Down to the final two options - help me choose!

[TashaD80]

So after much obsessing and lying awake at 3am with names circulating in a cloud above my head, we're down to the final two options. If we have a 2nd son we may well go with the 2nd option, but right now I want to pick just the one. Which do you think sounds better and what overall impression do you have of each?

Otis Fox Davey

or

Archer Grey Davey (nn. Archie)

:)

[Thumbnutstwitchingonanopenfire]

Archer Grey Davey.

[wadjet78]

Archer Grey Davey

[Ratbagcatbag]

Archer grey davey (that's awesome by the way)

[petitdonkey]

Otis (but personally prefer Grey as middle name with it. I really like Fox but think Otis Grey Davey rolls better)

Archer is very cool but, I guess from your preferences that you would like something a little different from the norm and I think that the prevalence of Archie will annoy you.

[spinduchess]

Archer. Otis is an aardvark.

[Deerhound]

I'm not overly keen on either but he's your baby so call him whichever name you love! I think you should just wait till he comes out and see if he looks like an Otis or N Archer.. Not very helpful I know!

[Deerhound]

N = an

[almapudden]

Otis, definitely. Archer reminds me of the alcoholic drink!

[clareypie]

Otis Fox. We are thinking of Fox as a middle name too. (Hope that doesn't put you off!)

[GoldfishSpy]

Archer is lovely.

[VainVulva]

Oh wow they are both pretty darn brilliant. I'm not much help really as I can't decide.

The only change I would make would be Fox as a middle name for both

Archer Fox or Otis Fox.......I think maybe Otis, as Archer may be misheard as Arthur plus the nn Archie ruins it a bit!

[VainVulva]

Can I be really nosey and ask what your girl choices are?

[HoHonutty]

Otis Fox.

Too many Archies.

[ralinax294]

Archer Grey.

[fuctifino]

Otis

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Archer.

As said upthread, Otis is an aardvark.

[itssangriaoclock]

Otis fox or Otis grey

Or Grayson fox davey. That would be my choice x

[itssangriaoclock]

Too many Archie's even if he was an archer

[burgatroyd]

Otis.

Have you considered Orson? Sounds like awesome!

[TheWildRumpyPumpus]

There really are a lot of Archie's out there at the nursery's, toddler groups and soft play areas I have the misfortune to frequent regularly!

So on that basis I'd go for Otis personally, maybe with Gray as a middle name.

[PenguinsandtheTantrumofDoom]

Otis.

Archer is quite cool, but Archie is waaaaay over used.

[MuttonCadet]

Archie Grey is lovely

[CountingThePennies]

Neither sorry. There are hundreds of great names to choose from which are 100% nicer than those two names

[CharlesRyder]

Grey Davey is too mistakable for gravey

Archer Fox Davey

[moxon]

Wait until he is there. And then wait another day after you decide before you tell anyone, in case you undecide. Or do the shouty test: you and your DP spend the day shouting random things about the boy to each other, and you'll soon find what you prefer! Eg 'can you change Otis' nappy please?!' or 'Archie forgot his effing PE kit again!' etc etc.
