Sorry to be a bore, but I could really use some advice on choosing Boy's names. Hubby and I really like names that are traditional but a little bit unusual, something that can be changed / nicknamed if they so desire and nothing too chavvy. Our shortlist is:
Theodore (nn Theo or Ted). Love Theo and Ted, but not actually sure I really like Theodore - but Theo on its own seems a bit too informal?
Edwin (nn Ted / Ed). We quite like this, but have got quite a few negative comments. Is it too old man ish?
Jolyon (pronouned Jo-le-on), (nn Joe or Jon). I really like this but am concerned it is a bit girly and hubby not keen!
Haydn - I really like this, hubby not keen and is it becoming very popular?
Henry - I like but is it too common?
Zachary (nn Zac) again too common?
Also Like Eliott but feel that it is too similar to DD1 - Eloise.
Thanks for your help, and please feel free to suggest others.
Cheers xx
