Just that really.

I'm not a fan of biblical names - Joseph, Elias, Jonah etc.

Quite like classic names but concerned they are dull and they are 10 a penny - James, William, Edward

No 1970s names - Gary, Barry, Wayne 🤣

Or American ones - Harrison, Jackson, Reuben

There's names I consider great 'dog' names - Albie, Raffy, Oscar, Alfie..

Help!

I def think you are overthinking about a third child. Especially if you’re not even sure you’ll have one. If you’re just picking names you like (eg Nate) then any letter will be fine for a third child’s names. Plus your partners name is a T name so it’s not like you’re all the same anyway.

I know a family of 4 children, the first 2 had same initials and the last two didnt. It honestly never occurred to me once until I thought about it now. A name feels like a big deal when you’re choosing one for a baby but it just becomes the child’s name once they hve their own personality doesn’t it. I really like Nate or Christopher (Kit)- so cool 😎 but not trendy cool in a way that will daye

I've never heard of Andre the seal, my youngest was going to be Andre if she had been a boy! 😂

I really love Reese too

Definitely a generational thing I think!
