Harvey or Hunter?

[LALA77]

Our baby is due in 4 weeks time, if it's a girl she'll be Anna Noelle Reekie. Stuck between boys names, either Harvey James Reekie or Hunter James Reekie... thoughts please as Hunter is a "love it or hate it" name!

[cyteen]

Eek, neither, sorry.

[Jojay]

Harvey, not Hunter. No way.

[seeker]

Neither. Go for Henry.

[MavisEnderby]

Neither,sorry.

Go with wich one you prefer though

[seeker]

Just think about him being called "Harv"........

[JANEITEisntErudite]

Neither, sorry. How about Gabriel? Anna is lovely and classic.

[MrsBadger]

Neither if at all possible,

if you have no choice but to use one then use Harvey

If you thought 'Harv' was bad think what Hunter will be shortened to...

[dizzydixies]

sorry am not keen on either as well

[LALA77]

Well thanks for all your positive replies.

[CuppaTeaJanice]

Hunter = Gladiators

Harvey = Jordan's son

Any other options? The 2 syllables starting with H works well, just perhaps not those 2 particular names.

[needanameforboy]

I would choose Harvey out of those two names.

[sweetnitanitro]

Hunter is a gladiator, not a child. Harvey is OK but not sure that Harvey Reekie sounds good, too many E sounds. What about James Harvey Reekie instead?

[MavisEnderby]

Aww,Don't take it as a personal affront lala,names are a very individual thing nd go with the one you like.FWIW dd has a very popular name that many don't like but I love it.

Enjoy your new baby

(Ps I LOVE your girls name,Anna is a beautiful name)

[dizzydixies]

Lala - please don't be annoyed at the responses

according to the MN opinions my DD1 has a name thats too common, DD2 has a name thats 'chav' and DD3 has a name that should only be used for a boy

keep them both until he's here and choose whichever suits him best

[MilkNoSugarPlease]

Honestly...I love the name Hunter!

[MilkNoSugarPlease]

Honestly...I love the name Hunter!

[MilkNoSugarPlease]

Love it so much I had to say it twice

Hunter James is lovely

[dizzydixies]

although in saying that there was a producer/director or something who was the very last name in the credits on one of DH's programmes (I can't remember which) called Hunter Covington which I thought was a brilliant name

[malung]

I really like Hunter too

[feedthegoat]

I know a little boy called Hunter. It is not a name I would ever choose myself but it is his name and it suits him.

I suppose my point is that whatever you choose will suit your baby once everyone has got used to it so choose the name you like! The Hunter I know is a lovely little boy too, if that helps!

[CantSleepWontSleep]

Hunter is not a proper name.
Harvey is becoming more and more chav, but is the better of your two options.

[fiestabelle]

I love Hunter, not my usual style but think it sounds strong and is a real "boys" name, not keen on Harvey.

[skidoodle]

Neither name works with your surname.0
