So here's what I've got my hormonal heart set on thus far,

Boys

#1 Seth Angus

Albert
Dexter
Gregor
Henry
Leonard
Rufus
Stanley

Girls

#1 Audrey, possible Mae or Blythe as a middle name.

Edie
Ingrid
Margot
Martha

We already have a son named Noah Winston and have yet to find out the sex of current bebe (although I intend on doing so).

Our surname begins with A, is 4 syllables, very Scottish and also a popular boys forename. I don't know if an alliterative forename sounds cool or ridiculous...but I did originally have Alasdair and Agnes on the lists and have discarded both as they don't seem to 'scan'. Audrey and Albert sound fine though (IMO).

All thoughts and opinions welcome...

Thanks everyone.

My OH has vetoed quite a few of the choices already...

Albert, Dexter and Edie.

He's also not keen on calling the LO Seth as we live in the North of England and he will most likely be called "Seff" by his peers...reasonable enough I suppose.

Rufus has also got the cold shoulder...even though he's also quite the fan of Mr Wainwright. He just thinks it may cause him problems in school...again, perfectly reasonable.

We are quite set on Audrey Blythe at the moment and looking at Angus as a first name. Still loving Lenny and OH made a few suggestions in the shape of Otto (which I haven't quite got my head around yet) and Saul.

I'm sure this one is set to run and run right up until I'm ready to pop!

Thanks again.

From your list I don't honestly love any of your boys names but I do like Stanley a lot.

From your girls list I love, love love Ingrid, wish I'd thought of it... to late now!

I adore Seth (I have one)

emmyloulou · 01/10/2010 12:24

I like Henry, I really dislike Mae for a middle/double barelled name, it's everywhere.

I'm getting the impression that it's used a lot...I wasn't aware of this.

I also didn't realise the popularity of Martha or Stanley.

Boys:
love Henry
like Gregor and Albert

Love all your girls' names (but not Mae)

emmyloulou · 01/10/2010 12:40

Oh yes, Stanley is quite popular but Mae, yes loads of little girls with something-Mae.
