Something like Tess

[kmini]

Dd is Tess. Ds is Tom.

Any suggestions for no.3, if we are lucky enough.

Girls: similar to Tess. I love that her name is strong, feminine, widely known, but definitely not popular.

Boys: classic, simple but maybe slightly less common would be nice.

Any suggestions appreciated

Thank you for all your replies. So many lovely suggestions. Love how they are all short and concise names. Without even realising it I think we created a theme

Kit has always been my favourite for a boy (Christopher on BC). We are very limited with standard boys names choices as they are already taken by other family members.

Girls - I love Nina, just wish there was a slightly longer version for BC. Lara/cara/tara/zara are all lovely in my book too.

Getting DH over the line is always the hardest part.

Nina can be short for Katerina.

Tess and Tom are lovely.
