the letters V, W or X in them please.
Boys and girls.

Just realised that mine, DH, DSS and DS's names all have one of these letters in.

As Dh has said no to all 13 of my girls names and no to 8 out of 10 of the boys I'm scratching around trying to find some more.

Thanks

Formerly-know-as-AHLH here

"Vhairi is not an accepted spelling as far as I am aware. Never come across one wpelt in that way, though I live in Scotland, have been a teacher and kids go to a Gaelic school."

I was only sugguesting it, 'cos it sounds liek it has a V in. that's why I aksed for helpfrom someone who'd know better! And obvioulsy found out why it hadn't been suggested before. I've never seen it written down or anything. My mum had a friend called it when I was a child and I just remebered the sound.

AHLH - it's not important that they have a common letter.

Dh said no to all but 2 names I've suggested so just trying to come up with some more

thanks for all the suggestions

Vhairi is spelt Mhairi to be correct.

In gaelic, "mh" is pronounced "m" at the start of a sentence and "v" part way through, after a verb I think.

Vhairi is not an accepted spelling as far as I am aware. Never come across one wpelt in that way, though I live in Scotland, have been a teacher and kids go to a Gaelic school.

Why is it important that all the siblings have one of 3 letters common to their names? I've been thinking about this for my siblings. 3 of 4 of us have "E", but that's about all! I don't think we ever thought about it.
