Oh I always wanted to call my son Willoughby...I know it is technically a surname but I just love it. Was never allowed though.

I think Julian is such a lovely boys name (still angry that DH wouldn’t let us use it😡)

BillyAndTheSillies · 18/05/2019 18:54

I have a Byron so I'm biased, love Cyprian from your list.
Also a fan of Raphael and Valentine.

Valentine?

fluffyblankets · 18/05/2019 18:30

Instantly thought Romeo or Valentine, though imo you’d have to be pretty brave to go for Valentine, however much I love it!
Not sure if its “romantic” per say, but as you like Laurence would you like Lawrie? I think its brill!

Something Italian? The most ordinary name in English can be transformed. Giovanni. Federico. Cosimo.
