Just wondering what people think of the name Henry. We made the fatal mistake of mentioning it to mil and she said 'Oh well if you like it' and her face was a classic you've got to be joking, I'm waiting for the punchline kind of face. Is it that bad??? We love it and it seems to fit with Joseph quite nicely who will be the other DT.

Love the name Henry. Goes nicely with Joseph too.

Perfectly decent name. Don't like it personally but that's mainly because ds2 has recently been targetted by a Henry and was being bitten quite badly two or three times a week at pre school. They did their best but this little Henry was a real problem.

Lovely-classic and solid.

I liked Noah and I also liked Ruben (Ben for short) and Tobias (Toby for short) but DH wasn't up for any of those.

I am a themey sort of person so that's why, it is 'tidy' and makes sense - I'ma bit querky like that !

Thank you both. I am a bit reluctant to use another biblical name as I am conscious of 'theming' them with them being twins. I want to give them the chance to be as individual as possible. Although that said, I do love the name Noah! But DH said Noooo!

I have one! My Nan told me, many years after he was born and named, that when I told everyone what he was going to be called she though it was a be 'hooray' ish! Then she told me that actually she thought it quite suited him.

If I had Joseph as a name though I think I'd be looking for another 'biblical' name, but that's just me! :o
