I like most of your names but Joseph and Jasmine are my favourites. I also like
Cassia, Susannah and Mary with your boy's names.

@Violet1988

Because I find it mildly irritating when people don't come back and update baby name threads I had to come back and update my own.

My baby boy was born at the beginning of December 2021 and we called him Joseph William.

Lovely names. Congratulations 🎉🎉

Congratulations OP, fab names and have fun with your three boys Thanks

newbiename · 15/04/2022 08:12

😬 just noticed.

darlingdodo · 15/04/2022 08:16

Like all your boys names but would possibly use James nn Jack.

For girls, as your boys names are strong, traditional names I wouldn't go with anything 'frilly'.

Emma
Hannah
Esther
Eleanor
Jane
Miriam

darlingdodo · 15/04/2022 08:17

Duh. Joseph William is perfect. Congratulations!

Lovely name. Congratulations!

I like all your boy names, but feel James would be a better fit than Jack.

Girls names are all lovely.

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 15/04/2022 09:24

I don't understand why sibling's names need to be coordinated.

There's three of us in our family and ours don't match - Wynken, Blynken and Nod - never been a problem except once when we tried to hire a boat.

theremustonlybeone · 15/04/2022 09:24

I like Luke out of the boys names.

Girls

Ettie
Amelie
Louis
