Posting this prematurely but i cant stop thinking about it.

for a girl its definitely going to be Penelope Ada but for a boy were stuck between

Albert
Stirling
Ellwood
Rupert

his middle name would be either Leonard or Mark

Please can you give me your thoughts or suggest alternatives? we like traditional but not common

thanks

I like Albert Leonard. I prefer Stirling spelled this way.

I like Albert, would you shorten it? Love Albie and Bertie!
I'm quite like Rupert but now keen on the others especially Stirling.
Albert Leonard goes really well together.

Penelope is gorgeous by the way!

Elwood! Oh, that's autocorrected, I meant your original spelling, Ellwood. DH really wanted this if DD had been a boy. Ellwood Mark, Leonard is about of a mouthful (on that note I would go for a single syllable middle name for Penelope).

I like Albert and am not keen on the others. Love Penelope!

Albert seems to be a firm favourite! I would shorten it to albie but i like that albert is a good grown up name for whatever profession he will go into.

I no what you mean about penelope needing a one syllable middle name but Ada is my great grandmothers name so have chosen it for that reason. 99.9% of the time she will be called penelope or penny not followed by ada so i think its ok.
