On my profile is a scan photo of ds2.We are really struggling with a name this time.
Ds1 is called Finlay (usually shortened to Fin- unless i'm doing my stern voice),i love unusual names (honestly, Fin was when we chose it) and steer clear of 'old' traditional names.
I would like to be able to shorten the name if possible but will consider anything.
Oh and we have a Scottish surname.
Any ideas?

Struan - its my favourite boy's name - and ds's, and Scottish .

Oh dear. I pressed post before thinking it through. I think scan photos all look the same so can't think of an individual name. But I remember thinking my far more blurry photo clearly showed individual beautiful children so I shouldn;t be taking the p. Sorry.
