I called my daughter Evelyn Grace. If she'd been a boy she was going to be Owain Lewis (possibly!)
Congratulations

Jacob (Jake) Robert if it's a boy and thinking about Summer Ruby if it is a girl.

(One of my cats was called Tarquin. The others were Veronica and Harriet)

Why Jack ?

Just curious

Bessie do you not think bum face should be hyphonated? I think Bum-Face is better myself.

Taquina-Mahree (didn't like the spelling Marie)
Jeloquondoh-Patate for a boy

I made them up. Really like the way they sound. Sort of exotic and musical

Tictacto - do you mind if I put one of your names on my 'to consider' list?

I am now torn between:

B'um - faice
Jelaquodoh - Patate - pancake
Acrid
Pince-nez-strogonoff

What do you think?

omg, I've just found this. THANKYOU FROM THE HEART OF MY BOTTOM I haven't wept with laughter for a long, long time

I am with Kitty.

I assume you are joking Tictacto if so... . If not somebody has to say this in advance of you naming your child/ren. Those names are perfectly hideous. Your children will be destined for a life of ridicule.

Don't do it.

Once I heard a woman call to her child "Ajax"
I wondered if his brother was called "Vim"

Well, in the past week, I've come across children named, respectively, Ocean, Breeze and Storm (no, they don't belong to the same family, before anyone asks), and I do know a Dutch guy called Wim pronounced 'vim', so you never know
