..or Marcus or Douglas?

We've decided on Tamsin Margaret if DC3 is a girl but completely stuck if a boy! We've narrowed it down to either Fraser Michael, Marcus Robert and Douglas Robert but can see flaws with each name.

We would love impartial advice - can you see anything obviously wrong with any and which is your favourite?

Flaws -

Douglas - Love nn Dougie but not sold on full name, can live with it though
Fraser - Don't think it sounds great with DCs' names
Marcus - A bit dull

However we have been really over thinking this so these minor things have been massively built up in my head to be pretty major!

Fraser Douglas would be better,

Fraser is my brother's name and I like it.

Fraser Michael is gorgeous - classic and underused.

CointreauVersial · 12/05/2012 22:28

Fraser is by far the nicest of the three names. Goes well with siblings too.

I find Marcus a bit of a poncy name.

Also other DC are Edward and Milly (Emilia).
