Due next month, not sure what I'm having, have a girl and a boy already called Seth and Nancy so want a name which compliments these two.

So far we have a shortlist of:

GIRLS
Clara
Adelaide (Ada)
Olive

BOYS
Ralph
Felix
Gideon
Tom

I named him after Laurie Lee.

Clara, Rosamund, Beatrice and Laurie are all characters in Margaret Drabble novels that I have loved. I only realised this the other day.

DH really liked Florence. We already had a Fred. He had no idea at all about Tesco.
