I've name changed to hide my ideas! A few people know I'm on mn.

Dh has wondered if Tobias Inigo is too 'posh.' Or flamboyant. Mostly would be Toby though.

Our last name is very plain, one syllable (not that common though)

I want Inigo as the first name so this is my compromise.

Other option is Edward Inigo but our ds1 has an increasingly rather common 'royal name' already. But I do like Teddy.

Thomas has been thought of but we know many Toms and Thomases

Sebastian is another option.

(I've wondered about waiting to see what hair colour is as Edward to me is blonde and Tobias is Brown hair!)

Edward to me is blonde and Tobias is Brown hair!

Totally agree!

I think Tobias Inigo is lovely.

Thanks, good point for Tobias over Toby. I love Tobias anyway on its own.

Inigo after Inigo Jones. It does remind me of indigo which is a favourite colour and plant.

In-ee-go but more of a short 'i' sound.

How do you pronounce inigo?

I have a son called Toby. And i really wish id listened to everyone and called him Tobias. I wpuod say if you want Toby then definately use Tobias and toby for short. Gives him a "complete" forename for when hes older xx

Well, neither would be my choice.
Never heard of Inigo.
Middle names tend only to be read out at graduations, weddings etc., so might not be too bad as a middle name.

I meant Inigo

I peeler Toby and Sebastian over Edward. I know a Indigo. He's very cool
