James and Henry have a brother arriving soon. Shortlist is:

Arthur
George
Edward

Middle name will be a family name probably don't know which one. We are going round in circles with the first name and only have 6 weeks left.

Ditto Raines! Grin

Raines100 · 15/02/2016 06:47

William biased
But from your list I love Edward

Glastokitty · 15/02/2016 05:54

Richard

scrivette · 15/02/2016 05:27

Also came on to suggest Thomas but Edward goes well.

Absolutelyfabulously · 15/02/2016 03:45

I came on to say Thomas, although you may have ruled out. Fits with your two other classics.

GracieGraives · 15/02/2016 03:37

Edward. I love that name plus it continues your thomas the tank theme 😊

DramaAlpaca · 14/02/2016 20:16

Another vote for Edward.

WinterWinnie · 14/02/2016 19:33
  1. Edward
  2. George
  3. Arthur
:)

Another one that straight away thought George! James, Henry and George sound like a lovely set of boys!

Turquoiseskies · 14/02/2016 18:13

Or Thomas or Benjamin if you want to depart from royalty. Still classic though.

Turquoiseskies · 14/02/2016 18:13

William or Arthur

thebiscuitindustry · 14/02/2016 18:12

Edward

lasermum · 14/02/2016 18:01

Dominic
Nicholas
Francis

I also like Edward

timelytess · 14/02/2016 17:07

First thought, 'William'. But, as you're having Prince Charles's names, go for Arthur. All your suggestions are fine.

IsEatBedThyme · 14/02/2016 17:03

James, Henry and Edward.

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 14/02/2016 15:55

I'd be steering away from king names.

Rupert
Reuben
Peter
Simon

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 14/02/2016 15:24

Before I opened the thread I was already thinking Arthur

Mouseinahole · 14/02/2016 13:33

I came to say Edward or George of which Edward is my favourite :)

Not keen on Thomas (for no good reason it's a nice name just not for me)

RJnomore1 · 14/02/2016 12:57

Thomas for me too!

OhYouLuckyDuck · 14/02/2016 12:55

George can be used for a girl if the scan is wrong!

Thanks everyone so not a clear winner. Why is naming a human so hard! At least it's a boy, we had NO girls names so this is easier anyway Grin

BeStrongAndCourageous · 14/02/2016 11:16

Yep, before I even saw your list I thought "George. James' and Henry's brother is clearly George."

GruntledOne · 14/02/2016 11:05

Thomas?
