What's the boy's name I liked but can't remember? All I can remember about it is....

...that it had -ar- somewhere in it. Not at the end I think probably in the middle but not 100% on that.

Any ideas?

Caspian

Caspar.

However I still think Captain Barnacles is better...perhaps Kwasi,or Paso could be less common?

Ah but 3boys I might make it Rarbin. Or Robarn. Both equally good I feel.

Caspar is quite nice, I think I prefer Robin though.

3boys3dogshelp · 02/09/2013 19:52

I love that the upshot of 2 pages of -ar names is that the baby should be Robin!!

Now looking at Harper and Carson together reminded me of Caspar. That might have been it. Hmmm.

I'm impressed by how many 'ar' names you've all come up with. Thanks :).

Do you prefer Caspar or Robin?

How I spell it is personal choice UpTheFrigg. I'd like him to stand out and be remembered. Captain Barnacles is so ubiquitous he might as well be called Sam or James.

Every morning, at least, I hear the name Captain Barnacles.

Possibly it was Arthur but it doesn't strike me as The One I thought I'd found at the time.

Why the heck didn't I write it down? possibly because it was more than a year before I was even ttcing .

Captain Barnacles is a brilliant name,
Captain Barnacle is a silly misspelling,he'll spend his whole life correcting people.

BrianTheMole · 02/09/2013 14:35

Aardvark?

Hope that's a joke about Barnacle...Biscuit

Daryl? Harry? Jared? Carter?

Yes, yes. It was Barnacle! Would shifting it to the middle and having Captain as a first name be too much?

I just can't stop trying to think of ar names though.
