I think Arthur is coming back in fashion. With Art for a nickname.
Iya my grandads name (he would be 105 now)

I don't think Arthur Andrew sounds good together, it doesn't flow nicely.

Arthur has been "back in fashion" for ages. I remember a little boy with that name being born around the same time as DD1, who is 17.

It's a lovely strong name.

(What is WYOO? Is that a typo, or an acronym I've never come across?)

Hmmm middle name is definitely stuck at Andrew. Any suggestions on other first names?

I honestly thought it was meant to be a Halloween type thing, like the noise a ghost would make. I need more sleep

Nobody really says or even knows most people's middle names. There's no way I'd change my choice of first name just because it doesn't flow PERFECTLY with the middle name (Arthur Andrew isn't even that bad).

People on here tend to play up the importance of middle names a little. I think the last time anybody said my first and middle name together was at my wedding 5 years ago.
