Thoughts please! DH and I are trying to decide on a boys name, finding it pretty hard..

If it isn't nice, suggestions are welcome Smile

I like it. Unusual without being weird or made up

Erm...it sounds like a Mills & Boon character to me.

No.

Hmm. Probably is quite American, though this doesn't put me off.

I like that:
It has a strong sound
It has 2 syllables (surname is just one)
It is unusual, but not in a made up way
It sounds classy (to me, I am willing to be told otherwise!)

Very American as a first name; I've only ever encountered it as a surname in the uk. What do you like about it?
