I'm due a baby boy in July 2017, but am really struggling to find a name I actually like. I want a strong, unusual name that nobody really has but it's proving difficult. Somebody please help. My boyfriend doesn't like Leo, Carter or Hugo. Please help me I'm driving myself mad lol

What about Yann?

I really like Felix.

As a caution, all 3 of the unrelated newborns I know since Christmas are all Hector. So much that I had to ask Mum 3 to repeat, as it's such a coincidence!

Congratulations on your baby x

Milo, Arlo, Dexter, Linus

LouisevilleLlama · 02/03/2017 20:59

TBH anything like John, David Robert, Craig now seems uncommon due to the unique names now becoming normal
