If I like Nicholas

What else?

I like

Edward (can't use as DS1 is called Edward)
Nicholas (nephew's name)
Hugo (doesn't go with surname)
Louie (ditto)
Wilfred (DH says no way)

I don't really like

William (just too blah)
James (too commonly heard)
Thomas (as above)
Oliver (too common)
Samuel (it is ok, but so many lf them.)

Any suggestions ? Smile

Alexander springs to mind. Or Matthew. I love Nicholas, it's a family name but I have 5 DDs so haven't used it :)

I quite like it, but it is a bit too Scottish. We aren't Scottish!

I'm not keen on Francis. I am married to the second Grin not really keen on Peter, no good reason, just that a boy I was at primary school with was called Peter and I didn't like him!
