BIL just used our ds's name on his new puppy...

Grr.. That really.
Ds1 is due today and after 9 months of stewing over a name for him ( feel like all the ones I love are spoken for by friends and family's kids) my brother in law has just named his puppy Ted. I could cry. Especially as he named his son Rex which to me is a better dog name..
We had decided a few days ago on Ted Sidney E... But feel that we can't use it now.
Any other Ted-like names we might like? Middle name is Sidney and surname begins with an E.

Congratulations on the birth of Luca, which is a lovely name.

Just so you know - his initials LSE stand for London School of Economics and London Stock Exchange, so very financial! That probably won't bother you, but didn't want you to be unaware.

Many congratulations! Luca is a gorgeous name

Luca Sidney E- is a brilliant name. Could have predicted you were in pre/early labour from your OP!

Haha was I coming across as a bit irritable?!

Congrats. Love the name.

Well I love the name Ted. Luca is good too. But you must get a dog, or a cat, or a pig or something and name it Steve. In fact every pet you get in the future: Steve, Steven, Stephanie, make it a traditional pet name. (i used to have a dog called Steve)
Congrats on new baby.

What a lovely update. Luca is a fab name.

Congratulations

My parents did it to us
Freddie, meet er freddy-the cat

Ned is great - I much prefer it to Ted.

And Luca is even better!!!! Congratulations!!!
