6 days to go - think this is now ' the one' we've finally settled on . What do you reckon ? And any preference on the middle names :
Idris Ezra Thomas .. ( then surname )
Idris Arlo Thomas ...
Idris Jack Thomas ...
( jack and thomas are family names we'd like to possibly carry through)
Thanks all !

Thanks for all of your input and suggestions . We had our little Idris Jack Thomas at 11.25pm on Summer Solstice / Father's Day 21st and he is just perfect :) xx

Idris Arlo Thomas is awesome. I like Idris Ezra Thomas as well but maybe a bit of a mouthful? Fab names!

ceebelle83 · 22/06/2015 15:51

My husband's Welsh grandad was called William Idris Thomas (Thomas being his surname) Strong nameage.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 21/06/2015 16:10

I like Idris, but none of the mn combos. Idris Thomas if I have to pick.

MsMessyandtheTidyBoys · 21/06/2015 15:55

Love Idris! Idris Jack is my favourite

timelyreminder · 20/06/2015 17:27

Idris Arlo Thomas.

I don't like Jack, and Idris Ezra is a bit of a mouthful.

Leaflitter · 20/06/2015 17:18

Love Idris.

Think Idris Thomas Jack flows best.

BatteryPoweredHen · 20/06/2015 17:07

Isn't your 'Jack Thomas' your penis? (if you are a chap, obviously)

...or is it 'John Thomas'?

Bit close for comfort though, if you ask me Smile

4 days overdue now - still going for Idris we think. If anyone has got any last suggestions on the name combinations or just about the name itself , that would be great - thanks Smile

We loved Idris but went with Ivor in the end. Arlo was also on our list.

TeresaGuidice · 09/06/2015 12:33

Love Idris but definitely not with Ezra
Idris Elba is pretty well known these days and it's just too similar , it was my first thought when I saw it.
Love all the other choices though
Good luck GrinGrin

PotteringAlong · 09/06/2015 12:27

I have an Idris! Love it!

DayLillie · 09/06/2015 12:26

Sorry - Idris Jack - got carried away with my Ivors there Blush

DayLillie · 09/06/2015 12:25

I love Idris and would have had one if I had another chance! It is the name of the little dragon that Ivor the Engine carries around in his furnace (I also love Ivorxxxxxxxx)

Ivor Jack is best. Easier to say. Hope FIL suitably appreciative!

Idris Ezra sounds very similar to Idris Elba...

CatsAreLikeChocolates · 08/06/2015 19:00

Another vote for Jack. Love it!

StayGoldPonyBoy · 08/06/2015 18:59

Idris Jack or Idris Arlo. Love the name Idris

Luciferbox · 08/06/2015 18:59

Idris Jack Thomas. Idris is potentially our DS2's name.

jorahmormont · 08/06/2015 18:57

Idris Jack Thomas is GORGEOUS! Ardderchog :)
