DS 6 is Joshua.
DS 2 due in december.....our names list consists of...
Jude
Sebastian
Daniel
Mitchell
.....so far.
Middle names likely to be Christopher and or John/Steve (granddads).
Any thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas or contributions welcome. Open to new names.....like uncommon but not necessarily unusual names.
TIA.

I think Hugo (and loads of other names including Sebastian and Theodore) used to be considered the preserve of the upper middle classes. I don't think that's true any more. There is a Hugo at my dd's nursery. Not an especially 'posh' nursery.

I love the name fwiw.

I love Hugo.....but I've been told it's too posh???Hmm Some great suggestions. Thanks everyone.
No-one seems to like Sebastian?? Seb??

I know a Joshua and his brothers are Edward and Samuel. They seem to go with your style. Smile

Joshua and Daniel sounds good

Joshua and Nathan?

Joshua and Samuel are perfect together!

I may be a little bias here...

Joshua and Ethan go well together too.

Don't like Jude or Sebastian

Joshua and Jude to matchy matchy
Mitch? I don't know.
Daniel is a classic name that never dates.

My suggested name is Fraser.

Joshua and Daniel, lovely !

Smoliver · 04/10/2017 20:38

I think Daniel would work well with Joshua. I also like Liam, Thomas, Tobias, Isaac and Caleb.
