Hi all,
We think we have FINALLY decided on a possible boys name (hurrah!): Miles Alexander ******** The only problem is that our surname is the same as a very large city in Queensland and I am worried that having a measure of distance plus a geographical location might be a bit strange. Thoughts? |

I don't think it would be strange.
Miles Alexander is a great combo |

I think it should be fine.
Miles Alexander is a fab combination! * I knew a Miles once who we always referred to as Miles of Smiles.... he was just a very smiley person, I automatically think BIG SMILE when I hear of a Miles now! |

Just in case you have not realised - Miles is also a town in QLD. I was just about to add this. I personally think it is a bit too geographical. Sorry. Although, depending on just how well known the surname city is, you could probably get away with it if you live in another state. If you're living here in QLD it's probably not a good idea. Sorry |
