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).

I missed that bluesky - I did debate in my head how old the 2nd pic baby is but it could still be very young, I think the outfit makes you think older but the hands etc still look very young baby. I brought my baby home from hospital in shorts etc (it was warm and we'd been in a few days and he'd puked, shat on or didn't fit everything I'd brought, I asked DH to bring in more clothes and that's what he arrived with :) I'd already had to cut the feet off some baby gros for giant baby.

In one of her early posts the OP says her baby is 4 days old but that second picture she posted looks like a much older baby to me.

Lol Maryz, quite a few so far! Grin

Hushabyelullaby · 03/05/2016 00:15

Wow I guessed the surname! And I still stick by Alexander James (then a nod to your DH's brother, Sebastian) Walker

OneMagnumisneverenough · 02/05/2016 23:03

Maryz and then I started thinking about who would dress a day old baby in other than a sleepsuit....the realised that the OP didn't say how old he was and also I took mine home from hospital in shorts and t-shirt.

I'm beginning to have the thought that the OP was yanking our chain. I've spent about 10 minutes comparing the two baby pictures trying to see if it is definitely the same baby and then I thought what the feck am I doing,? It's a baby name thread on an internet forum and i'm not Magnum PI.... regardless of what my username is! :o

BikeRunSki · 02/05/2016 21:57

Magnum's suggestion is both genius and cruel to dozy people who may be hormonal and sleep deprived.

josie25 · 02/05/2016 21:24

Please come back with the big reveal!!

Emus · 02/05/2016 19:14

Do like Leo though. Wink

Can't believe we haven't heard a name!

Ilovenannyplum · 02/05/2016 15:59

I feel more excited about this child's name than I did when naming my own DS SmileBlush

This if the funnest (yes it is a word in my world) thread on MN I have ever seen. And I didn't even take part, just read the whole thing now.

I am now beside myself to find out whether the baby is going to be called Leo Sebastian (how cute). Please come back and tell us OP, I know you have a new baby to attend to so I'll be patient BrewCakeChocolate

eatsleepfeedrepeat · 02/05/2016 13:38

Even though my favourite name left is James I think Alexander Sebastian really suits him from the pictures. Doesn't matter that it's long as you rarely have to write your full name before adulthood anyway! Congrats by the way on your gorgeous boy

CutYourHairAndGetAJob · 02/05/2016 12:47

I really like Leo Sebastian!

TheSultanofPingu · 02/05/2016 12:44

Op, have you decided on Leo Sebastian?
I have a Leo, so of course I think it's lovely. I also think Sebastian is great as a middle name. They do complement each other.
