Sorry, Tel, I did get confused. I think you should call one of them 'Blooming Marvellous'! ;D

I am pleased about "Blushing Brenda". I was thinking 5 or 8, or both, should be named after family members, because they look like the best two to me.
There is already a Dahlia called Pretty in Pink and one called Raspberry Ripple, but you could add a further name at the beginning of all your cultivars. Wasn't there a place name you suggested using a while back?

Now No 9 looks golden to me, so what about "Sunrise". Not "Sunset" which could mean it is going over.

Now I have the "Babe" theme song in my head...
"If I had words to make a day for you. I'd sing you a morning golden and true."

Have we named them all? Some have been named more than once, so there is a good choice and no hurry.

No 5 Pudsey (as in children in need) ;D I think No 5 has show potential as a small decorative. So will go along with Grindle, on Pudsey for this one. ;D This is a second year seedling so i have 4 tubers to take cuttings from next year. Pudsey all been well will be entered for the NDS dahlia trials at Leeds.

There is only one suggestion for No 3 that is sunset. Not sure about that for a pink bloom with a yellow base, what do you think?
