Hope this relieves some of the pressure you're putting on yourself: Sibling names do not need to sound good together! You are naming an adult, not a baby. Once they're in school, get a job, get married, whatever, no one is ever going to refer to them as a pair ever again. Just trying to take some pressure off!
As a viewer from the “we would be disgusting” days, I think another shared passion for you both is planning fun events and activities for friends and family to make them happy xx
I still think Daisy Deyes is cute, but maybe another "O" name? Ottie and Olive is cute together. Maybe a cute unisex name (other than the boy name that Alfie really likes)? Think about how you chose Ottilie and what made it stand out to you, and use that process for baby girl #2's name.
As I get older I definitely enjoy watching more genuine and chill videos, you’re right, there’s no need in following trends if you don’t feel like it!!
My question was about following the social media trends!! I have been watching you both since I was 12 years old, I am now 23 I love that you are both genuine and I feel like this is a safe, comforting space. I prefer to watch you both doing your own thing than watching others following all the trends and feeling like they need to keep up. Thankyou for always bringing so much joy to our screens💓
Throwing some names out there, hope you find the perfect one for your little one! Averly/Amalie/ Lilliana (Lili) /Penelope (Penny) /Madeline (Maddie)/ Abigail (Abbie)
i love the name Ophelia, if you wanted to stick with the letter "O". Otillie and Ophelia sit very nicely together and i also know few of my friends whose parents have done this by keeping them within the same letter. Lot's of love from Perth Western Australia! xx
U have no idea how much I needed an Alfie or Zoe vlog. Currently surviving on caffeine and no sleep. My other half was at McDonald's drive through at 4am this morning with our 10 month old as she decided sleep wasn't for her 😂😂😂😂❤❤
Oh gosh I remember the silly o'clock drives when my son was that age. He's now 5. But having my husband go on a drive to get him to go to sleep was such a difficult time. You've both got this! X
1:30 am in Mexico, and here watching your video is the only good thing that has happened this day. Your videos literally have been there when I needed them the most. Love you guys
I was telling my daughter who is 11 that I've been watching you guys since she was a baby. Her name is Evelyn (a lovely name btw feel free to use it 😅) X
This style of video felt so nostalgic - I've been watching your videos since around 2013 so its crazy to think about how much has happened over that time ! xx
I’ve always found Zoe and Alfie so inspirational, they make me look at things in such a different way and it genuinely gives me motivation. The fact they now have their own family with another little one on the way and they still have time to create great videos for us even if it’s a sit down chat like this one is amazing! They are doing so well and I will continue to watch both of their videos until they stop making them 😂
My brother was a surprise (shall we say) after 3 girls but I can’t picture life without him now it’s so weird! But that was also the same with my little sister but because my brother was unexpected I still can’t imagine life without him in it, like he fits in perfectly❤ he’s the best little brother- always looked out of his older sisters bless him
I absolutely love that you want to come to Canada! I am Canadian and have visited most of our country coast to coast, except for the far north. You and your girls will love it!
i’ve been watching you both for 8 years (since i was 10) and i’m 18 now, almost 19. i don’t think i’ve ever commented on any of your videos before but i definitely think i’m on the younger end of your audience
This video just reminded me why I love you guys so much. I joined the whole social media world because of you, as a creator. It's been a crazy ride. Hearing you talk about how much you love it and how you don't do it just to follow trends, gave me such a warm feeling of "yes, these are MY people". Thank you so much for making the internet feel like a safe space for so many of us! Love following your journey so much 💖
I absolutely LOVE yours and Zoe’s channels. As a mom of 2 teenagers it’s so nice to see y’all enjoy life, raise Ottie and be wonderful parents. Thank you for sharing your lives with us 🙏🏻💜🥰
I've just watched a movie with the main character's name being Adelaide (Addie). Addie & Ottie? I dunno, just thought it sounded cute together. Happy Sunday from Pennsylvania :)
The think you’ve said about you’re still feeling the passion of making videos throung all this years, i personally believe it’s what makes us bounded with you, guys. Luv u, can’t wait for your special August
Me and my now husband became an official couple in May 2009, I’ve been watching you both since we moved in together later in that year! And you’ve both inspired so many areas of my life! 🥰 I love this Zoe & Alfie community!💕
Lovely to wake up on a Sunday morning and watch this video while I'm having a quick clean and tidy of the house, before my in laws bring our son home, as he slept at theirs last night x
Hello from a pretty silent watcher. I've been a viewer of Zoe's since 2012 and 2013 for you Alfie. A quick thanks to you both for the comfort and enjoyment your content has provided! My idea for August: A couple of years back, you and Zoe discussed some of your charity work and your help with (I think) a nursing home. I'd love to hear of any more recent charity involvement - a great way to show us who we should be supporting being able to see where our donations etc. go to. All the best with your pregnancy journey Zoe (and enjoy cooking, Alfie)!
This was such a cute and chatty video. Lovely to see how you two look at each other and laugh together. And of course listen to you talk. Sweet couple!
Omg the beginning what a throwback 😂 I’ve been watching you guys since Zoe lived in her flat and have loved watching you life evolve, thank you for sharing it with us ❤️ I’m defo enjoying the early uploads makes for a great Sunday morning :)
Some name suggestions that might go with Ottilie. - Ottilie and Jade - Ottilie and Clementine - Ottilie and Serephina - Ottilie and Elena - Ottilie and Hope - Ottilie and Sienna - Ottilie and Magnolia - Ottilie and Primrose
I really enjoyed this “chit-chat” with you guys! I grew up watching your videos and it’s very refreshing to talk about these life topics with you guys and to see how well you get along 😁🤍
Elorie, Nola, Cora. All names of children at the school I work at and they certainly stood out to me. Very unique and never had a child with those names before!! Also Amelie is cute, had a few children with that name and it’s really cute and goes nicely with Ottilie
i loved seeing the evolution of otties nursery - i hope you do that with baby 2 also!! i can’t wait to see what name you settle on, i’m so looking forward to Vlogust!
You have the luxury of not needing to chase the trends as you already made your money when you were in the sweet spot of RUclips and you created the trends. 😊
I think a name ending in -ia or -a would be lovely paired with both Deyes and Ottilie e.g. Olivia, Aurelia (meaning golden, perfect for Christmas), Aria, Luella, Amelia, Isla, Clara, Eliza (❤) ...
Prince Edward Island is a lovely place to visit with kids. Lots of beautiful camp grounds. Beautiful beaches and fun parks. Wonderful places to eat and little traffic.
My husband and I went on holiday with our 6month and 3 year old to Hawaii this last year and had the most amazing time! It’s exhausting but you so worth it!
Firstly, congratulations on the second pregnancy! I’m so elated for you two! I’ve been watching since I lived with my parents and you both lived with yours, I love that it feels as if we have grown up together. I’m so happy to see your family growing. My fiancé and I are starting our family soon also. I love to see your parenthood journey with the highs and lows. I also manage anxiety and it’s nice to feel I’m not alone. Thank you for your honesty. Baby Name Suggestions: Imogen (Immy) Elowen (Elle) Ophelia (Fifi) Imogen is my personal fav! Ottilie & Imogen sounds so cute together! Suggestions for August Vlogs: I would love to see baby shopping, favorite online shops, cute boutiques in The Lanes, and if she’s going to have her own nursery; I’d love to see nursery decor! Truthfully anything you post, I’ll be happy to watch. Definitely my comfort vlogs. I can’t wait for August!
Would love some early autumn content as we come to the end of August, maybe a summer trifle/eton mess, star gazing evening to sync with the perseid meteor shower, pizza making, Mark and Zoe days, road trip to Barry island 🤣
I never realised this before but maybe the reason I enjoy follow you and why I kept doing it for all these years is that you guys don't do trends! Trends get old in a moment, genuine people stay!
I've been watching you both for years and nowadays i prefer what you do, i think its because ive grown up with you and i prefer the more mature content now im older
I’d give them totally different sounding names. They’re sisters but each are individuals. Also when they’re adults you want them to have a name that doesn’t sound like a baby only name 😂 I think people forget they’re going to be a 40 year old a some point 😅 I seen someone post ‘Noelle or Noel’ for a December baby and Zoe’s love for Christmas. Such a lovely idea!
I’m no where near close to having a kid but I have had a list of baby names since I was 14 ( 16 years) and I’m still adding and dropping names so I think you just have to have enough that you both like and then narrow it down from there.
Speaking of growing up with your channel I’ve been watching since I was 11! Now my older brother has a daughter same age as Ottie due in the same month and yesterday found out my sister is pregnant with a Christmas baby due the same month as your second girl! It’s nice watching your journey and seeing pregnancy wise your in a similar place as my older siblings!
Hope this relieves some of the pressure you're putting on yourself: Sibling names do not need to sound good together! You are naming an adult, not a baby. Once they're in school, get a job, get married, whatever, no one is ever going to refer to them as a pair ever again. Just trying to take some pressure off!
I think Ottilie (Ottie) and Rosalie (Rosie) would sound SOOO lovely together ❤ Greetings from Germany!
Hearing you say “our girls” is crazy!! Literally have a little family ❤
Christmas baby needs a festive name, Noelle
Super cute.
Ottie and Elle
My Great Grandma was called Eira [pronounced Eye-Ra] which is a sweet winter name meaning Snow in Welsh 😊
I would love to see some of the process of the new baby’s room, clothes, etc!
I love aurora - rori for short, Ottie and Rori sound cute together!
As a viewer from the “we would be disgusting” days, I think another shared passion for you both is planning fun events and activities for friends and family to make them happy xx
Ottilie and Ophelia are so cute together
I still think Daisy Deyes is cute, but maybe another "O" name? Ottie and Olive is cute together. Maybe a cute unisex name (other than the boy name that Alfie really likes)? Think about how you chose Ottilie and what made it stand out to you, and use that process for baby girl #2's name.
This is giving 2015/2016 vibes all over again! I love love love seeing you two together just being yourselves 🥹
As I get older I definitely enjoy watching more genuine and chill videos, you’re right, there’s no need in following trends if you don’t feel like it!!
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A 'HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW EACHOTHER' VIDEO!!!!!
Yeah an updated one would be sooo cool 🤗
Would love to see you preparing the baby girl's room :)
Also ‘willow’ is a gorgeous baby name
So lovely to have a chatty sit down vlog, perfect for a relaxed sunday morning, watching in bed as i just woke up✨
My question was about following the social media trends!!
I have been watching you both since I was 12 years old, I am now 23
I love that you are both genuine and I feel like this is a safe, comforting space.
I prefer to watch you both doing your own thing than watching others following all the trends and feeling like they need to keep up.
Thankyou for always bringing so much joy to our screens💓
Throwing some names out there, hope you find the perfect one for your little one! Averly/Amalie/ Lilliana (Lili) /Penelope (Penny) /Madeline (Maddie)/ Abigail (Abbie)
I want to see more Joe and Ottie moments in the vlogs
Alfie I'm currently cycling across Africa! And whenever I have internet I love to catch up on your vides, so comforting!
Name suggestion: Juniper. It has the same vibe as Ottilie and is Christmas related 🎄 And I think Ottie and Junie sound great together
you did the boyfriend tag because that’s where ‘courgette’ was born!!
i love the name Ophelia, if you wanted to stick with the letter "O". Otillie and Ophelia sit very nicely together and i also know few of my friends whose parents have done this by keeping them within the same letter. Lot's of love from Perth Western Australia! xx
U have no idea how much I needed an Alfie or Zoe vlog. Currently surviving on caffeine and no sleep. My other half was at McDonald's drive through at 4am this morning with our 10 month old as she decided sleep wasn't for her 😂😂😂😂❤❤

Zoe looks so happy. I’m glad she’s back in the videos. The both of you are so funny. Excited to catch up with both of you each day during August. 😊
My eldest little girl is a couple of weeks older than ottie, her name is Iris. I think Ottie and Iris sound quite nice together
1:30 am in Mexico, and here watching your video is the only good thing that has happened this day. Your videos literally have been there when I needed them the most. Love you guys
Maybe it is also a cute idea to include Ottilie in your decision for the name of the baby. See how cute it is, when she speaks them out aloud.
You should be proud of yourself for being such a fantastic father, Alfie. 👏🏽
I was telling my daughter who is 11 that I've been watching you guys since she was a baby. Her name is Evelyn (a lovely name btw feel free to use it 😅) X
I like Olive and Ottilie (I like names with the same first letter for siblings) :)
I love something along the Christmas theme since it’s a December baby and Zoe’s love for Christmas! Maybe baby Noelle? Noelle & Ottie🥺x
This style of video felt so nostalgic - I've been watching your videos since around 2013 so its crazy to think about how much has happened over that time ! xx
You should absolutely do a Canada road trip! I’m from Canada but living in London now, and when I have kids I will definitely be doing that with them!
I’ve always found Zoe and Alfie so inspirational, they make me look at things in such a different way and it genuinely gives me motivation. The fact they now have their own family with another little one on the way and they still have time to create great videos for us even if it’s a sit down chat like this one is amazing! They are doing so well and I will continue to watch both of their videos until they stop making them 😂
My brother was a surprise (shall we say) after 3 girls but I can’t picture life without him now it’s so weird! But that was also the same with my little sister but because my brother was unexpected I still can’t imagine life without him in it, like he fits in perfectly❤ he’s the best little brother- always looked out of his older sisters bless him
We need more vlogs of the Golden Squad: Zoe Mark Alfie Sean Poppy
hearing Zoe talk about Alfie picking up hobbies like litter has me dying. my partner is the exact same way so i can relate!!
I absolutely love that you want to come to Canada! I am Canadian and have visited most of our country coast to coast, except for the far north. You and your girls will love it!
i’ve been watching you both for 8 years (since i was 10) and i’m 18 now, almost 19. i don’t think i’ve ever commented on any of your videos before but i definitely think i’m on the younger end of your audience
when you were talking about keeping up with trends, you guys were the trends 😂 you guys were part of the OG creators to kickstart the whole industry!
This video just reminded me why I love you guys so much. I joined the whole social media world because of you, as a creator. It's been a crazy ride. Hearing you talk about how much you love it and how you don't do it just to follow trends, gave me such a warm feeling of "yes, these are MY people".

i would love to see a video on what zoe suggested about social media and the different ways it could have gone, like a little reflection :)
I've just watched a movie with the main character's name being Adelaide (Addie). Addie & Ottie? I dunno, just thought it sounded cute together. Happy Sunday from Pennsylvania :)
The think you’ve said about you’re still feeling the passion of making videos throung all this years, i personally believe it’s what makes us bounded with you, guys. Luv u, can’t wait for your special August
Me and my now husband became an official couple in May 2009, I’ve been watching you both since we moved in together later in that year! And you’ve both inspired so many areas of my life! 🥰 I love this Zoe & Alfie community!💕
I think Marigold (Goldie), Clementine (Clemmie), Flora or Daisy would sound cute with Ottilie!
As a fellow Virgo, the picking hobbies up like litter of the ground (and the need to be good at it) comment from Zoe was very accurate 😂
I started watching you when I was 17 and now I am 27, tired and old watching these cosy videos
Lovely to wake up on a Sunday morning and watch this video while I'm having a quick clean and tidy of the house, before my in laws bring our son home, as he slept at theirs last night x
Congratulations on the baby announcement 🥹🫶🏻 Ottie and Ophelia would be so cute together ❤

This was such a cute and chatty video. Lovely to see how you two look at each other and laugh together. And of course listen to you talk. Sweet couple!
I know yall aren't going vlogmas, but selfishly I'd love to a Christmas house decor vlog.
I love how you guys "don't follow" the trends, I just love the videos and how real they are🥰
I love how in love Zoe and Alfie are!
We definitely need more Mark and Zoe content 😊😊🤭
Omg the beginning what a throwback 😂 I’ve been watching you guys since Zoe lived in her flat and have loved watching you life evolve, thank you for sharing it with us ❤️ I’m defo enjoying the early uploads makes for a great Sunday morning :)

Florence or Flo would really compliment Ottilie and Ottie I feel! Not biased or anything… :)
Prince Edward Island is a lovely place to visit with kids. Lots of beautiful camp grounds. Beautiful beaches and fun parks. Wonderful places to eat and little traffic.
Please go to the garden centre/home sense with Mark, summer edition instead of Halloween/Xmas 😊
Plans for the new baby’s nursery?! I always wonder how you use your top floor where it used to be your office! The best videos x
ottilie and olive sounds so good together 🥹
My daughter is called Melody and she’s given me permission to tell you it’s ok to use it. 😂😂😂😂
Absolutely love it when you and Zoe sit down to chat! Feel like the Vlog is a bit slower and chill that way💕
My husband and I went on holiday with our 6month and 3 year old to Hawaii this last year and had the most amazing time! It’s exhausting but you so worth it!
Some name suggestions: Ivy, June, Amelie, Celeste, Anaïs, Violet 💜💜💜
Firstly, congratulations on the second pregnancy! I’m so elated for you two!

Ophelia (Fifi)
Imogen is my personal fav! Ottilie & Imogen sounds so cute together!

Soo soo happy for you guys! I have been here since the ‘Love and Valentine’s Day’ video days 🥲
I never realised this before but maybe the reason I enjoy follow you and why I kept doing it for all these years is that you guys don't do trends! Trends get old in a moment, genuine people stay!
Omg the baby name has to go with y'alls like Alfie, Zoe and Otillie. So it has to be like Natalie or Rosalie or Gracie or something similar lol ❤️
How about the name Matilda? It’s got German origins like Ottilie. It’s nice shortened to Tillie too!
I love that you want to come here!!!! We would love to have you enjoy our beautiful country. Can’t wait to see your little family grow. Xo🇨🇦
Iris is one i personally love. Blake is a good unisex one. Joy is beautiful.
I've been watching you both for years and nowadays i prefer what you do, i think its because ive grown up with you and i prefer the more mature content now im older
I’d give them totally different sounding names. They’re sisters but each are individuals.

I seen someone post ‘Noelle or Noel’ for a December baby and Zoe’s love for Christmas. Such a lovely idea!
Hope there is a little animation at the beginning of the august vlogs like in vlogmas 😊
Well you guys I grew up watching you so it feels like I’m part of the family now 😂🥹
i would love to see how you are decorating the new baby’s room.
It’s 3Am and Alfie Deyes posts a video…honestly PERFECT timing while I’m up with my kids 😅
agree with the festive/holiday season name like Noelle, Ivy, Snow
I’m no where near close to having a kid but I have had a list of baby names since I was 14 ( 16 years) and I’m still adding and dropping names so I think you just have to have enough that you both like and then narrow it down from there.
Aww Zoë you're glowing. Lovely to see you guys happy
I'm named after Brighton, Wales. It's cool to watch you guys hang out at the beach and around town there.
Natalie would fit really well with Ottilie and is also a Christmas name :)
Loved this! Love that you're mostly on RUclips. The social media chat was my best bit of the video for me!
Love the name Juniper!!
You’ve got to come to Canada! We grew up travelling across the country in a motorhome, the best memories! ❤
Speaking of growing up with your channel I’ve been watching since I was 11! Now my older brother has a daughter same age as Ottie due in the same month and yesterday found out my sister is pregnant with a Christmas baby due the same month as your second girl! It’s nice watching your journey and seeing pregnancy wise your in a similar place as my older siblings!
