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.

Could the first one be Debbie/Debbi?

Amber2019 · 10/12/2019 09:01

Neill, aimee, Liam and Emily

Boobahs · 10/12/2019 09:02

The middle letter is the first name is the same as the "a" in Liam so there's definitely an a in there.

I would just write "to all at number X" though Grin

PrincessHoneysuckle · 10/12/2019 09:03

Just put from our family to yours,merry Christmas x

CalamityJune · 10/12/2019 09:03

Neill I think

Ridingthegravytrain · 10/12/2019 09:04

The girls name ends with an a not double e (look at the a in Liam)

Other than that not a clue!

Pieceofpurplesky · 10/12/2019 09:04

It reads 'Merry Christmas all'

Xiaoxiong · 10/12/2019 09:05

I can see both Drew and Drecci. Can't see Neill, where's the N?

This is like that blue/gold dress last Christmas isn't it.

ohprettybaby · 10/12/2019 09:06

Drew, Anice, Liam and Emily.

Spied · 10/12/2019 09:06

Neill, Aimee, Liam and Emily.

AdaColeman · 10/12/2019 09:09

Just put, “To all at number 17”.

Stayingstrong24 · 10/12/2019 09:09

Delia?

Stinkycatbreath · 10/12/2019 09:09

Becci Aimee Liam and Emily.

Boobahs · 10/12/2019 09:09

I'm just trying to work out where they would have started the first letter in the first name, at the top? At the bottom? Hmm

I would have said Traci if the first letter looked more like a T. There's a clear A, C and I in accordance with the dots in the other names.

JustHavinABreak · 10/12/2019 09:11

Aimee Liam and Emily

CaptainMyCaptain · 10/12/2019 09:11

This is the best idea unless you can collar one of the children and say 'How do you spell your Mum's name again?'.

jaseyraex · 10/12/2019 09:12

Would definitely just go with 'merry christmas from our family to yours'. That's atrocious handwriting, you're not going to get clear answers unless your neighbours are on here and help out Grin

Can you ask other neighbours?

champagneandfromage50 · 10/12/2019 09:15

First one looks like Neill, the rest others have got

Stooshie8 · 10/12/2019 09:15

Is it a mans name?
Does he have a welsh accent - Daie

Quair · 10/12/2019 09:15

Draic?

Stooshie8 · 10/12/2019 09:16

others are Aimee, Liam and Emily

Princesspickle777 · 10/12/2019 09:20

I read it as Becci, Aimee, Liam and Emily. It’s very hard to read though!.

rhubarbcrumbles · 10/12/2019 09:20

Liam or Leon for the boy, Aimee and Emily for the others. I think the first one is Drew.

Em8725 · 10/12/2019 09:20

I also think Traci, Aimee, Liam and Emily. The a in Liam looks the same as in the first name. But then the first letter doesn’t look like a T 😩

Dalooah · 10/12/2019 09:21

I'd use the mans name and address to have a google. 192 Might have something come up with his and partners name together at their address.
