Harry Alexander
Henry Donald*, William, Joseph and Isabel
Henry Edward, Emma
Henry Michael Imre, Lily
Jack James**
Jackson Thomas, Holly
James Christopher*, Jackson
James Thomas
Matteo Jean
Maximilian Joseph Kent*
Maxwell Alexander, Annabel
Miles David
Ned Christopher - prefer Edward Christopher, nn Ned
Oliver Digby*, Emily - if only he had a sister named Eleanor Rigby!
