Thanks very much lloyd1e.

[gen2]

First one looks like Pandy (P = quiet, and = too, y = young)
but the only pandy I have heard of is Andy Pandy!

[Phil7]

Paddy ???

[teacher1]

Thanks gen2 and phil7. I am tempted to go with phil7. Has anybody else got any thoughts ? Thanks again.

[gen2]

Yes I agree Phil7's Paddy is better. I'd go with that.

[teacher1]

Thanks gen2.

[ontarioice]

I'd go with Paddy, too.
Don't use the word 'and' but instead 'add' for the too and you get P(quiet) add (too) y.

[teacher1]

Cheers ontarioice.
