Four weeks to go and we're down to our final three, a mix of mine and DH's favourites. (Won't say which is mine in case I need to use this thread in evidence against himGrin). Which one do you prefer? Thanks!

Hamish!

I have an ex boyfriend called Gilbert. He was a nice chap. Great name.

Hamish!! Love a strong Scottish name

Definitely Hamish, it's a lovely name.

Ralph (love Ralphie as a nn) and Gilbert (love Bert as nn).

Please don't use Hamish. I think it's horrible and reminds me of a horse (sorryGrin)

Gilbert by a long way.

Depends if you watch Neighbours! They have a portly little villainous old man called Hamish. Ralph is nicer.

Hamish.

I'm not keen on the other two, but I do like Hamish.

Ralph, though I prefer the Rafe pronunciation.

I like them all but have a particular soft spot for Gilbert (Anne of Green Gables fan 💕)
