So life is stressful right now. I'm heavily pregnant, will be moving house soon, have two kids at home on summer holidays and they're driving me nuts and now DH decides he doesn't like the names Jarvis or Kit. Plus it'll be 37 degrees on Tuesday.

Can you please name my third son? Pick just one name that you would think is absolutely perfect with his brother's names of Felix and Theodore.

Parameters:

  • Nothing in the top ten (I know Theo and Felix are popular in the UK - not so here in Australia)
  • looking for something quirky but familiar - nothing predictable like William or Sebastian
  • Use Jarvis and Kit as your guide


Just one name. If we end up going with it, I'll send you a present all the way from Australia. I have 8 weeks until baby son #3 is born - please help! :)

Felix, Theo and Alistair. Normal but not too popular.
Good luck

I know a Christopher, son of Christopher, who has been called Tiff all his life. It suits him :-)

Nickname could be 'Mac'. Which, as my seven year old would say, is well cool.
