Can I ask what you think of Douglas? My DH and I both like it, mainly because of it's connection to my family but I'm not sure if it's a bit too old fashioned? Really struggling with finding boys names we both like!

I think it's fabulous. Dougie is adorable for a small child and Doug is fine for an adult. One on my list

A few years ago I would have said it was dated but actually I think it’s coming back again now like a lot of slightly old fashioned names. I like it. Sweet for a little boy and perfectly sensible for a grown man.

I have a nephew Douglas, who goes by Dougie. Think it's a great name! Go for it

I like it. Plus I quite like Dougie as a nn.

I really like Douglas! It was one of the names in the running for our little boy. It is a bit old fashioned, but in a good way (I think!).
