Notes: I took everyone that responded in account, and I tried my best to name them accordingly.

ROSE

Theta took our little girl over to a table, examining her with medical instruments. I watch for a bit then turn my attention to my little boy. He blinks up at me, his soft brown eyes large and wondering.

"Hello." I whisper. I kiss his nose and he sneezes. What a sweet little angel! He decides then to snuggle in and sleep.

"So...what are we naming them?" Jack wonders. I look up at him, expecting him to reel off names that go with 'Jack'. When he didn't I decide its safe to speak,

"Um...well...we were thinking Theta Micheal or Delta Rose."

Jack wrinkles his nose.

"What?" I frown. Theta and I thought they were perfect; we could use the first names at home, and the second when we were at Mum's.

"Well...where's JACK!" He whines. Ohhhhhh. He actually wants us to name one of them after him? Have to admit it, we did think about it, but what if we had more children? This is what I ask Jack, mostly because I don't want him to have bruised feelings.

"But what if we have another child? We could name him or her after you." I thought this was very reasonable, but Jack, being the wonderful man he is, pretends to think for a moment, then nods. And then has the nerve to say, "That would work...but what if you don't have any more children?"

Theta makes an irritated, amused and tolerating sound. Jack glares at Theta's back then grins. "Delta Jaklyn Rose. Theta Jakob Micheal...Theta Jackson Micheal? Theta Micheal Jake..."

"No." Theta dissects flatly without turning around.

"Why not? Jacklyn for Jackie, Jakob for me." Jack looks pleased with himself - and why didn't Theta and I think of that?

I laugh. "Why not, Theta?" I know why not, but hey, if Jack is serious about this we won't turn him off the idea. And if we don't listen, we will never hear the end of it.

Great. That's all we need, sixteen years down the road, and Jack's still needling about the names.

"Yeah, why not?" Jack whinges. "I mean, you won't let me name them after me for the first name, but whats the second or third?"

Theta groans. He's getting angry annoyed, not tolerated annoyed.

"She wants to be named Jacklyn!" Jack insists, sensing Theta's going to break soon.

"She is not going to be named Jacklyn!" Theta huffs.

'She' starts to cry. Theta sighs in defeat. "Alright, alright...Delta Rose Jacklyn. Delta Jacklyn Rose? Rose!" He was whining at me now.

"I think Jacklyn Rose would be nice..." I offer. I thought I was being reasonable, but,

"But what about Delta?" Theta wonders. Men.

"Alright, Delta Jacklyn Rose." I give in.

"I'm happy with it." Jack grins. I stifle a giggle. To think he was the father, not the Doctor.

"But Jacklyn?" Theta whines. "It doesn't go with 'Delta'." To this, our darling baby girl lets out a stinky fluff.

"Oh, and Rose does?" I point out as Theta gags. "How about Delta Chione Rose Jacklyn?"

"Perfect." Theta coughs.

"Glad you an' me arn't over there." Jack whispers. Theta mumbles something and brings Delta over to me, much to the dismay of Jack.

"Swap?" Theta is pouting now, though if it's because he got the full blast of a stinky little girl or because of the name, I can't tell. I give him our son. And my husband is once again happy.

Delta sniffs then reaches for Jack. Well! I hand her over with slight bruised feelings. She blinks, looks at me, looks up at Jack, then just frowns.

"Theta...we are naming him Theta...right?" Theta asks, uncertain.

"Yes, dear." I smile.

"King of Queens." Jack quips. I give him a confused look but Theta laughs. Delta perks up, and reaches for me. That's better. Wanting to hug her uncle and not her mummy, that's just wrong.

Jack hands her over and muses, "You don't watch American TV, do you?"

"Why would I?" I ask softly, a little busy with my baby. Who is following her brother in sleep.

"Never mind." Jack's voice says he is rolling his eyes. "Theta Jack Micheal."

"NO." Theta the Stubborn.

"Theta Micheal Jack?"

"Jack Harkness!"

"Erm...Theta Micheal Jack Harkness isn't really what I wanted..."

Theta groans. I look up at Jack and he winks at me. "How about Jack Theta Jack?"

I bite my lip to keep form laughing. "Theta Peter?" I voice. "Theta Peter Jakob?"

"Works for me." Jack nods. Theta glances back.

"Do I get any say in this?" He wonders.

"Yes, but your not really being forth-coming, are you?" I ask. Theta sighs and goes about what ever he is doing. Then,

"We decided on the names, though, didn't we?"

"Yes, but-"

"Okay. You want Jakob in the name?"

"Or Jack...or Jake..." Jack nods vigorously.

"Jake Theta Peter..." Theta mutters, "Theta Jake Peter. Theta Peter Jake..." He mumbles something.

"How about just Theta Jack?" This time Jack is serious. Theta glanced back and muses,

"We'd get him mixed up with us, though. We'd yell for Jack or Theta...and then what? Theta Micheal Jake Peter."

"Theta Micheal Jake Peter." I repeat.

"And Jake for short."

Jack Harkness, you just don't give up, do you?

JACK

The Doctor took Jaklyn over to a table, making sure her hearts are healthy, ect ect. She kicks a little bit, sending the sonic screwdriver flying. The Doc catches it as Rose whispers,

"Hello." Their son sneezes in response.

"So...what are we naming them?" I ask, wondering if 'Jack' came into the picture, or if the names would go good with Jack. Rose looks up at me, and she waited for something. When she didn't get it, she starts to speak,

"Um...well...we were thinking Theta Micheal or Delta Rose."

I try not to show my disdain, but my nose wrinkles without my permission.

"What?" Rose frowns. The names are good, I suppose...though if I had children, they'd be named after my friends.

"Well...where's JACK!" I remind her, a little more forceful then I intended.

"But what if we have another child? We could name him or her after you." Rose says in a 'be reasonable' voice.

I think for a moment. It is true, they can name the next one after me. I nod then a thought strikes me. "That would work...but what if you don't have any more children?"

The Doc makes an irritated, amused and tolerating sound. I glare at his back then grin. "Delta Jaklyn Rose. Theta Jakob Micheal...Theta Jackson Micheal? Theta Micheal Jake..."

"No." The Doctor dissects flatly without turning around.

"Why not? Jacklyn for Jackie, Jakob for me." I think this is perfect - and why the hell did they not think of that?

Rose laughs. "Why not, Theta?"

"Yeah, why not?" I press. "I mean, you won't let me name them after me for the first name, but whats the second or third?"

The Doctor groans in his 'I'm going to really get angry and then I'll give in' groan.

"She wants to be named Jacklyn!" I insist.

"She is not going to be named Jacklyn!" The Doc huffs.

'She' starts to cry. The Doctor sighs in defeat. "Alright, alright...Delta Rose Jacklyn. Delta Jacklyn Rose? Rose!" He is whining to his wife, something I honestly thought I would never see the Doctor do. Demand, confuse you, but not whine.

"I think Jacklyn Rose would be nice..." Rose is using her 'reasonable' voice again.

"But what about Delta?" The Doctor wonders.

"Alright, Delta Jacklyn Rose." Rose was getting impatient.

"I'm happy with it." I declare.

"But Jacklyn?" The Doctor whines. "It doesn't go with 'Delta'." To this, Delta replies with a fart that I can smell even over here.

"Oh, and Rose does?" Rose points out, oblivious to the Doctor gagging. "How about Delta Chione Rose Jacklyn?"

"Perfect." The Doctor coughs.

"Glad you an' me arn't over there." I whisper. The Doc mumbles something and brings Delta over to Rose. Ugg. The little runt brought the stink with her.

"Swap?" The Doc pouts, handing over Delta in exchange for her brother. He's grinning again.

Delta sniffs then reaches for me. Rose hands her over with a slight hurt look. Delta, your mom would like to hug you, you know! She blinks, looks at her mother, looks up to me, then just frowns.

"Theta...we are naming him Theta...right?" The Doctor asks, uncertain.

"Yes, dear." Rose smiles.

"King of Queens." I couldn't help myself. Rose shoots me a confused look but Theta laughs. Delta perks up, and reaches for Rose. I hand her over and question, "You don't watch American TV, do you?"

"Why would I?" Rose asks softly, too busy with her baby.

"Never mind." I roll my eyes. "Theta Jack Micheal."

"NO." The Doctor demands.

"Theta Micheal Jack?" I press.

"Jack Harkness!" The Doc growls.

"Erm...Theta Micheal Jack Harkness isn't really what I wanted..." I trailed off.

Theta groans. I wink at Rose. "How about Jack Theta Jack?"

She bites her lip to keep her laughter inside. "Theta Peter?" She wonders. "Theta Peter Jakob?"

"Works for me." I nod. Theta glances back.

"Do I get any say in this?" He wonders angrily.

"Yes, but your not really being forth-coming, are you?" Rose points out. Theta sighs and checks his son's bloodstream. Then,

"We decided on the names, though, didn't we?"

"Yes, but-"

"Okay. You want Jakob in the name?"

"Or Jack...or Jake..." I nod quickly.

"Jake Theta Peter..." Theta mutters, "Theta Jake Peter. Theta Peter Jake..." He mumbles something really rude in Russian.

"How about just Theta Jack?" I wonder seriously. The Doctor glances back and deflates my idea,

"We'd get him mixed up with us, though. We'd yell for Jack or Theta...and then what? Theta Micheal Jake Peter."

"Theta Micheal Jake Peter." Rose echoes.

"And Jake for short." I agree, stupidly happy that my name got in.

THETA

I bring the eldest of the two over to an examining table, intent on making sure her body has no ill effects from being a cross-breed. Strictly speaking, different species don't inter-breed, ya'know. Not only is it against most cultures society structures, its dangerous.

I place her on the table. With a little gurgle, she kicks my sonic screwdriver away. I catch it and joke,

"Little monster." She blinks up at me innocently. I tuck my screwdriver into my coat, then pick up a scanner. She yawns.

"So...what are we naming them?" Jack asks. There is a pause, and I know Rose is thinking the same thing I am: Here come all the names that go with 'Jack'. After a bit Rose speaks,

"Um...well...we were thinking Theta Micheal or Delta Rose." A few more moments of quietness. "What?" Rose asks. Here it comes...

"Well...where's JACK!" My friend confirms what I was expecting. Delta giggles.

"But what if we have another child? We could name him or her after you." Rose tries to negotiate. Another brief moment of silence, and then Jack wonders, "That would work...but what if you don't have any more children?"

Delta blinks up at me as if to say, 'Yeah, what if?' Who's side are you on, you little monster?

I feel Jack's glare on my back. With a slight smirk in his voice, he says, "Delta Jaklyn Rose. Theta Jakob Micheal...Theta Jackson Micheal? Theta Micheal Jake..."

"No," I spat. Delta frowns and kicks alittle.

"Why not? Jacklyn for Jackie, Jakob for me." Jack sounds very pleased with himself. Perhaps...no! I'm not naming BOTH of them after the same person.

Rose laughs. "Why not, Theta?"

"Yeah, why not?" Jack repeats. "I mean, you won't let me name them after me for the first name, but whats the second or third?"

I groan, only to realise that is a mistake as I only groan that way when I'm going to give in. Delta claps her hands.

"She wants to be named Jacklyn!" Jack insists.

"She is not going to be named Jacklyn!" I know I have gone to far when Delta starts to cry. I sigh in defeat, soothing my daughter before she is convinced my anger was aimed at her. "Alright, alright...Delta Rose Jacklyn. Delta Jacklyn Rose? Rose!" I actually whined the last word.

"I think Jacklyn Rose would be nice..." Rose offers.

"But what about Delta?" I grumble. After all, we already named them. We had the names before they were born!

"Alright, Delta Jacklyn Rose." Rose was getting impatient.

"I'm happy with it." Jack must have that smug look plastered over his face.

"But Jacklyn?" I whine. "It doesn't go with 'Delta'." Delta's face goes off, and then she's fluffing a fluff so bad that even the gaseous TY'Heth wouldn't stand it. And they're made of the stuff.

"Oh, and Rose does?" Rose points out, not caring I'm dying via baby stink."How about Delta Chione Rose Jacklyn?"

"Perfect." I squeak out.

"Glad you an' me arn't over there." Jack whispers. I mutter about getting a gas mask.

"Swap?" I hand over Delta to her mother, picking up Theta in return. He wakes up a little and gives me a sleepy smile before going back into dreamland. Who knew being a father would feel this good?

I almost skip back to the examination table.

"Theta...we are naming him Theta...right?" I ask, almost fearing the answer. Theta Micheal woke up with a start, peering at the scanner that is now above his head. His face screws up, but before he can start bawling I send him comforting emotions. He quiets down then decides he wants to see how the scanner feels.

Runt. I'm trying to work.

"Yes, dear." Rose is smiling, I can feel it.

"King of Queens." Jack replies and I laugh. Rose must of gave him a confused look because the next thing Jack says is this, "You don't watch American TV, do you?"

"Why would I?" Rose asks so softly I barely hear her.

"Never mind...Theta Jack Micheal."

That man just doesn't give up. "NO." I command.

"Theta Micheal Jack?" Jack, I'm warning you...

"Jack Harkness!" I growl. Theta Micheal kicks a little.

"Erm...Theta Micheal Jack Harkness isn't really what I wanted..." he trails off. I groan. "How about Jack Theta Jack?"

"Theta Peter?" Rose wonders with slight laughter in her voice. "Theta Peter Jakob?"

"Works for me." Jack agrees. I glance back, asking angrily,

"Do I get any say in this?"

"Yes, but your not really being forth-coming, are you?" Rose points out. I sigh and check my son's bloodstream. Then,

"We decided on the names, though, didn't we?"

"Yes, but-" I cut off my wife with a, "Okay. You want Jakob in the name?"

"Or Jack...or Jake..." Jack interjects.

"Jake Theta Peter..." I mutter, "Theta Jake Peter. Theta Peter Jake..." I mumble something very rude in Russian, aimed at the one and only Jack Harkness.

"How about just Theta Jack?" Jack wonders, this time with no teasing. Perhaps naming both of them after Jack isn't that bad...after all, until he came to the TARDIS, Jack had no family... I glance back and reject,

"We'd get him mixed up with us, though. We'd yell for Jack or Theta...and then what? Theta Micheal Jake Peter."

"Theta Micheal Jake Peter." Rose echoes.

"And Jake for short." Jack says happily. I never would of thought naming our child after him would make him happy...he really has changed from the man we picked up.

But I'm not naming the next child after him - I don't care if he whines till the end of eternity.
