Ideas so far:

Ivan
Tristan
Dexter (I'm not keen, DH is)
Julian (DH really not keen)

Had loads of other ideas which DH ruled out. Currently nagging him to come up with some new suggestions! We both like Ivan and Tristan but want to at least consider some other ideas before we decide!

Tristan goes best with Quentin i think.

PicnicPie · 10/03/2017 23:44

Jasper?

I know twins who are Quinten (variant spelling) and Zachary.
Known to all as Quin and Zac.

SuburbanRhonda · 10/03/2017 23:37

Tarquin

10Betty10 · 10/03/2017 23:36

I like Tristan. Ivan also- have you thought about Ivo? Sounds good with Quentin. Felix works well too.

ScarletSienna · 10/03/2017 23:31

I think if one doesn't like it, you can't really choose it but I like Tristan best anyway!

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 10/03/2017 23:18

Toby would work well.
I like Tristan the most from your list.

DramaAlpaca · 10/03/2017 23:14

As soon as I saw your thread title I thought Tristan.

Sebastian goes well too, I think.

I'd rule out Julian because of the Famous Five connection.

elephantoverthehill · 10/03/2017 23:12

Logically if you have a Quentin you have 5 children. Therefore the next would be Sextus Grin.

Marcus
Montgomery
Gavin
Philip
Aidan
Ambrose

RJnomore1 · 10/03/2017 23:02

I knew a Quentin who had a brother called Ford.

VimFuego101 · 10/03/2017 22:59

Not that there's anything wrong with Julian or Quentin, but you know they're both Famous Five characters? You might get a few jokes about it.

Lemonnaise · 10/03/2017 22:50

Julian is my favourite from your list.
