Why the wrong spelling of Ian, as no doubt he was named after Ian Chapman or Ian Mellor

Yes I think in retrospect that you are right but I stand by my other point
Yeah, but our's.

The eldest was born blue, so we called her Sky. The youngest was jaundiced......we called her Melanie
Actually, it was Natalie and Danielle, believe me when I say that is not as funny

Roseanna (my mother's name was Rosalie so we went for something similar)
Sean (my wife was Irish and this was a Gaelic version of her father's name)

Eleanor, which means the bright one, now aged 37.
Sophie, which is Greek for wisdom, now aged 34, nearly 35.
And we took the choice of names, including the meanings, very seriously.
And David means "firkin well 'ard so don't try it on with me, sunshine...... or to be more precise, I believe it is the Hebrew for beloved or darling, which doesn't quite command the same street cred.

We have a grandson called Mungry.
At least that’s what he keeps calling himself.

Lol our daughter is called Sophie Eleanor! She now like to be known as Sophia though.
Major fail on the quotes there
Quoted people that debating whether 'children's' was wrong when [MENTION=23006]Goring-by-Seagull[/MENTION] was talking about the rogue apostrophe in ours.

Sophia i guess would mean the same thing.
Eleanor is the version of the Greek Helen which has come to us through France. Our daughter was thrilled when we visited the tomb of Eleanor of Aquitaine, mother of Richard the Lionheart.

We have a Lauren Violet who is nearly 5. Don't know why we chose it but Violet is the wifes nan's name. Christian name was my idea. it was my suggestion so I win that one. No reason just liked it and luckily it suits her.
Number 2 is arriving in July, also a girl. And discussions are currently under way. I like Charlotte. Which can be shortened She likes Grace or Gracie. Lauren wants it called Bean or Peanut as that's what its currently called.
Still have a couple of months to decide.....

Hilary and Evelyn. Proper lads.
We have a daughter called Florence.
When her brother was born 18 months later I wanted to call him 'The Machine' but was over-ruled.
