DS2, a brother for Benjamin (who is never Ben!), is due in a few weeks. We have the following shortlist, and I'm not necessarily looking to get it down to one name before he arrives, but would be interested to know how these names are perceived - what do you think these names say about their owners (if anything)? I want DS to have a good, solid (but hopefully not boring) name that won't limit his options in life, and in particular I am keen to avoid a "fashion" name that we might regret in a few years:
Christopher (not shortened)
Kit (Christopher, shortened)
Magnus
Jude (love, but have concerns over this being a 'now' name)
Peter
George
Thank you.
