I'm pregnant with baby number 3.

DS is called Ellis Reece and DD is Amelia (Millie) Seren.

That alone rules out a lot of names I liked, such as Lily (DD gets called Millie jsut as much as she does Amelia), Eris, Camellia... on top of that, my surname is Short. Ugh.

So umm - can anyone think of any names that go?

I like names that are heard of but not too popular, or unusual - Ellis I think fits the bill so would like something similar for a boy, and for girls I like feminine names; current likes are Sapphire, Violet, Erin, Eden, Tabitha, Matilda...and Ayla jumped out at me the other day but no clue which way to pronounce it! :)

Suggestions very welcome x

Oh my daughter's middle name is Aayla, I wish I'd been brave enough to use it as a first name sometimes. It looks really nice when I write it - all swirly (not sure why that's so important to me, but it is!)
