Adam and Eve?

DH is Adam
Granny was Evelyn
(DS is Samuel, not Pinch-Me!)

If DC2 (due Oct) is a girl, can I call her Evelyn (knowing it will be shortened to Eve/Evie) or would that be too silly?

i think it will be fine

when i read the title i assumed it was siblings, which i would say no too, but as it's your dh i think it'd be ok.

I agree, siblings would be too, too, silly!

fine as you're planning
I came here to say a big noooooo to twins names Grin

(my dad's aunt and uncle were Frances and William, I'll leave the abbreviations for you to figure)

I don't think it's a problem for non siblings - not sure many people would make the connection.

(FIL is Joseph - he has a sister called Mary... now that is daft)

MrsShrek - Frank and Bill? Frankie and Willy? ... I am never any good at working these things out.

thereisalightanditnevergoesout · 28/03/2011 11:14

Fanny and Willy, surely?

AltoEager · 28/03/2011 12:48

LOL to Fanny and Willy!

perhaps Judus or Pontius- religeous?
