Two weeks to go and no idea on a boy's name

Help!

I was deciding on my baby's name with his dad (we're not together) but now he's done a bunk with two weeks to go and it's all up to ME ME ME!! Grin

Trouble is, I have no idea what to call my forthcoming DS now.

I like more unusual/rock star names rather than bank manager names.

Here are some I considered earlier. Any suggestions gratefully received (have to go out for a bit but will return).

Chester
Dylan (too popular I think)
Elliot
Kingsley
Otto
Emerson

Tristan
Nathan
Eli

I like Emerson but had considered it for a girl? Don't know if it strictly matters though.

I agree, narrow it down to 2 or 3 then wait till you meet him!

Elliot is great.

Felix

Hmmm - considering it'll be Xmas Eve he might end up as Claus!

why not wait until you meet baby in person, then you can pick name to suit him.
makes it more fun, don't you think?

Native americans used to name baby after the 1st thing they saw afetr baby was born - just a suggestion....
