I’ve posted here before whilst pregnant with my shortlist, and now that baby is here and 2 weeks old I still haven’t made a decision 🙈
From my list we’ve sort of whittled it down to Otis or Caspar, I also like Rudy but we’re both not sure, argh!

Brothers are Rafe and Milo.

We have an appt to register him on Thursday.

Caspar. He’s of the 3 wise men.

Caspar goes much better your other names than Otis.

Casper is best, even though he is a friendly ghost.

Otis will always be a singer, a tough one to pull off if he doesn’t turn out to be a handsome black man with a lovely voice xx

Casper the friendly ghost.

Otis is a singer.

Rudy means two of your sons' would share same first initial which would bring problems once they are teens and start getting letters.

Otis out of those 3, but also like Theo from a pp!

Caspar gets my vote! Congratulations btw!

MercyBodle · 15/05/2019 06:39

Caspar without a doubt! Best name of the 3 and definitely the best with the brothers. (There's no way I'd have Milo and Otis as brothers, but that must show my age.)

Rafe, Milo and Otis. Love Otis.

whizzpopbangalang · 15/05/2019 04:26

Otis- I like think it is the strongest sounding name out of the 3. Congratulations!

Alexthekid · 15/05/2019 04:26

Otis! Love it with your other names

A photo might help the mn jury decide.... just sayin...

shiveringtimber · 15/05/2019 04:06

Caspar

Tavannach · 15/05/2019 03:38

Otis. Goes well with the other two.
Otis Redding's 'Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay' is one of the best songs ever.

Caspar! We have a 10 month old Caspar and I love it. (And his big brother has a name very similar to one of your older boys!)

Chilledout11 · 15/05/2019 03:33

From your choices I would prefer Casper
Theo would work well with Rafe and Milo

BasiliskStare · 15/05/2019 03:29

Of the 3 I would prefer Otis. Caspar sounds a bit unwieldy to me & a Rafe and and a Rudy sound a bit similar - so lovely for a pair of terriers but not necessarily for two brothers ( Oh I do not mean to be rude , it would work , of course it would work if that is what you choose. ) But as you're asking - I would vote for Otis - it worked for Bryan Ferry Smile Flowers
