Changed name because sometimes DP reads my posts and it is essential that he thinks the name we choose is his idea.
Short list of names for DS-on-the-way, which DP and I can (or probably can :)) actually agree on (and can use - my faves already in our families or categorically vetoed by DP)
So we have
Sam (Samuel on birth certificate) - DP's favourite; I have decided it sounds stodgy
Luke (my favourite, but DP thinks it's too biblical, which we're not too keen on)
Lucas - DP likes it, but I worry that it's too trendy (surged in popularity in the US after George Lucas, now is popular elsewhere in English-speaking world)
Toby - my second-favourite but DP is not so keen; also think it could be a little boy's name and has to be short for Tobiah or Tobias (neither of which we like)
So which would you pick? (or why not)?
Sam (Samuel on birth certificate)
Lucas
Luke
Toby - on its own or longer birth certificate name; if so, what?
Thanks, O wise ones :)
