I think a lot of people will do too

What on earth are you raving about Confused

I would spell Sydney as a girl and Sidney as a boy?

What is wrong with you greensjeeves- you are a bit weird following me round the site?!
It’s not buzzare - when the kids are teenagers she’ll be getting post for mr s [surname] and they’ll have no idea who it’s for. She’ll want to label her kids clothes and she’ll have to write out their full name as the initials are the same. She be forever correcting people who didn’t quite hear if it was sid or stan this time.

No, they're not too similar. The post thing is just bizarre Confused

I'm personally not keen on Stanley, but Sidney is cute imo

Not very keen on either to be fair.

For a boy or a girl.

A girl, Rainbow.

Don’t give same initial - how will you ever know which post is for who?

Rainbowsandflowers78 · 19/01/2018 02:13

Yes
Is Sidney a boy or girl?
