DS 6 is Joshua.
DS 2 due in december.....our names list consists of...
Jude
Sebastian
Daniel
Mitchell
.....so far.
Middle names likely to be Christopher and or John/Steve (granddads).
Any thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas or contributions welcome. Open to new names.....like uncommon but not necessarily unusual names.
TIA.

Liam is nice....but with our surname sounds like Worcester sauce....Hmm

Love Reuben and Jude.

I think Daniel would work well with Joshua. I also like Liam, Thomas, Tobias, Isaac and Caleb.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 04/10/2017 20:53

Joshua and Daniel, lovely !

MikeUniformMike · 04/10/2017 21:04

Don't like Jude or Sebastian

Joshua and Jude to matchy matchy
Mitch? I don't know.
Daniel is a classic name that never dates.

My suggested name is Fraser.

beckieperk · 04/10/2017 22:03

Thanks all. Like Fraser too....in bed now but will pass it by dh in morning. Daniel still a fave.

I know brothers called Joshua and Miles, I think it's a lovely combination.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 05/10/2017 09:26

Joshua and Ethan go well together too.

thenightmanageress · 05/10/2017 09:38

Joshua and Samuel are perfect together!

I may be a little bias here...
