Just so you know . In Scotland Jakey means : A homeless person or tramp, especially one who habitually drinks large quantities of cheap, strong alcohol.

Wilfred (means bringer of peace, I haven't had much for the last 25 years!! Wink.)
If ds2 hadn't been W he would have been Thaddeus. Having since seen Mrs Thaddeus Quickly in Nanny McPhee I'm glad we stuck with W... 😁 😁 😁

I love Leo but my husband doesn’t. I should leave him before the baby is born Grin

Fascinating. Lovely names. I'd say about 80% Hebrew in origin. There may still be anti semitism around but if so it doesn't affect our Judaeo Christian traditions.
