Hugh (can't remember middle name) and William John.

Husband's favourite grandad was Arthur, I can't remember what the other one was called. If we had had a boy he'd have been called Arthur.

Phil(lip) & Billy (William)

Step family grandads were Neil & Angus

StuckInTheMiddleWithJude · 27/08/2018 19:29

@evilharpy it's lovely the number of people who would want to honour their grandads 😊 Arthur is a good name too. Bit of an Essex accent here and it doesn't do the name justice at all. Love Art too.
