He won't even discuss Lawrence as an option. Or Delilah, but he is Welsh, so I suppose I can forgive him for that.

Daisy
Frida
Luna
Sarah (on the basis of the surname)

Felix
Toby
Winston

I wasn't too cut up about Frida or Luna because they both go shockingly with the surname, so wouldn't been cut from the list eventually anyway.

My DH vetoed
Raphael
Adam
Samuel

I vetoed the names Xerxes which DH was at first adamant about. And since he was into the names of ancient Kings - I also had to veto Ozymandias
Darius
Cyrus
Cambyses
Ghengis (ok, I joked about the last one).
