Sibling for Kit

Good morning,

We are due to have our DD1/DS2 in 6 weeks and are having trouble thinking of names for either that go well with our DS1, who is Kit (just Kit, not Christopher).

Any suggestions would be helpful or else baba will be 'baby' for the foreseeable 😂

Can only be Kat in the time honoured thundercats tradition.

@whatsyourflava we love Bodhi..

Our only reservation is the spelling, even though it is the traditional spelling of the Sanskrit name.

Do you think Bode/Bodie/Bodi is workable? I wouldn't want people to pronounce Bodhi like body rather than Bow-dee?

Stick with the Sanskrit! I know a few Bodhis (unfortunately, they are dogs! But don't let that put you off! Grin). But don't mess around with the spelling. Bodhi is a cool name because of its meaning and spelling.

Bodie is a California ghost town. I'm from CA, so not a lot of people in the UK will make that association.

I like Rex, Seth and Giles/Miles too but DH isn't convinced.

Love Lou, so adorable. DH likes Polly but I'm unsure it goes with Kit.

DH likes Edward with nn Woody.
