I have just found myself pregnant with a 2nd child after a long gap. Our son is nearly 13. All the names that were on our list then either feel dated or have been used by friends and family in the years since.
Our son is Ethan William. please help
thanks in advance xxx

thanks for all the suggestions. No idea if it is a boy or a girl yet. Had 12 week scan on Tuesday and that was the first time I actually believed it was real. still in shock really. We gave up trying for a 2nd about 5 years ago so definitely an unexpected surprise!!

I like Rafferty but can't use as is name of my godson
Rudy, Dexter, Caleb and Noah are definitely going on the list for boys Thankyou
Imogen, Mabel, Mia and Molly for the girls list. Thank you so much for all your help. keep the suggestions coming. Im trying to put together a list to put to my partner haha xxx
