Quite alright lady. Patrick is one of my favourites, so I’ll still be your friend Wink.

Oh I know pip, but I love them all! Except Christopher, I’ve now realised. So that’s off the list too. Making slow progress!

Answering a couple of posts; I am Irish, (well, mainly - it’s quite complicated)! I grew up in Ireland and have an Irish accent, so most people would say I was Irish.

I was planning to keep the top three and choose from those, but now I’m not sure about Kit (lovely in some accents but just a noise in others) and really like Fergus! Tricky.

Marcus Vincent Patrick

Are you going to choose the most popular or the least?

holdbackonthewine · 09/11/2017 22:57

Wilfred, Rupert, Patrick please.

I actually love Fergus but think you need to be, at least partly, Scottish and I don’t know
If you are. I know a very handsome Fergus known as Fergie.

Thanks so much for all these comments.

I’ve been keeping a tally!

If anyone’s interested; Kit / Christopher is in the lead, closely followed by Oscar.

Fergus seems to be the least popular.

Re pp who suggested Alfred; I like it, but I’m not mad about Alfie or Freddie, so haven’t got it on my list.
