Hi All,
I am having a little boy in 3 months time and we are nowhere near the point of having some names picked out. I am a teacher and most boys names remind me of a difficult or rude student so I can't bring myself to like any typical names. Our baby boy will be mixed race, white British and black African. I could choose an African name but my DH is against that because when he is older he doesn't want our baby boy to face the same predudice as he has when it comes to applying for positions etc. Unfortunately this does still happen in our society which is really sad but its really limiting names that I could choose. I have been on so many search engines and so many of the names (that I don't associate with pupils I have taught over the years) that come up sound too American.. Like Hunter, Chase or Cody etc. I really don't like the American names and I really want a name to suit our baby boy. There are a few African names I really like but my DH just won't back down.
Anyone else in this predicament or have any clue of lovely names they could suggest?
