Not really, just wanted to entice you in 😄

Lovely ladies of Mumsnet, please help! We're having a boy this Spring and we're really struggling for names we both like.

We'd like something that is modern, sounds lovely and is not too popular - it will be followed by, probably, David then our one-syllable surname that goes well with most names.

Names I like but are not 'the one':
Julian
Kit
Vincent
Patrick
Ali (Alastair)
Shay

Names DH likes, but I'm not so sure about:
Elijah
Caleb
Gene
Dylan

I know there's a bit of an eclectic mix there so I'm just hoping for some inspiration. Totally open-minded at this stage 😊

I love Gus but am not keen on Angus. Another alternative is Magnus which I'm undecided on.

Zachary?

Why not Christopher, shortened to Kit?

I have a Patrick, by the way- it's a fab name.
