Declan Mark Finn Richard Hugo Mark Corbin Richard I love all your boys names, but I wouldn't use the combo of Finn Richard. I forsee teasing issues with those together. Blair Alise Mila Alise I like Blair, but prefer Elise. Not keen on Mila.

I would go for Hugo Richard. I don't think either Blair or Mila sounds good with the middle name Alise, and I don't think either name is as nice as Romy. Any other options?

Thanks for all your replies! Middle name will have to be spelt alise, as it is my name lol Yes didn't think about the Finn Richard teasing issues, thanks for picking up on that. Corbin is my fav but hubby not too keen, he likes Finn the best. Declan is a new one I have come up with and is growing on me. Hugo has always been a favourite but is a bit of a bold choice I think?. No other girls names come to mind at the moment

If you don't like common names then I'd be wary of Finn. I love the name but i know three under three at the moment and it seems to be one of those names that's growing in popularity.

QUOTE (kerilyntaryn @ 07/02/2013, 01:07 PM) Sheyne Cheyne Are these said differently from each other, and are they shay-na or like Shane? I don't mind Shayna/Shaina but I think of it as pretty ethnic.
