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.

Can anyone decipher this handwriting for me?

This could be the French name (I think) ‘Drurie’. It’s spelled a few ways - so it could be ‘Drerie’ instead.

Tellem87 · 16/12/2019 00:37

Steve, Drew, Aimee, Liam and Emilie. Or all at number x!!! Xmas Grin

TheClaws · 16/12/2019 01:41

Or a very strangled ‘Denise’.

TheNamesBond · 16/12/2019 02:03

Steve, Draci, Aimee, Liam, Emily.

Just sign your card with your names!!!?

RubyRed24 · 16/12/2019 10:12

Did your work colleague get back to you?

whatnametopick · 16/12/2019 11:25

Hali?

badg3r · 16/12/2019 12:10

Just write it in your card back EXACTLY the same op, then you will never need to ask 🤣

SallyGardens · 16/12/2019 17:20

Has anyone suggested Darci yet?

Julz1969 · 17/12/2019 01:24

It looks like, Neill, Aimee, Liam and Emily

ThanksForAllTheFish · 17/12/2019 01:40

First name looks like Heidi to me.

Then Aimee (French spelling of Amy), Liam and Emily

Upsidedownpineapplecake · 17/12/2019 04:34

Snail, Gail or nail ??
Please go and ask them
You could say something like thanks for your card I sorry for some reason I thought you name was Becci but it isn’t it’s —and then pause and she will tell you her name and you both will laugh and then you and all of us will know

Mrsmummy90 · 17/12/2019 08:58

I don't think I will ever be ok again until I know her name 😂

LaurieMarlow · 17/12/2019 09:18

Me either Mrsmummy.

If I knew where the OP lived I’d go and ask her myself 😆

Bootstraps · 17/12/2019 09:32

Ditto to asking myself @LaurieMarlow
Come on OP, this is incredibly frustrating!

5foot5 · 17/12/2019 13:45

BUMP.
This has been going on for a week now. I have said it once and will say it again - just go round and ask!!!!

soupforbrains · 17/12/2019 14:01

@DebbieFiderer COME BAAAAAAACK

We all need closure on this. At least update us as to whether you've found out or not.

For what it's worth I now think it's probably Diane with the dot for the i having drifted.

Stravapalava · 17/12/2019 14:36

Traci.

Come on OP!!

Moaningmeadowlark · 17/12/2019 22:47

Diana

RubbishRubbishRubbish · 17/12/2019 22:52

Neill Aimer Liam and Emily

coragreta · 18/12/2019 22:47

Why haven't you asked yet?

Indie139 · 19/12/2019 21:06

Darci

HearMeSnore · 31/12/2019 10:28

So what was it?

Did you chicken out and just not send a card, or is there some closure?

SingaporeSlinky · 17/01/2020 12:17

@debbiefiderer can we get closure?? 🙂

popof3 · 27/01/2020 20:48

I used to say awful things about ex. USA had a comedian Dangerfield who comically said “no respect.” And I used that mantra often. Well, some was true. I could have stayed, I miss my pussy, hated yardwork, now a bigger house seems foolish, just more to take care of.
My girls are adjusting, and I am glad we’re both changing for the better. Just a lot of immature rubbish!!

Sneezein3s · 27/01/2020 21:10

It’s becci, Aimee, Liam and Emily x
