As mentioned on a previous post, OH is firmly set on Arthur, yet I worry about popularity.

We'll miracles happen, today he suggested another name! ... Dylan.

I like it, but what do you think? Middle name will be Matthew x

I prefer Arthur

Undervaluedandsad · 28/03/2020 11:34

Love Dylan.

Whatsyourflava · 28/03/2020 11:32

Love both Arthur and Dylan 😍

I prefer Arthur and it’s on our list too, although the popularity puts me off. Dylan is lovely too

Devon Matthew

I kinda like Dylan Arthur Matthew, kinda all goes together actually!

Cindie943811A · 28/03/2020 00:03

Of the two I much prefer Dylan

wishuponarainbow · 27/03/2020 21:54

Arthur all the way!
My sister is a teacher and has always said that she would never ever call her child Dylan as the ones she has taught have either been trouble or 'odd'.

The dylan I know loves his name and was pleased his parents chose it!

Dylan is so much nicer. I really don't like the name Arthur

Adelais · 27/03/2020 21:36

I prefer Dylan as I find Arthur a bit boring as it’s so popular where I am.

Cbeebiesrehab · 27/03/2020 21:34

Much prefer Dylan!

Vicliz24 · 27/03/2020 18:36

I personally love Dylan

Letthemysterybe · 27/03/2020 18:01

I prefer Dylan to Arthur, I just think it sounds nicer.

NuffSaidSam · 27/03/2020 17:58

I think it's nice.

Less trendy than Arthur.

theseriousmoonlight · 27/03/2020 17:56

I love Dylan but my brother's cat is called that so it's not allowed on my list apparently...

user1493494961 · 27/03/2020 17:55

Not keen on Dylan.

MikeUniformMike · 27/03/2020 17:35

Dylan is not to my taste. It is a bit of a bad boy name.

PlantPotting · 27/03/2020 16:24

Love both Arthur and Dylan.
Dylan seems to get a bit of stick on mumsnet sometimes but I never understand why it’s such a great choice
