Hi, I have 8 weeks until bub #3 is due and we are yet to decide (agree) on anything. We decided not to find out this time.. We have two other children and their names are: Ava Ruby & Oliver Will. Some names on out list include: Girls: Lucy Stella Lucy Matilda Stella Lucy (I prefer Stella or Lucy) Stella Maggie Matilda Lucy (husbands preferred) Boys: Harry (at this stage we both like this for a first name) but middle name?? Harry Oscar Harry Archie Harry Jack Harry Max Please help.. as you can see we prefer older styled names so anything else that you think we may like please suggest. Thanks

Stella Lucy is l's too close together for me. Lucy Stella would be better. I like the nickname Tillie but honestly prefer Talia (tahl-ya) or Tallulah to Matilda. Tilda itself I don't hate but I like Tilda Swinton and that's probably why. Harry is okay (must admit I'd prefer Henry) and it seems like it would work with any of the one syllable middles I like, like Joel, Heath, Miles, Rhys. Jack feels a bit nicknamish to me though.

QUOTE (gemgirl @ 01/01/2013, 12:41 PM) Ava, Oliver and Harry Oscar Ava, Oliver and Lucy Matilda This is great. I would avoid another name that ends with an 'a' or 'er'.

I like the idea of the kids having the same ending sound
