I have my girls name sorted.

But for a boy I love Zach and Noah.

I have a Jack and Lola. Neither works with them does it?

I do like Luke but went to school with 3 --who were total bastards and one bullied me-- prefer Luca, dp said no.

Billy's out because that's part of the same EastEnders clan-type set-up.

Jack, Lola and ... Samuel.

Theos on our longer list, 10 of the other names you've listed I like are nephews/siblings names! Dp has a huge family.

Is there anyway Noah can work? I know Zach and Jack is just ridiculous, and proved it to dp by calling the 5yo zach several times and him responding.

why doesn't Noah work? Except it reminds me of a Welsh friend whose accent said it for 'No'!

I do think Noah can work. Sure it's similar, but how often are all of their names said aloud together, and eventually they will grow up and live separately. I don't know, I really would just use it, I think. (Must admit I have a Noah, so I love it) Most important that you use a name you love than that the siblings' names sound smashing when said together. My 2 cents.

I have Noah and adore Lola & seriously considered it for DD but juke thought it was too much. Other boys' names we liked are Toby, James, Ben, Leo and she would have been Luca if she had been a boy! I love Luke too.

I think Noah is fine with Jack and Lola. I also like Isaac and Reuben.

Dp said Noah and Lola didn't work, the more I say it though the less I notice any issues, whereas zach and jack is just ridiculous together.

I really like Isaac, but as dc1+2 have four letter names we wanted to keep dc3 the same ideally.

Luca has grown on me a lot, I do like Luke but every Luke I've knowns not been very nice so it puts me off, I'm sure there are plenty of nice ones but not that I've had the pleasure of meeting. I like Toby but dp said no as he doesn't think it fits an adult (dp is a pita to choose names with)

guggle you have a point hopefully by the time dc 3 is likely to run off when out Jack and Lola will have stopped! They're 5 and nearly 4 now.

Hmm Luca, and Noah. It was so easy with ds we decided and that was that and it suited him.
