I love Fletcher! Classic and unusual but not weird.
Noah is a bit overused.
Romeo is one of my favourites

PinkFlamingo888 · 01/07/2018 23:24

I really like Fletcher and I like Romeo. Noah is so so boring and he’ll always have to be Noah last initial. What about Roman as an alternative to Romeo?

sonnyboo · 01/07/2018 21:14

I would choose Romeo! Cool, classic, strong and easy to spell and pronounce in most languages!

*There’s a reason they’re popular.

My parents thought that. Deed poll on my 18th birthday and got rid of the ten a penny names.*

Agree. Fashionable names are trendy until they fall out of fashion and become dated and overused!

And Noah and Harry are definitely close to that point.

Romeo

eloisesparkle · 01/07/2018 16:52

Not Noah.
Fletcher will become Fletch
Romeo - you will be accused of copying the Beckhams,
Tbh I don't like any of them. Sorry

Monny1 · 01/07/2018 16:42

Noah

Igottastartthinkingbee · 01/07/2018 16:37

Prefer Brad to Bradley. Harry is just as popular as Noah but I like it the best of all your name choices.

BikeRunSki · 01/07/2018 16:34

Fletcher
Noah is so popular at the moment it hardly serves to identify anyone.

Harry and Noah are both fine. I like the sound of Romeo but think it would be too much. Fletcher is OK.

Jonah, Fraser, Aaron, Milo?

halcyondays · 30/06/2018 23:06

Noah

Abetes · 30/06/2018 23:05

Noah

ja9r · 30/06/2018 23:03

Fletcher! Love

Noah great too

Not Romeo

RainbowsAndUnicorns23 · 30/06/2018 23:00

I really like Fletcher!! X

Stickerrocks · 30/06/2018 22:54

My DN is called Fletcher. He is one of the kindest lads I know.

I can hear the sniggers in school as soon as they have to read Romeo & Juliet and they have a real life Romeo. It's cute until the child is 3 or 4 and then fails the Serious Career test.

Noah was unusual a few years ago, now they are everywhere.

DiegoMadonna · 30/06/2018 12:18

Noah

ApocalypseNowt · 30/06/2018 11:55

Noah is inoffensive but boring. If you're going to take 15 days to name your baby you can't call him Noah at the end of it. It sounds like you gave up.

Fletcher and Romeo are both cool. Prefer Fletcher though!

Lefroy · 30/06/2018 11:51

Isn't a fletcher someone who makes arrows?

BlackBeltInChildWrangling · 30/06/2018 11:50

It's very personal OP, and it just depends on what fits with your last name and life really. The haters gonna hate Wink

Mum of boys here, and fresh from success on another baby name thread. Smile I would probably avoid Harry and Noah if there are so many now - both less common when I was naming mine, especially Noah. I personally don't particularly like Bradley or Romeo. From your list, I'd choose Fletcher. It's a bit different but not too 'out there'. I also like Sonny - a reminder of the glorious weather when he came into the world?

Congratulations OP. Hoping you and your DS are doing well, and wishing your family the best of luck for a happy and healthy future. Flowers

WardrobeUser · 30/06/2018 11:45

Love the name Fletcher, if we'd have had a boy we'd have gone with Fletcher.

bluemoonchances · 30/06/2018 11:38

Totally biased but I know a little Harry and he's gorgeous so I like that one!

Aragog · 30/06/2018 11:37

Or from the new two options: Harry

Aragog · 30/06/2018 11:34

File Cher!?! Fletcher even

Aragog · 30/06/2018 11:34

Noah

File Cher feels like a surname to me, and I don't like Romeo as a name.
