2 of my friends have just called their babies the same as one of your DSs Califrau

Our short list

Zack
Oliver
Max
William
Jasper
James
Ben

Hi Us [waves] - still not sleeping then?

Big, Califrau
such a lovely name. except the 2 are very good friends and the boys are only 9 weeks apart or so in age. the second one has used DS's name as a middle name too, and the first used the name we nearly called DS. You'd think we could come up with a wider selection!
really will get onto those coins. have them here, just need to sort my life out.

BTW MamanFlo, my new DS is Henry. LOVE it, so pleased with the name

Im so glad we called our ds Henry, everybody loves it.

Born and bred north of the border.........

Alexander (Sandy) David Grant
Andrew Stuart Donald

DD is Margaret Heather Mhairi (DH wanted Andrewina but I vetoed that!)

My old boss was French and had boys Thomas and Louis. Both good in England and France. And VERY handsome lads too.

My DS is Benjamin. Which is of course the best boy's name going... .

Harry Thomas

Congrats mamanflo
Both my DS names are on here already, and all flagged up as working well in french

My Ds is called Fraser James.

We have Morgan and Ethan. dd is Caitlin.

Toby

ds1 Hugo, ds2 Elliot, ds3 Theodore.

ds1 was stillborn however, so you aren't allowed to use hugo. it's the law... unless your baby is as gorgeous as H was.

Katyp - for the loss of Hugo. It is a beautiful name, and perfect for French as well and English speakers.

Sorry kateyp

I have Noah Jack George and Elijah Samuel. Knew a French lady with twins who were Noah and Oliver - because she too needed the bilingual possibility!

seth would be a nightmare for the french

when i was feeling sadistic i used to get the french kids i taught to say 'thistle'

nigh on impossible for them - comes out either 'sissle' or 'thithle'

(but then my 'la rue' was always v dodgy)

Son is called Ivan (family name).

I wanted him to be called Oliver, (my hubby hates that name).

We also both liked Otis.

i have a Ben and am also expecting a boy, we think he will be called Tate.

Ds is Oscar - don't know what happens to that in French

btw mamanflo, am i right in thinking that 'le benjamin' in french = the youngest?
