Kit
Rupert
Fergus
Caspar
Jonah
Marcus
Wilfred
Nathaniel
Albert
Oscar
Vincent
Lewis

Any of these^^ or something else?

We can't have anything ending with N or beginning with I. Also needs to sound nice in a Home Counties and an Irish (Ulster) accent.

Opinions and suggestions most welcome.

Hold

Aaah! Makes sense. In my generation every other bloke is called Chris

holdthewine · 18/10/2017 13:06

Notagain - no because most of their fathers are called Matt! Winkbetween them my 5 DC must know 30 Matt’s between late 20s and mid 30s not one is known as Matthew all are Matt, seems to be inevitable. I have 2 sons in law called Matt!

euanthesheepiloveyou · 17/10/2017 19:16

I still say Patrick or Kit! Both lovely.

I always think of Jack as going with Emma, for some reason :)

holdthewine · 17/10/2017 08:02

OP our DCs and their friends are all having babies lately. We know 2 little Ruperts and 2 little Wilfreds.

The siblings named Emma and Rupert I know are in their 30s. I think you’re right that Rupert is timeless.

kaytee87 · 16/10/2017 12:47

James or Matthew

burntoutmum · 16/10/2017 11:26
