Baby Boys Names

[NattyCraig]

I am currently 22 weeks pregnant with my first baby, we had loads of names we loved for a girl but none for a boy! (of course we are expecting a baby boy)

I love Harrison and quite like Ethan (surname is Craig)

What do people think?

I love names like Archie etc as well but they are getting increasingly common again now.

What have you picked for your baby boy?

I think both Harrison and Ethan sound great with Craig, although there are 4 Harrisons in DS2's class so I'm not sure if it's popular everywhere.

If we have a boy we are keen on Jeremy, James, Sebastian, Dominic :)

Harrison is awful apart from as a surname. Tacky. The others are fine though.

[NattyCraig]

Tacky? Never heard that before... I think names like Connor, Tyler, Daniel are tacky but liked Harrison as I haven't heard it used much. Plus as baby has a first name as a last name I think it works well.

[comedaygoday]

It's subjective. I agree with a previous poster that Harrison is tacky, but if you don't think it is and like it, then don't worry. FWIW I am surprised that you think Daniel is tacky, so our experiences of names seems different.

Ethan is nice, but I do know 5 pre-school Ethans so it's quite widely used here (W Mids).

I know 4 Ethans and 1 Harrison (who is really naughty).

I love Ethan.

Harrison is ok.

I don't like Archie at all.

What's tacky about Daniel btw? It's a classic name.

[NattyCraig]

I just think Daniel is a really chavvy name (especially where I live) all the Daniels I know of are tracksuit wearing, beer swilling, jobless louts... It just makes me think of tracksuits.

[lisaro]

Ah but in most other places those 'Daniels' tend to be the parents of Harrison.
I have to admit I've never met a Daniel like that though.

[WithACherryOnTop]

I suppose it does depend on the area.But to me a Daniel is an accountant,a lawyer,a banker,a manager,a doctor.He could be a mechanic, a salesman anything really. It's a very neutral name,at least imho.

Ethan and Harrison are both quite trendy where I live and there are loads of Archie, Alfies, so I'd go for something else if you don't want a name that's too common. But if you really like a name i'd say just go for it!

[tammytoby]

There are FAR too many little Archie/Alfies out there imo. I'd go for a more classic name that won't date.

I like Nathan, Ethan, Quentin, Tristan or how about Dominic?
