woo Miles is my DS! just sneaked that in there.

it is a normal enough name but not used much. our local registrar had never had one in lots of years. :-)

your criteria sound similar to mine!

Hey Clueless, I am in the same boat, DC3 is due soon, we have lots of girls names but stillno boys name that jumps out...this is the long list,but I still haven't found the one and I already have a Jude:

Atticus
Rudy
Gene
Inigo
Theo
serren
monty
sol
Finian
Inaki
Dashiell
Soren
Tadgh
phaddeus
bosco

Spike
Sol 
Max

Brady
Dillon
Camron
Tyler
Arthur
Albert
Jude
Luke
Elias

Obviously, the choice of name depends on your origin / cultural / religious background, etc....

Have exactly the same problem! Lots of girls names i like,but not so many boys.. Find im less inclined to go with more unusual,out there names for boys and tend to stick to slightly more traditional ones. Think girls can pull unusual names off a bit easier! But would still like something a bit different for a boy so its difficult.. Have a billy already so has to go with that too. Names i like for a boy, max,maxwell.. Teddy,ted.. Lucas or luca, also quite like theo or leon. Good luck! X

River
Somerby
Blake
Jonas
Willem

Oren

Having same problem with six weeks to go!

Chester
Emerson
Otto
Kingsley
Arthur

Kester
Christy
Kit (I would use all of the above as a nn for Christopher, as I rather like a 'sunday name' on the birth cert.)

Rafael
Xavier
Jerome nn Jem
Macsen (Welsh, but I think would be fine in England, pronounced just as it looks)

I'm stuck too... he will be here in 5 weeks and no names are really sticking. Somehow you can be more 'frivolous' with girls names than with boys.

Also for me the nice ones have been taken - we already have a Quentin, Xavier, Andrew, James and William in the close family so those are out.

I have a secret weakness for funny ancient names like Anselm, Prosper, Athanasius, Cassiel, and Balthazar - but I think those will have to be second names, no? Would an Anselm survive the first day of school?

And I have a prejudice against trendy Biblical names like Josh, Nat, Zach, Elijah, Jake, Ben, etc. You know that indie band "Suburban Kids with Biblical Names"? Yeah, that.

So we will probably have a shortlist ready for when he is born, and then hopefully he will help us by being so very obviously a " " . I think you get about 3 weeks before you have to register a name? So within 3 weeks he needs to display a strong personality!

I think Balthazar is lovely, nickname Baz or Bazzy.

I like

Alexander nn Xander
Reuben
Zachary
Joesph

I work with children and have heard some fairly unusual names lol! How about ...

Tempest
Cuthbert
Aston
Merlin
Rainen
Ryden
Quinley
Quinn

Hope these help!

Balthazar is delightful StephA!!! You should definitely, absolutely, simply must use it Balthy is another possible nn ..plus there are very few Balthazar's about! x

Some lovely names on this thread. I particularly like

Quentin (Quinn)
Sebastian (Seb)
Xavier (Xav)
Tobias (Toby)
Lucian

Anton
Ashton
Brady
Bradford
Desmon
Dimitri
Dillon
Emmanuel
Edmund
Elliot
Camron
Maximillian
Serafim
Serge
Travis
Tyler
Theodore

Thanks for the Balthazar approval!! - I might have another go at convincing my partner to go for it!

Our DS is Rory
it's the anglicised version of a gaelic name
means red king and brave
not in top 100 but still a known name iyswim

I chickened out on Balthazar, unfortunately. We were quite close to calling him Magnus, but that name seemed so huge and massive for such a little wee thing. We dithered for days about it - I had hoped that when he was born it would somehow become obvious what he should be called, but it didn't. So we went with Matthew, instead, which was one we'd sort of both liked during our endless discussions. I didn't realise it would be so hard to choose a name! It is SUCH a big responsibility.

Loving all these boys names. I'm expecting DS3 and it's so hard to choose a third boys name. We have Lucas and Toby already. Here are lots of other names I like but for whatever reason we probably won't use (I think we'll probably go for the super popular Jack!):
Noah
Jonah
Isaac
Seth
Rex
Caspar
Jasper
William
Oscar
Henry
Peter
Dillon
Joseph
Arthur
Alex
Frank
Edward
Eric
Hector
Patrick
Laurence
