BOY - First pick - Colin Zayd P_ Back up - Louis (no middle name yet. Must have a Z in it) P_ GIRLS - Kaitlin Zoe Mae P_ Annabel Zoe Mae P_ After having trouble finding names I got my 22 month old son to play with wooden alphabet letter from the fridge and got him to pick 4 letters. He handed me C first which comfirmed my urge for Colin, then K and Kaitlin came to mind just out of the blue, then A and I instantly though about Annabel our CHN and though I have always loved her name and then finally L, I had Lucas on my list and Louis, DH cousin just had a baby boy Lucus so Louis has fallen into place. Thoughts ????

Louis is an awesome name, and Kaitlyn for a girl is perfect (I could be biased with that one though)

Don't crowd Sir Walter, Edmund.
Louis is a brilliant name, goes far better with your other kids than Colin does (I'd feel shortchanged if I was called Colin when I have siblings with great names). Annabel is also a great name, far better than Kaitlin (should be Caitlin).

Sorry, I think Colin is awful. Caitlin is miles better but spelt this way.

I love Colin, and it's just been approved by my DH for our boys' list. Louis is nice, but growing up in a French culture-rich area, I pronounce this Loo-wee, and constantly get corrected. (Unless you are going with the Loo-wee, then it gets a bump in approval from me!) I prefer Annabel over Kaitlin, no matter the spelling.
