I'm due in 10 weeks, a little boy. We have a DD and her name came so naturally. We literally have no names for DS! No list, nothing. Every name just sounds wrong I can't explain it and starting to panic now! Throw all of your suggestions at me pleaseeeeeeeeeee Grin

No names to add but when I was expecting I thought I was having boys, I was wrong both times, so I had no girls names ready. One of them was just called baby for a while, so don't worry too much Grin

Thanks to everyone who made suggestions! Some good ideas, I mentioned a few to DH who wasn't keen... so I can't win lol. How is this so hard! My DD name came up through a tv character and I don't know if it seemed easier to imagine that way, this time I just say the names but can't "picture" him .

We're having a boy in April and we're naming him Caleb.

Other names I considered were
Isaac
Nathan
Ethan

Names are so hard, it's hard to find the right one!

We liked Leo but can't use ....

I'm Scottish but my DD name is sort of Spanish so open to foreign sounding names ... I like Nico but I'm afraid it sounds a bit like the local take away Blush I just don't know Confused

Walter (White) meth kingpin.

HugoBearsMummy · 08/02/2019 15:15

We picked Hugo for DS as we also wanted something to see him through childhood teens and adulthood, and also something a little bit different but not weird or made up... other names we had on our list were:

Jenson
Jesse
Max
Zane

Hope that helps !
