Ive always liked Jack for a boy, although Jack Duckworth does kind of put me off a bit.

Alistairs good too, they're both good names and its unlikely the kids will get bullied with them!

And take my advice, do NOT name your children Eric and Pollard!

Nathaniel is nice, I think it means gift from God. James is a nice name as well...don't go for these silly new fangled ones!

Congrats!!! I like Joel, Theo, Ben, Matthew, Miles, but that's just this week! My little boy is called Ellis... Feel free! And have a lovely pregnancy, just make sure you take lots of rest time and enjoy being pampered by others for a change!

Congrats...my friend has twin boys and they are lovely but bloody hard work. She also has a boy who is only 17 months older than the twins.

The names i like before i decided on Jackson for my son were:- Cole, Leon, Connor, Jay. I also like traditional names like George. I liked the name Jack but their is such alot of them about so i changed it slightly and went for Jackson. I think it is cool. Its after an artist called Jackson Pollock!!

Look on credits from films, TV etc...you get a good range of names from that.

Also, make sure its a name you can shout in public...you shout alot so try shouting it, it is a good way of knowing if you really like the name. Just an idea anyway.

When are you twins due?

yeah it's definatley two boys

I like Harrison and Jackson but thats two 'sons' on the end of both of their names... James is nice - Carlton reminds me of a tv programme my other child watches!!!

The twins are due on 16th May 2006

I was talking to a few mothers this morning thinking of names for boys, this is what we come up with:- Rio, Jayden, Jude, Finley, Ethan, Lewis, Ryan, Samuel.

Eric Pollard is not a good idea!!

Won't be long then till the birth...rather you than me. Are you going for a natural birth? My friend gave birth to her boys they totalled 16½1b !! OUCH!!!

My son is called Toby so of course that's my favourite boys name.

I would recommend looking at the top 10 boys names and avoiding all of them, otherwise when they get to school they'll have 4 other children with the same name in the same class. I think Jack is pretty high up on the list.

Yes I am going for a natural birth, my partner and I want it to be at home...

I like Toby - my aunt suggested that Jack is one of their middle names...

Find something that goes well with your Surname. I bought a car off a bloke called David Davidson!!!Did his mum not think that sounded a bit odd. Also write down the initials, my middle child is teased about the initials H.A.M.....And I thought I'd got it right!!!

Jack is good but IMO Alistair is just a bit too uncommon. Never know anyone called Alistair. Met alot of Jacks though and liked all of them Razz

type 'baby names' in google and you'll find a great site with TONS of baby names Big Grin


Btw, CONGRATZ!! Smile

Are all of the names you like two names pushed together to form a weird word?
