Please help! We still have no boys name. I'm starting to feel really upset as DH and I just can't seem to pick something we both love. We have chosen Esme for a baby girl and both feel excited about it as it feels 'right' . Boys names we have noted just now but none seem perfect :(

Harrison
Hugo
George
Oscar
Benjamin
Leo
Hunter
Innes

I know a female Jude who really puts me off the lovely name! (Isn't that awful of me??) I like Milo but scared it'll date? Flynn is gorgeous but doesn't go with our surname!

I just googled 'Esme's brother' to see what people who like Esme liked for boys. Interesting:

First names linked to Esme were:

Emmett
Ellroy
Enzo
Calum
Flynn
Augustus
Milo
Ninnian
Charles
