Baby Names, Family Holiday & Thoughts on Social Media

[@janate7435]

I think Ottilie (Ottie) and Rosalie (Rosie) would sound SOOO lovely together ❤ Greetings from Germany!

[@Glitterglambaby19]

Hearing you say “our girls” is crazy!! Literally have a little family ❤

[@chickensarecool01]

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!

[@Christinaruthpascoe90]

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

[@owen5903]

My Great Grandma was called Eira [pronounced Eye-Ra] which is a sweet winter name meaning Snow in Welsh 😊

[@amylou7317]

Christmas baby needs a festive name, Noelle Super cute. Ottie and Elle

[@faithcamp23]

I would love to see some of the process of the new baby’s room, clothes, etc!

[@mrowka789]

This is giving 2015/2016 vibes all over again! I love love love seeing you two together just being yourselves 🥹

[@issylegg3809]

I love aurora - rori for short, Ottie and Rori sound cute together!

[@latenightgloommm]

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!!

[@FlorenceRyan]

Alfie I'm currently cycling across Africa! And whenever I have internet I love to catch up on your vides, so comforting!

[@mishi.adele.m]

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A 'HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW EACHOTHER' VIDEO!!!!!

[@zamanda9599]

Yeah an updated one would be sooo cool 🤗

[@nec.tarine]

So lovely to have a chatty sit down vlog, perfect for a relaxed sunday morning, watching in bed as i just woke up✨

[@annabellewild1452]

you did the boyfriend tag because that’s where ‘courgette’ was born!!

[@abigaileasthope7632]

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💓

[@casey4661]

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.

[@krustytoe6028]

I want to see more Joe and Ottie moments in the vlogs

[@SincerelyEva]

Would love to see you preparing the baby girl's room :)

[@valencialenton2220]

Ottilie and Ophelia are so cute together

[@jadekinsey]

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 😂😂😂😂❤❤

[@lifewithkelleym]

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

[@Regisslove]

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

[@xoIvon]

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. 😊

[@annikafritz2703]

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.

[@ameliasmith947]

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

[@IamMinnie90]

You should be proud of yourself for being such a fantastic father, Alfie. 👏🏽

[@deb1127]

hearing Zoe talk about Alfie picking up hobbies like litter has me dying. my partner is the exact same way so i can relate!!

[@lavinyamolukun4542]

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

[@Jodietylerhall]

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 😂

[@laurahalliday5943]

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

[@danufes]

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 💖

[@Jess-3]

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

[@ellielouisehirst]

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!

[@zoedcruz]

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 :)

[@abbie7685]

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

[@HayleyMitchell123]

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!

[@janecaley1194]

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!

[@lifewithkelleym]

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

[@martadisio6027]

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

[@georgiehakney7385]

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

[@aaroncardwell4228]

Also ‘willow’ is a gorgeous baby name

[@nina_allegra]

I like Olive and Ottilie (I like names with the same first letter for siblings) :)

[@TheAufschrei]

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 :)

[@rheabose5831]

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)

[@MissSeaworld8]

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!

[@alicejones7]

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!💕

[@AlissaMai]

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 :)

[@brandispry576]

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 🙏🏻💜🥰

[@saumyagupta1719]

I started watching you when I was 17 and now I am 27, tired and old watching these cosy videos

[@vicky_phipps]

I’ve been watching Zoe and Alfie’s videos since I was 16, I’m now 25 and I still love their videos so much 💕 This video made me so happy 🥰

[@NienkeMM]

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 😂

[@sophiesprague7726]

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

[@sophiegibbs8785]

Congratulations on the baby announcement 🥹🫶🏻 Ottie and Ophelia would be so cute together ❤

[@heavymetalbanshee]

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 KZbin and you created the trends. 😊

[@Herzpuzzle]

Name suggestion: Juniper. It has the same vibe as Ottilie and is Christmas related 🎄 And I think Ottie and Junie sound great together

[@Lilyrev]

I'm only about 15 mins into the video but I'm absolutely loving it. I love this style of video and the vibes are just amazing - the love you feel for each other just comes through the screen, it's amazing and lovely to watch! Hope you're both doing well!

[@aaroncardwell4228]

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 🤣

[@rengrimes]

I love how you guys "don't follow" the trends, I just love the videos and how real they are🥰

[@alebagg]

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 😁🤍

[@laurenokeeffe4059]

My daughter is called Melody and she’s given me permission to tell you it’s ok to use it. 😂😂😂😂

[@LoveRiha]

Absolutely love it when you and Zoe sit down to chat! Feel like the Vlog is a bit slower and chill that way💕

[@mariah013]

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!

[@glovescroissants]

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)!

[@laurenosborn4676]

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!

[@charlenep3224]

Hope there is a little animation at the beginning of the august vlogs like in vlogmas 😊

[@RedneckJessi]

I know yall aren't going vlogmas, but selfishly I'd love to a Christmas house decor vlog.

[@rebeccasalts1978]

It’s 3Am and Alfie Deyes posts a video…honestly PERFECT timing while I’m up with my kids 😅

[@LisaBolstridge-dw1jc]

How about the name Matilda? It’s got German origins like Ottilie. It’s nice shortened to Tillie too!

[@RambleFamily]

Really interesting to hear you talk about your approach to social media! I really agree with everything you said about needing to keep the passion and reason for creating alive. Definitely food for thought in a world where it feels hard to keep up with all the trends and algorithm. Thanks for sharing :)

[@LaceyDeane]

Loved this! Love that you're mostly on KZbin. The social media chat was my best bit of the video for me!

[@m_t3901]

We need more vlogs of the Golden Squad: Zoe Mark Alfie Sean Poppy

[@plussizemedium2913]

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!

[@vivipayne8072]

Hoping for Mark to come round for one of the august vlogs!

[@SmileGioky98]

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!

[@isharajput7066]

Soo soo happy for you guys! I have been here since the ‘Love and Valentine’s Day’ video days 🥲

[@djuptonful]

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.

[@heidi4299]

Please go to the garden centre/home sense with Mark, summer edition instead of Halloween/Xmas 😊

[@sigrid_solbakken]

Love these kind of videos! A silent watcher here 🤣🙋 Lots of love from Norway!

[@chasitymoore532]

I think autum deyes like ottie and autum deyes sounds nice

[@Paiis3ly]

That’s wild to think I have been watching the both of you since 2011! I literally never comment on either of your videos. But I love you both. And I agree, “growing up” with you guys has been amazing!

[@AphroditeD]

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 (❤) ...

[@mathilda12]

I love how in love Zoe and Alfie are!

[@diego_fe]

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 ❤️

[@danaturtles]

Please do more sit downs ❤loves this!

[@cara-yz8ol]

i really enjoyed this video❤please do this again! and also what zoe said about talking on the topic of what other avenue you guys could of gone down with your content, i would love to watch that xx

[@ainohakkola4761]

Noelle would be such a beautiful name! Also it’s so crazy to think that i’ve been watching and enjoying your content since i think 2013? And it feels like time has just flown by so fast

[@cindys1641]

I loved EVERYTHING about this vlog Allie and Zoe! It felt like a great catch-up with good friends. Especially loved your perspective on social media. Can’t wait for Vlogust! ❤

[@hxada3857]

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

[@agatawolanska3123]

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!

[@KirstyWright21]

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!

[@cathydashlynne]

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🇨🇦

[@Hope9ii]

Well you guys I grew up watching you so it feels like I’m part of the family now 😂🥹

[@serenafatimakazmi]

Aww Zoë you're glowing. Lovely to see you guys happy

[@BPorter95]

I'm named after Brighton, Wales. It's cool to watch you guys hang out at the beach and around town there.

[@maisiedp]

Sound like some other passions you share are authenticity and having a close community. It's really refreshing to see that on the internet :)

[@Sara33762]

waking up to you having uploaded a vlog just made my day! today's gonna be so good 😊

[@aniqah75]

I love these kind of sit down videos, could watch them for hours honestly haha

[@DANTL141]

I really enjoyed this video! you guys seem open and honest. All the best!

[@katiewilkinson5882]

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

[@emilypersons5718]

You’ve got to come to Canada! We grew up travelling across the country in a motorhome, the best memories! ❤

[@zsofiagyalai5639]

I got dissapointed over the years in so many youtubers but never in you guys. Maybe because me and my husband I think are quite similar to you in temperaments and also at the same season of life, actually our 2nd daughter is already 5 months old. I love your slow simple everyday vlogs and your genuinity
