We like too many names, it's ridiculous. We seriously don't have a favourite...

I thought I'd turn it into a little game, that you can help with! Please tell me your favourite and least favourite, I'll then put those into separate piles; if someone then likes the opposite, it'll go back - it makes sense in my head! So, what's your favourite and least favourite (pick only 1).

Yey, what a fab name for a gorgeous boy.

Isaac is at the top of my list should we have another little boy.

Many congratulations!

LotsofDots · 04/05/2016 15:53

Isaac Sebastian. So nearly named by mumsnet! Congratulations OP. Now will have to start making my name list for DC3. We don't know if it's a boy or a girl so just 84 names to come up with...

CutYourHairAndGetAJob · 04/05/2016 08:41

Congratulations op, Isaac Sebastian is a lovely name

Congratulations OP! Isaac Sebastian is such a gorgeous name! In fact, they were both on my list but they don't work with DH's surname, sadly. I'm delighted that they're being put to good use.

And also glad to know that my concerns were wrong! (Just that there have been some fake/hoax/research threads around.) Sorry I doubted you

Very happy for you now that you've found the perfect name that you love Enjoy spending time with your little boy.

IslaSinga · 03/05/2016 22:24

Love the name - Isaac is one of my faces!

OneMagnumisneverenough · 03/05/2016 21:58

Aww he is lovely :) so sweet.

DH never got the hang of dressing - we have a series of pictures - Dressed by Daddy :)

He use to co-ordinate their socks and tops and put any random bottoms on.

Somerville · 03/05/2016 21:56

That little ducky smiling mouth 😍😍😍

rainbowstardrops · 03/05/2016 21:56

He is just so scrummy!!! Ooh I'd love a little huggle. not ok to be broody at my age

LadyAntonella · 03/05/2016 21:50

He is so, so gorgeous OP. Hugest congratulations to you .

ANewLittleBoy2 · 03/05/2016 21:48

Oh, he was in shorts and tshirt because DH dressed him! (That's for judging though ) I'm kidding! But DH isn't the best at dressing just yet, but they were in newborn size, so at least that was right and I don't see too much of an issues, they were lovely material

ANewLittleBoy2 · 03/05/2016 21:46

Thank you all so much!

Mind you, you've made me a little paranoid that he looks old! he's a week tomorrow.

He wasn't particularly big when he was born either! Oh well, maybe it's just photos.

I know, the meaning is adorable!!! He's always smiling, even though he's so young - never at me mind you!!

My beautiful Isaac Sebastian

rainbowstardrops · 03/05/2016 21:44

Yay, I was routing for Isaac after Kieran (I prefer Ciaran) went and I was gutted when Isaac got knocked off too but it's back!!!!
I luffs a happy ending.

Somerville · 03/05/2016 21:35

Oh I'm so thrilled OP! Firstly, that you updated - thank you! Secondly, and most importantly, that you found the name that suits him!

And so glad that you found that right name for him after it was ruled out on here - it means we did help you after all!!!

The thing is, the names we got down to were naice and rather bland. Including the one I was fighting for. That's the nature of committees. My own children have very unusual names, that most of MN would rule out immediately for being too try-hard! You know his personality, you know the area you live in and his family history. The name you've chosen for him is perfect because you chose it.

And welcome to the world, little Isaac.

LadyAntonella · 03/05/2016 21:32

What a lovely meaning! I didn't know that. DH refused to pick a favourite when I was on the thread at the start but he now says Isaac was the one he picked too. Moves Isaac to number one choice for potential DS. Yes I have a list, no I'm not pregnant. What?

Twoseventhsaweasley · 03/05/2016 21:29

Isaac is a brilliant name for a gorgeous little boy. It means "He will be laughing", and I really hope he will.

OneMagnumisneverenough · 03/05/2016 21:14

thank you - all children are lovely though.

GinnyMcGinFace · 03/05/2016 21:11

GinandRoses this is most definitely a time where one should read the full thread....

They're super handsome!

LadyAntonella · 03/05/2016 21:08

Gorgeous!

OneMagnumisneverenough · 03/05/2016 21:05

ha ha - eldest is a closed book - getting info is like blood from a stone. Plus he'll be busy doing his Highers next year while DS2 is doing his Nats and then he'll be doing his AHs which DS2 is doing his Highers.

Slightly earlier photo - last one I promise :)

ANewLittleBoy2 · 03/05/2016 21:03

Wonderful
