I noticed that MIL's grandchildren are alphabetical(not sure how or when I worked this out)

Me/dh have a G and H
Bil/Sil have a B and C
Step SIl/bil have a K and L

Very odd. Shan't be telling anyone as i'll look like a nutter!

All our girls have 5 letter names and are all quite traditionally Welsh.

No pattern as we're still on number 1! How about Aidan/Aiden?

well our theme was 6 letters and an O but with dd3 it became 5 letters and the O.. and I have a real thing about silent O's (2 of my dd's have them in their names) one of the names for dd3 we had was Ilona and we seriously considered spelling it Illona simply to get the 6 letters.. she didnt look like an Ilona though

All mine have 4 letter names. Was coincidence until #3.

oneblueandonepink · 27/12/2008 16:33

All of mine have latin names so guess that is the pattern for us.

Of your suggestions, my favourites are Talia and Isaac.

Good luck! x

Ours are all trisyllabic, and are early saints' names. Also we deliberately avoided both assonance, same initial, and rhyming end syllables.

Yes I see names in colour and mine have a theme, or a colour that suits the baby iyswim!

Why I couldn't stick with the name I chose, because he clashed with it

Mine have 'U' and 'A' in them at the moment

I like isaac

Well, if mine have patterns, then its that they every name they have one of their great grandparents also has.

I dislike Aimee - but like Amy.
I dislike Darcy too I am afraid.
I like the rest, especially Sadie and James.

Boys names - Liam, Matty, Archie

Accidental Dickens theme here with DDs. Other clever people noticed before me and I had to pretend I knew what they were talking about .

I love Sadie, Talia, Isaac and James.
