Yesterday morning DS2 made his appearance into the world and he is completely gorgeous :o However we do need an equally gorgeous name for him! So far we were thinking either Corin, Bay or Bruno with possible middle names Felix, Finton or Cassius (or they could be first names Hmm)...
Or something completely different? Suggestions of similar names would be great, we really don't have the energy to be trawling through name books! Oh and it has to go with first two DC Jeremiah Henry and Saskia Austen :)

I think it's nice. Congrats on your new baby! :)

Yay! I fought hard for 'Bay' for ds2 but dh wasn't keen. I love it. Unusual, understated and timeless. Reminds me of the sea or a shiney brown horse; what's not to like!

Congratulations OP!

Bay Cassius is fab.

MelinaM · 01/12/2011 01:14

Oh dear. Well prepare yourself for playground teasing and parental scorn. I mean, really. Why would you look at that tiny beautiful little thing and set them up for that........

brandysoakedbitch · 30/11/2011 19:41

Bay Cassius is lovely

Kayzr · 30/11/2011 19:38

I love Corin Felix. It's great!

tomorrow we are registering the birth and have finally decided on the name Bay Cassius. I really hope it's the right choice and I won't be back on here next week whinging asking advice as to whether we've made a mistake!

Cassius or Bruno - lovely.

Congrats by the way Smile

Corin Redgrave the actor.

I think it's OK, not very different from Colin but much less frequently encountered.

I once knew a Corinne, but she was pronounced the same way, equal stress on both syllables.

GwendolineMaryLacedwithBrandy · 29/11/2011 11:37

Yes, CO-rin as opposed to Co-RINNE

mayanna123 · 29/11/2011 11:02

The girls' name is Corinne. The emphasis is on 'INNE'.

I like Corin and Bruno very much.

marmiteandjam · 29/11/2011 10:14

I thought Corin was a girls name

pinkytheshrunkenhead · 29/11/2011 09:47

Cassius Bay for sure

MrsMigginslovespies · 29/11/2011 09:43

My little nephew is Bruno and it's a great name! Go for it! Congratulations!

I think we'll stay away from Bay Leif :o

Bay? Would you really do that?

pranma · 27/11/2011 21:55

I like Corin-Bay reminds me of Kirstie Allsopp
I suppose he could be Bay Leif :)

DigOfTheChristmasTreeStump · 27/11/2011 21:43

Can I offer you Carrick or Callan?

Thanks for the response! I think we've sort of narrowed it down to Corin or Bay but tbh nothing is just 'clicking'. If he had been a girl however he would have been Camilla Beatrice :)
