Can I have some opinions on my boys names...

Expecting DS3, we already have two sons called Samuel and Elliott, and so far our list is:

Connor
Nathaniel
Luca
Rory
Louis
Tristan
Aidan
Reuben

I love some opinions and I'm also open to suggestions but nothing too outlandish or any 'old man' names and has to be more than one syllable...

Reuben is my favourite & very nice with Samuel.

Really don't like Connor or Aiden, but the others are nice.

I love Luca.

I think Louis and Reuben "go best" with your other boys' names, if that's something that matters to you.

Personally, I'm not a fan of Tristan or Aidan and I only feel lukewarm about Nathaniel.

I like Connor and Rory (don't hear this one very much where I live!).

I think we like similar names. We're expecting a second boy, and Reuben and Rory are on our list too, love both of them. I hadn't thought of Tristan but like it so may suggest that to DH actually! DS1 is Benjamin, which I personally love if you want another suggestion.

Nathaniel is my favourite, not really keen on the others.

Connor is my fav. But I'm biased cause that's my ds name Grin also like Louis. Don't like Rory sounds like a dogs name sorry. And the others are ok

Love Rory, Louis and Tristan. Tristan especially sound good with your other names. I know of brothers called Elliott and Tristan.

Not keen on Connor or Luca at all.

I like all the others, Louis and Tristan are my favourites, Tristan is probably less used than Louis so I'd choose Tristan.

Reuben fits nicely, with your other names.

I agree with others that Reuben goes best with your other DS's names.
Strongly dislike Connor and Tristan.

Thanks guys, yes I do really like Reuben and I would say thats my front runner along with Louis. Tbh I do like Tristan but I am having second thoughts, it's a nice name but it is quite 'out there' for me personally..

RE Connor, it has been my favourite for a long time, although it does seem to be becoming dated which is my biggest concern.

I do like Benjamin but it is the name of one of my oldest friends so thats out. Flynn is nice as well...

I like Rory the best out of those.

And is it Lew-iss or Lew-ee that you like?

My favourites are Tristan, Louis and Nathaniel. Quite like Rory, too.
Are Felix and Rufus too out there for you? Or what about Robert or Andrew?
