We are so stuck! We’d like something a bit less popular this time round. DH is on the look out for a ‘good solid British name’ and has rejected all my suggestions out of hand.

George was my first thought

I love the name Paul, which is never mentioned on here and seems unpopular at the moment. Solid, classic name.

BlondeB83 · 29/11/2017 20:28

Joshua or Jacob

My boys names are William, Alexander and Edward too!

JollyGiraffe · 29/11/2017 20:23

Philip was the first that came to my head...

Bratsandtwats · 29/11/2017 20:22

James was the first name that sprang to mind.

Then Edward, Henry and George.

I think 'Royal' names are the way to go here.

OPs husband is after a good solid British name!

AlmostChristmas · 29/11/2017 20:03

Louis is a bit, well French!

thatcatpidgeon · 29/11/2017 20:03

Love the Julian suggestion (Jules) or James, they both sound great with the names. Or Louis, Hugo or Luke.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 29/11/2017 20:01

William, Alexander and Louis.
