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 :)

Personally I think of Corin as a girls name, sorry! Felix or Bruno gt my vote. And congratulations!

AlmaMartyr · 27/11/2011 13:28

Corin is a fab name . Agree you can't have Bay as a middle name. I love Cassian, is gorgeous, sorry your DP vetoed. Corin Felix is a nice combination.

tbh we don't really share the same taste in names OP, but I would go for Felix or Bruno out of the ones you've mentioned. Congratulations, I'm sure your new little DS is gorgeous!

Agree that you can't have Bay as a middle name - to resort-y! So I would choose Finton Cassius or Corin Felix ... or any of the others really!

ceeceeanne · 27/11/2011 07:59

Cassius Finton is brilliant!

TooManyBlossoms · 27/11/2011 00:12

Corin - as it's my name (obv the female version Smile.) Congratulations!

MelinaM · 26/11/2011 23:44

Bay or Corin, both lovely names! ...and congratulations to the new family on your new bundleSmile

I think what they sound like with your surname is more important. You probably wont run around shouting Cassius Bay but you will Cassius Smith. Eg. my surname ball got rid of Billy Ball, William (Willy) Ball, Hannah Ball & Lottie for fear of Lottery Ball!!
Congrats too, my vote is Cassius Bay Great sounding name!

openerofjars · 26/11/2011 22:54

Cassius Bay maybe a bit too similar to Cassius Clay!

Congratulations, btw Thanks

Love love love Corin Bruno, fwiw

"Oooh Cassius Bay. That's a great name."

Where's that? I agree with Gwendoline, you can't have Bay as a middle name. It sounds like a holiday destination. I'm not keen on Bay as a first name either. What would you have as a middle name? Leaf, tarragon, parsley?

scarlettlips · 26/11/2011 22:49

Veggie Big Congratulations.

Bruno....brilliant name, do it.

FoxyRevenger · 26/11/2011 22:47

Oooh Cassius Bay. That's a great name.

Oooh I like Cassian, DH has vetoed for being 'too frilly' though :(

Bay Finton is my fave combo, but I definitely think Cassius goes best with your other DCs names. Congrats!

LaTristesse · 26/11/2011 21:04

Corin is gorge, do it! If not how about Cassian?

mybootsaremuddy · 26/11/2011 20:34

Congrats. Corin Felix is gorgeous Love Cassius as well.

Meglet · 26/11/2011 20:25

Bruno, pleeeeeeeasseeee! It's the top of my boys name list but I can't have any more dc's. It's adorable.

DD was going to be Bruno if she was a boy, but she wasn't.

tummytickler · 26/11/2011 20:23

Defo Corin Felix. Lovely!
Congratulations x

GwendolineMaryLacey · 26/11/2011 20:22

You can't have Bay as a middle name because it'll turn your first name into a seaside resort. :)

randommoment · 26/11/2011 19:59

Definitely Corin out of your list. Lovely. Congratulations. xx

DigOfTheChristmasTreeStump · 26/11/2011 19:56

Corin felix and congrats

GwendolineMaryLacey · 26/11/2011 19:52

Love Corin, it's gorgeous.

Congratulations! :)

picnicbasketcase · 26/11/2011 19:49

Same vote as your previous thread - Corin!

PotteringAlong · 26/11/2011 19:48

Another vote for Cassius or Felix here! Congratulations!
