Edward's brother is called...

Have one ds, Edward but always known as Eddie. Expecting another boy, and stuck for names.

A few clues -
Surname is about as common as it gets, begins with J. I love Oliver, but think that with the surname it's too much.

Mustn't begin with J or B.

Go.... (thanks :))

Why mistofalees?? Lol. I did go through a stage of wanting to call ds1 merlin, but was (thankfully) totally vetoed by dp.

What would you shorten Laurence to? I know a grown up called loz, which I don't like.

Matthew and Louis are family names, but most others are good, thank you.

My dad was called Edward, known as Eddie.
His brothers were Francis (Frank), Michael (Mike), Joseph (Joe), Gerard (Gerry) & John

Hellokittycat · 17/10/2014 22:22

I've got an Edward and an Oliver :-)
If dd had been a boy she would have been Arthur

TempsPerdu · 17/10/2014 23:08

Definitely Laurie as nickname for Laurence - like Little Women Smile
