TTC later this year, name hunt begins!

For me anyway… DH qualifies in his new career in [name_f]September[/name_f] and although we’ve agreed to TTC then, he is not quite at the point where he wants to talk names yet!

I’ve been browsing on nameberry for a few months now and seem to prefer traditional yet something a little bit different names or names which have links to Mythology/ Literature.

My family also has a tradition of using three forenames which I’d like to carry on. We both have large families so some names are taken although I would consider using a family name as a MN.

DH is from an Irish background was brought up catholic but no longer practicing and I am from an English background was bought up C of E and attend church semi-regularly.

We’re in the UK.

Phew so that’s me… Here are my current favourites…

What do people think and any suggestions for the boys?

We have to be careful with ‘ssss’ sounds in first names because of our surname. ‘S’ at the beginning is fine.
