Two of my favourite names have been mentioned above, but I won't say which ones as they are my sons' names.

The other ones I love are Daniel & Finn, one of which we'd have chosen if there'd been a DS4.

The only boys name I really liked was Daniel. We (well I didn't, my husband did, and sulked when we didn't find out, but I told him he'd regret it when the baby was born, which sure enough he admitted he was glad we waited) didn't want to find out the sex until the birth, so we chose a boy and a girl name. The boys name was definite from when I was 5 months pregnant. The girls name wasn't settled at all.
In that respect, we were lucky we had a boy. (when the midwife said "it's a boy", my husband and I looked at each other and said "Daniel", it felt amazing).

My boy will be called Rory (currently 24 weeks!)
We like Leo too though, and Louie
I really liked Angus and Ivor but was vetoed by DH 🙄

I've been thinking about boys' names a lot recently, I really struggled to come up with many I like to begin with but I have tonnes now... kind of hoping for a little boy so I can use them.

I like Louis, Dylan, Daniel, Rory, ... so many lovely names.

grasspigeons · 18/08/2017 09:17

I like so many names. I won't say the names we really used but actually one was a compromise so it's not really my favourite anyway,

James, Robert, Sebastian, Joseph, Michael - all very dull but I like them a lot

I like Finbar but it makes me reminisce about the Rubberdubbers. Loved singing along to that theme tune!
