Thank you in advance

My brothers name is Joshua and he's very rich and successful lol

Also it's a very nice strong name

Did you find out what you were having?

I voted for James. I've always loved that name and I think it goes nicely with your other kids names.

ha ha James is also Hubbys name, Hubbys dads name and his dads dads name !! I just dont like it thats why we have never used it but now on boy 4 (possibly) we have run out of options so it may just need to be a James after all !! ha ha

And no hun we stayed team green - And no clues seen though im sure i saw some white lines but i think it was the angle as ive seen boy scans where you can still see white lines

Love Elliot but think it's too similar to
Ellis. Next fav would be Josh. 🌸

I voted for James but I know you're not too crazy about it. I love Elliot but I think it's too close to Ellis.

i like elliot but it maybe too similar to ellis for them growing up, but i do really like James Elliot, its cute but you could still imagine him being something (like a solicitor or a writer) when he's older and its cute its like his daddy. You could also call him James Elliot officially but call him Elliot then that way he'd still have a different separate name from Ellis but you could use both.

although i am also rather fond of Dylan (although i'm biased as ours is rather lovely!)

Love Elliot but I agree that it's too close to Ellis. I vote for James. Do you like the name Ian?

Hi guys thanks for the input - we did worry that Elliot was too close to ellis but wondered if it really mattered - half the time we call liam or owen ellis replies and vice versa so this way if i call elliot and elliot and ellis reply atleast ive got one of them being the right one !! ha ha Plus I did rather embarrassingly stand and shout both names and didnt think outloud they sounded that bad.... Im just not keen on James as much as I hate to say it !! I also liked Lenny for a boy but DH isnt keen. Ive also started a poll over on the name board about Sandy - ale or female name in your opinions ?

Hi, I like them all except Elliot. Think they go well with the other names. Good job! Josh is a cute shortening of Joshua, James does sound great with all the other 2 syllable names (even though you might not be keen on it), and Dylan is a really cool name for the 'baby' of the family. Everyone's opinion is different - are we helping or confusing you?!
