help us name our little boy??

[beckslovestimmy]

This is DS born yesterday. DH likes Reuben, I like Alec. Neither of us like the others choice so we need help to come up with something we can both agree on. Here he is...

[GlitteryFluff]

Joshua
Congratulations!

[Jessbow]

Timothy
Jethro
Lawrence
Sebastien

[CoffeeCoffeeAndLotsOfIt]

He's gorgeous. He looks like a Samuel to me.

[PotatoBread]

He's beautiful - congrats

I much prefer Alex to Alec. If you go with Alexander you'll have a choice of names such as Alex or Xander as another poster suggested.

He doesn't look like a Rueban!

Alexander Rueben and you can have Alex or Alec as a nickname. My husband is an Alexander and it's a fab name! I can't see him being called Rueben either - he would suit Benjamin more. He is so cute - congratulations!

Or:
Aidan
Christopher
Oliver
Thomas
Harry
Tobias (Toby)
Edward (Eddie)

[septembersunshine]

...but actually, second thoughts he does look like a Sam (Samuel) he looks like he needs a soft sounding name!

[kiki22]

How about James?

[Notsure1234]

Congratulations, he's gorgeous.

I think Samuel suits him. I also think he could be a Reuben.

[RedYellow046]

Sebastian, Joshua, Thomas, Edward?

[PicnicPie]

Lucas!

[ShebaQueen]

Thomas

Gorgeous! Historic day to be born you could always go with something historically political like Edward (Heath - who was pm when we joined the eu) or obviously Boris Nigel springs to mind if you're of the other camp huge congratulations, what a lovely thread amongst the many others sparked by events from yesterday, this surely has to be the best one! Hope it was a speedy happy delivery, and you're all doing well

[daisydalrymple]

Ps I do think he looks like a Reuben, and also like the Benjamin suggestion X

[1horatio]

Alexander, nn Alec/x (I personally prefer Alec) would be cute :)

I agree with a previous poster, Samuel would be really cute as well.
What about Samuel Alec nn Alec?

[BikeRunSki]

Amos

[Fletcherl]

Why not go with Heath then.

[Maverick66]

Xenon

[Maverick66]

Sorry that should be Zenon

[Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost]

He's gorgeous. I want him. Squeeeeeeeeee. .
He looks like a Michael

[BoboBunnyH0p]

An old work colleague had a DS yesterday too and called him Rueben so I think that name might suddenly be popular.
I suggest Lucien, Alexander, Theodore, or Nathaniel. Congratulations on your beautiful ds.

[strongswans]

I prefer Reuben out of yours. He's adorable, looks like a James or Thomas to me.

[Cineraria]

I could imagine him being called a short and unusual name. Emil, maybe or Jem (short forJeremiah/Jeremy).

[divafever99]

I have 2 dd's, but my names for a boy would have been:
Ben
Issac
Jack
Toby.
Congratulations op

[SingaSong12]

Congratulations- he's gorgeous
I like Thomas or Samuel
