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

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.

James
Thomas
Henry

When I saw only the title I thought immediately 'Matthew or Thomas'.

From your list: Nathaniel and Lewis are lovely names and go well, and really like your additions of Harry/Henry, Max and Patrick.

Emma and Harry

I do love Rupert though. Also love Wilfred, but think it's having a moment whereas Rupert is a bit more classic. Love Roo as a nn for a little one.

Emma's brother is definitely Matthew

I tend to agree really. It's just that we have quite a common surname, so think there must be a lot of Matthew Surnames around! Not necessarily in the same age range. We can always give him a bonkers unusual middle name Grin.

Rupert

EnriqueTheRingBearingLizard · 15/10/2017 22:55

Marcus or Kit.

RJnomore1 · 15/10/2017 22:51

Emma's brother is definitely Matthew.

JennyLane · 15/10/2017 22:51

Punt in for Rupert as it's my favourite name hubs wouldn't let me have.
Second vote for a suggestive Henry. The name i had convinced him of finally but baby was a girl

Nonotmenori · 15/10/2017 22:48

I know several Emma's their brothers are:

Adam
Connor
Christopher

CherriesInTheSnow · 15/10/2017 22:46

Spookily I immediately thought Kit before I even clicked on the thread and saw your list, consider it a good sign if you like ;)

Not keen on Jake as it reminds me of Baby Jake on CBeebies!

Nicholas is nice, but DH not keen.

DH vetoed Robert as he knows too many adult Roberts. I like it though.

We like Matthew - have added it to the list.
