So unfortunately we found out after our 20 weeks scan that our little boy has a heart abnormality. I won't go into details but it will mean open heart surgery within days of being born.

We really want to give him a strong, non ridiculous name as he will need to be a little fighter. Smile

Suggestions appreciated. We only have Max on our list so far.

I've always thought Caleb is a strong sounding name.
Flowers and good luck for your fighter's birth and op.

Hey bub Smile

Torin is nice, means chief, which is quite a strong meaning I think?

Louis means warrior.
I'm sure you've heard lots of similar things in real life but my friend's baby girl had heart surgery in her first few days. She's one now and doing really really well.
All the best.

Leo - "Lion".

Sending very many good wishes his way - hope all goes well and you'll be posting photos of his safe arrival/successful surgery on here in 20-odd weeks time.
