These names are different to my children'e names, but me and DH just cannot agree on any boy names. He loves Magnus, while I don't hate it I think it is too strong for siblings Charlie and Tilly.

DH likes Norse and strong sounding names, so far the ones I didn't completely nix were Arlo and Corben.

opinions on these names please :)

I love your other children's names, but hate both the names you have picked :(

Arlo is a lot better, though!

I really like Arlo, but I think it is old English for Charles? So you'd have 2 DS's with variations on Charles?

I'm Scandinavian so some names off the top of my head: Eirik, Henrik, Nickolai, Johan.

Charlie and Tilly are their full names.
It's so frustrating naming a third child, especially when out tastes are so different.

Not a fan on stellan or lars, but thank you for the suggestion.
Back to the drawing board...grrrrrrr

How about Max? Or Magnus with Max for short? I'm not keen on either Corbin or Arlo.

I know a Corbin. He suits his name perfectly. So I have a biased opinion.

Arlo is much, much better than Corben.

I like Magnus. Yes it is "stonger" than Charlie and Tilly, I don't think it is too strong.

Are Charlie and Tilly their full names on their BC? If not, shouldn't you go for another name which could be longer, like Alfie or Billy?

I'm with your DH on this. Corben did make me think of Jeremy Corbyn, unless you pronounce the 'e' very definitely that's what people will hear I think.
Arlo is nice but very Stroud.
Do you like Stellan or Lars?
