Clash William was ruled out for that reason, but I sort of hoped Wilbur might not get Will. Grin Too optimistic?

Glad to see that Delphi has got a good reception! I am surprised.

You may be right about Tallulah Lee being too L heavy.

And they definitely do look like Winston Churchills. Grin

Juno! It’s such a cool name that I wish I was called it. Would’ve been DD2 had dd1 not been Margot

I really like Josephine. Not really any of the other girls names. At a push, Clara would be ok.

Don't like any of the boys' names. If pushed to choose then Miles of possibly Gilbert.
