Any ideas on what you'd call a lttle brother or sister for Alec & Seb?

longer names or a similar syllables seem to flow better than Bob & Mary;
Benedict, Gabriel or William and Catherine or Vivienne are no goes but the style I'd like so I'd say I like classic/slightly poncey.
dh likes 'normal' less frilly names (Henry, James, Rebecca etc, he hates Benedict)!

Argh, typed out a massive reply & internet are it!

Is Camilla too associated with 'her'? I've always loved it but not sure if I'd use it?

Congratulations on your recent arrivals (& fab name choices) Piglet!

Love Arabella, Fredrick...Jennifer, hmm will have a think!

Thanks again everyone, lots to consider!

No idea for girls names...

I instantly thought : Joshua

It sounds like it's from the same "pack" and it shortens the way the others do as well.
