Hello,

I love the name Patrick but not Paddy and Alex but not Alexander? Which of the above combinations do you prefer?

Sister is called Isla. Any other suggestions greatly received.

Many thanks 😊

Yes it would be Alex, but is it too popular / unisex? Alistair is nice but perhaps too many syllables so would be shortened to Ally which I'm not keen on. Patrick too Irish????

Alistair could be shortened to Al, if you like it?

Patrick Alexander is a wonderful name.
