We have a DS already, Samuel.

I think we've narrowed down his baby brother to Oscar or Finley - which do you prefer and please don't say neither!

How funny this is for me. DS1 was going to be called Oscar, but he ended up being born on the day the Oscars are announced, so...he was named Finlay!

Oscar better than Finley

But I think Finley looks better spelt Finlay

I have a Finlay, with an A; tis getting very popular.

Oh I love both! I love love love Finley, but think I would choose Oscar as it's less popular.

Finley- because Finn is also nice as a shortened name.

Oscar - love it. Would have used it for DC3 if she's been a boy.

Neither are as classic and lovely as Samuel, sorry.
