We found out yesterday that baby is a boy which we are very happy about but can we agree on names? NO!
We already have a daughter called Scarlett and a son called Flynn and our surname is C r o m p ton.
Names I/he/we like but can't agree on or can't use are:
Ellis - I love, hubby doesn't
Leighton - doesn't work with our surname
Dexter - He loves, I don't
Elijah - He likes, I don't
Archie - too popular and our daughter doesn't like it
Blake - both quite like but not enough
Frazer - as above

Trying to find a name that isn't too popular and we both have worked in schools our whole careers so have been put off a lot of names. Names we can't use are:
Oliver, Elliot, Jacob, Nathaniel, Tobias, Cameron, Euan, Logan, Isaac, Noah, Leon, Liam, Bruce, Ryan, Lucas, Alfie, Thomas and Luke

Any suggestions gratefully received, thank you

I like Blake from your list. Sounds good with your surname. My 6yo insists it sounds like a girl's name though. Grin

I love your DC names. I have a Scarlett too, so am biased.

What about Rowan or Jasper?
