Hubbie and I are locked in debate. He LOVES the name Louis, I like it but am not 'in love' with that name. We both kind of like Eddie, and I am beginning to really like Arthur.
what do you think Mners? please help!
he would be --- Lake, little brother to Amelie.

I love Louis - a top contender for next DS. Think Arthur is lovely too but Eddie very boring.

rubyslippers · 12/01/2009 15:55

Eddie is fab as is Louis

not mad on Arthur ...

Pollyanna · 12/01/2009 15:57

I have an Edward, and really like Arthur (maybe for the next one...)

I liked Louis but have a close friend with a Louie so couldnt use it.
I have a Teddy (much prefer to Eddie) and if I had another I'd choose Arthur

so I like all 3

colette · 12/01/2009 15:58

Louis definitely

thumbwitch · 12/01/2009 16:00

Loo Lake - not happy with that!
Eddie or Arthur better.

LightShinesInTheDarkness · 12/01/2009 16:05

I agree that Loo-ee Lake is not great. Is Lewis an option?

CrushWithEyeliner · 12/01/2009 16:12

I love Louis but with Lake is not good at all.

Arthur is nice

SoLongMarianne · 12/01/2009 16:15

Louis Lake is a bit too L dominated, mayhap?
Arthur Lake is lovely

Tommy · 12/01/2009 16:15

I like Louis best out of them but think that Amelie and Louis is a bit of a mouthful TBH

Nancy66 · 12/01/2009 17:54

Louis doesn't sound right with Lake - Eddie and Arthur do though. Arthur woul be my favourite.

bluebump · 12/01/2009 17:55

I love Eddie

chancelloroftheexCHEQUERS · 12/01/2009 17:56

Teddy.

slayerette · 12/01/2009 17:57

I have a kitten called Arthur...

mrsjuan · 12/01/2009 17:58

Eddie Eddie Eddie!
I love the name & wanted to use it if we were having a boy (which we're not)
Loads you can do with Edward - Ed, Ted, Teddy, Eddie etc.
I like Louis too but can't use it myself as it was the name of one of my ex boyfriends. It doesn't go too well with Lake either.
Not as keen on Arthur but it's a perfectly acceptable name x

Love Louis, but def not with Lake.
Edward Lake sounds great though as does Teddy Lake or Eddie Lake- go the full name though as it is so much more dignified.
Arthur Lake sounds like a retirement village.

maretta · 12/01/2009 20:00

Arthur best, then eddie

JohnnyTwoHats · 12/01/2009 20:03

Louis.
