I think the first one flows better - the latter with three 3 syllables (sp) is quite a mouthful but tbh, if the names mean something to you and your family, then I would choose whatever you want.

James. It needs to be one syllable imo

MamaVoo · 04/02/2010 19:48

James.

James was the first name I though of before opening the thred - lovely combination

TattyCatty · 04/02/2010 19:54

*thread even!

TattyCatty · 04/02/2010 19:54

Oh bugger - and *thought. Less wine, more attention to spelling . Still a lovely name though

I thought of James before I'd opened the thread too!!!

We have just decided that DS will be Alexander John

StrictlyKatty · 04/02/2010 20:17

Oh excellent. Alexander is the name DH wanted from DS... but after 3 days of agony I got my way

Therefore this time he still wants Alexander! James is my best friends name and Emmanuel is DH's GF so the middle names mean something nice which is important to me.
