Found out today we are having a boy! I'm thrilled as we have 1 ds and 2dds at present so at least 7 year old ds wont be leaving home which he threatened to do if this one was a girl!
So which boys name would you pick? To give you an idea of our taste we have Joseph, Susannah and Cassia. Hello to anyone who spots me ha ha.

If you like Daniel, how about the other angel names: Gabriel, Rafael, Michael, Castiel - the last would fit with the 3rd letter S pattern!

Sorry, I skim-read and thought that Joseph, Susannah & Cassia were your ideas for the new baby boy. 🤣

Yes I have a Susannah. I like lots of the names mentioned but we have a huge family between us and a lot of names are taken including Benjamin and Isaac which I love. Interesting about the middle s. I hadn't realised.
If I was choosing alone he would be Daniel but I'm not and dh dislikes it.
Thank you for the help so far. Very useful.

We have used two of your three names and had number two been a boy he would've been Isaac Nahum Bartholomew. I'm happy to gift you the name as we won't be having any more!

Sparklypurpleunicornsaremyfav · 26/10/2019 20:43

They are beautiful names!!! I really like Isaac to go with the other names

Shannatate · 26/10/2019 17:13

I like lucas or Isaac they are quite traditional and would fit in with the others.

BelfastmummyL · 26/10/2019 15:27

Just realised your names all have an s as the third letter hence the first syllable ends with a sssss sound. Think that's why isaac seems a natural choice or max as x sound is close to a s sound. You have an 'os' ,' us' and 'as' so isaac would be an 'is'😅
Or Oscar?
