Ok, still struggling to settle on a name for ds3. This is about my fifth thread on the subject now!

We have a Dylan and a Miles..

We are now considering Travis Morgan

Surname starts with a D, 3 syllabils.

Opinions please!

Out of those I like Mason and Logan but I know 2 Logan's and my friends little boy is Mason

Of the 3 names I like Morgan best (have only known male Morgans and think it is a masculine-sounding name), but that's not helpful as you don't want another name beginning with "M"! Not keen on Harrison at all nor Travis (sounds like that's out now anyway).

I'm like Kveta with my favourite name choices (all considered boring on here - I prefer classic - ha ha!), but how about Mason, Jackson, Logan, Lorcan, Lachlan, Laird?? Sorry if these have already been mentioned!

Good luck!

No they won't! I won't let them!!

I like Morgan but I just can't commit to it as a first name. We already have an 'M' which is Miles and wanted a different letter..

Really like the name Morgan and its not one of the new trendy surname names, my great grandad was called Morgan and he was born in 1874! Personally I would go for Morgan Travis as I think "Morgan T D... " sounds really cool

Bletchley · 18/05/2012 15:09

Well they will if you call him Harrison !

That was the thing that held me back regarding Harrison when we first considered it. We really don't want people to call him Harry..

OP posts:

Janoschi · 18/05/2012 14:33

Travis is a cool name and I love Morgan too. Way more interesting than Harrison - just because he'll inevitably be called Harry and it's a very common name.

If you want my tuppence worth...

no it was my bad spelling!

OP posts:

Janoschi · 18/05/2012 12:16

Ooops. Mumsnet missed the previous messages out for a bit. Thought you were pointing out some bad spelling from my side!

Sorry. More shame.

Janoschi · 18/05/2012 12:13

Damn it.

And to think I'm such a pedantic grammar and spelling Nazi myself.

The shame.

I see what you're saying.. My dh's first name has 3 syllabils though and he manages ok

OP posts:

Janoschi · 18/05/2012 11:35

If your surname is 3 syllables and you have Harrison as a first name, it'll be a long process filling out forms for the poor kid. I like Harrison a lot but just thinking it'll be a writers cramp kinda situation!

at Travis the tractor!

I really like Morgan too, just not sure I like it enough for it to be his first name. Plus,
I'd rather not have another 'M' as we have Miles

OP posts:

thegreylady · 16/05/2012 19:13

Elliot
Bryn

thegreylady · 16/05/2012 19:11

To me Travis is a tractor! I really like Morgan and think it goes well with the other two.

Thanks bike

Dh just said Travis isn't working out so guess its not right after all.

With the other 2 we just knew the names were right but it just feels like we're scraping the barrel this time

OP posts:

BikeRunSki · 16/05/2012 18:43

As well as the builder's merchant Travis Perkins, there is a big (international) engineering company called Travers Morgan.

I like Travis.
I like Morgan (know both boys and girls called this).
I don't like them together for a person.

math Out of them I like Bennett but its my bils name

Gnocchi I might end up doing that, the idea scares me though as I had both ds's names chosen before I had them.

OP posts:

GnocchiNineDoors · 16/05/2012 17:09

Maybe you should wait until you see him, then, OP? I named DD as soon as she was born then spent the next two days calling her the cats name.

Just wait til he is here, then see what feels 'right'

mathanxiety · 16/05/2012 17:03

How about
Jackson
Lorcan
Lochlann
Hayden
Bennett
Grant
Landon
Wyatt
Owen
Corbin

I think I like Harrison more than Travis.
