Title says it all really, I want to balance up a longish first name and surname with a short middle name but can't think of many, I have rather got stuck with names beginning with B for some reason and DH doesn't like them (Ben, Bay and Blue suggested so far).

Any good ideas?

Loving Helyg's list... I think she may be a fellow Cymraes...

Bill is a fantastic name, I've never thought of it for a child.

notsoteenagemum, the girl's name is likely to be Mabel or Mabli.

I really like Beau!

Mabli is a lovely name.

My boys were born in May and September, and if they had been girls their middle names would have been Mai and Medi. Of course they were boys, and when I finally had a girl she was born in Februray, and Chwefror didn't have quite the same ring to it!

Meant to add Huw, too, but see at least three others have beaten me to it! However, I "fourth" their suggestion.
