[Davidtennantmistress]

we're stuck for a boy's name, ages to decide yet, we have a wyatt and a joseph.

middle name will be ronald. (family links)

we have beatrice sally for a girl (family links again)

i'm not sure on Otis. if not what 'b' names are there for boys, please not ben or any variation on it though. We did both like bertie, or Albie is that a sound name, not too pompus (hubs and I are the least pompus you'd meet)

Thank you.

Various plants ending in -otis eg Cyanotis, Stephanotis, Myosotis

Lifts

It was on my list of boys names even though my first thought was always the aardvark

redding

Aardvark

Lifts - I worked in a building with a stupid lift that didn't stop level with the floors, if it bothered stopping at all.

We had to move trollies and gas cylinder trollies and the man from Otis was a regular visitor.

DS1 is called Otis after Otis Redding. I didn't even think about the lifts until after he was born and at his first d

Sorry but Lifts and Reading too

Lifts.
