I think we are set on our girls name but boys name really struggling with, so far on our list we have:

Otto
Bertie
Casper
William

What are people's thoughts on them? And any similar ones we might quite like?

Thank you Smile

My dsis has a daschund called Otto - so for me it’s a sausage dogs name!
Bertie sounds a bit silly, I suppose he could shorten it to Bert when he’s older
Not sure about Casper.
William is the best.

Otto - no
Bertie - no
Casper - prefer Caspar or Caspian
William - the best on your list

William is fab.

I find Bertie tricky too in that it doesn't sound like it would suit a teenager/man. I like it as a nn for Albert though. The other three are good names although William does seem to be v popular. Other names that could work...

Felix
Lucian
Lucas
Oscar
Jacob

Really like Casper and Otto but not keen on the other two

IceColdCat · 28/02/2020 17:03

In order:
William
Casper
Bertie
Otto

I wouldn’t use any of them apart from William.

But Bertie my least favourite

PlantPotting · 28/02/2020 16:51

Love all 4 😍

But that's down to my lack of imagination/ not knowing any! Still a nice name Smile

Cucumbersalad · 28/02/2020 16:37

They're all lovely but I was just musing to myself yesterday about a Bertie I know...sweet name for a baby/ little boy but I don't feel like it would suit a teenager
