I've been getting a lot of inspiration for DC3 from the girls name thread but I'm a bit stumped for a boys name.

What is your absolute favourite boys name?

Freddie (but with Frederick on birth cert.)

Watching with interest. Expecting a boy in 4 weeks and cannot agree on a name.

My favourite is Jody. Because my dog was called Jody, we cannot name our child after a dog. Apparently. DHs favourite dog name is Seamus, so we cannot call a child that. He is unlikely to ever have an Irish wolfhound if he lives with me.

Gabriel.

If we ever have a DC3 and it's a boy (we have 2 beautiful DDs), he would be Gabriel.

I can't choose just one.I have so many favourite names,but I'll try to restrict it to two.

Angus and Ivor.

Alexander. Timeless classic, cool NN (Alex), good number of syllables to balance our short surname. Shame we had girls really!
