Can anyone decipher this handwriting for me?

We moved house just under a year ago. We are on nodding terms with the next door neighbours, but have never exchanged names. Now they've sent us a Christmas card with the names on, which should be great, as I won't have to ask them, except I can't read the handwriting! Any ideas? I've cut off the man's name as I can read that, and I can see the last one is Emily, but the other three are a mystery. If it helps, the children are girl, boy, girl.

Aimee, Liam & Emily. Still unsure on the first one

myrtleWilson · 10/12/2019 08:26

Aimee, Liam and EMily?

Si1ver · 10/12/2019 08:26

The last three are Aimee, Liam and Emily.

Ivysaurus · 10/12/2019 08:26

Neil?

CallMeBobcat · 10/12/2019 08:26

I think it’s something, Amiee (a fancy wrong way of spelling Amy?) and Liam.....

Wetdogloveshubert · 10/12/2019 08:26

Aimee, Liam and the first is more difficult - I read it as Drecci.

zigzagbetty · 10/12/2019 08:26

Aimee and Liam maybe?

zigzagbetty · 10/12/2019 08:27

Derick

myrtleWilson · 10/12/2019 08:27

Paul for the first one - thought it was a D at first but could be a P

PooWillyBumBum · 10/12/2019 08:27

Drew, Amiee, Liam and Emily?

CallMeBobcat · 10/12/2019 08:27

First one maybe “Neill”
Whatever that is!

Good luck!!

soulrunner · 10/12/2019 08:27

Aimee, Liam and Emily are the kids I think. The woman’s name starts with D I think but I can’t make it out

soulrunner · 10/12/2019 08:28

Actually would have have an Aimee and an Emily? Seems unlikely but possible I suppose

PooWillyBumBum · 10/12/2019 08:28

Actually if the second to last is Liam then that makes the first one Draic(?!) haha!

BaronessBomburst · 10/12/2019 08:29

Definitely Aimee, Liam, and Emily.
Still working on the first one. I presume if you've chopped the husband off that we're looking for the wife's name?

myrtleWilson · 10/12/2019 08:29

oh is the first one a woman's name - not Paul then!

zigzagbetty · 10/12/2019 08:30

Becci?

zigzagbetty · 10/12/2019 08:31

Becci aimee liam

PooWillyBumBum · 10/12/2019 08:33

Based on Liam, the middle letter of the first name is an 'a', and there are no 'l's (as in Emily), but c/i/e all possible. Dreeci!?

PooWillyBumBum · 10/12/2019 08:33

Or Draci? But that's not a name. OP I have to know!! Can you intercept some post to put us out of our misery?

Fr0g · 10/12/2019 08:33

Drecci ??? Trevi? Neil?
Aimee Liam and Emily

Aimee could be Anniee - but Aimee is more likely
do you know the surname? Family X on the envelope, no names inside the card
Ask other neighbours/kidnap the postman
Shock horror - invite them round over the break and get to know them (drinks/coffee/mulled wine and mince pies)

BunloafAndCrumpets · 10/12/2019 08:34

Drew, Aimee, Liam and Emily

LIZS · 10/12/2019 08:34

Neill?

myrtleWilson · 10/12/2019 08:35

Does the man's name give us any other letter styles to go at?
