Yay or ney?
I should add surname starts with a H also.
So Hunter (middle name unknown) H
My partner had his heart set on it last pregnancy and I wasnt keen. This time round he is desperate again. I dont hate it. But I also dont love it. Partially because I love more traditional names (harry, oliver etc)
We currently have, George, Charlie (previous marriage) and Teddy

Opinions welcome, also middle name suggestions...

It’s ok. I’m not a big fan of American style names, and it feels very American to me and doesn’t really fit with your other kids names (which may not matter). It’s not for me but I think it’s a perfectly acceptable name and unlikely to get teased etc.

I'm not a fan of the name Hunter. Not a fan of the surname as a first name trend or the hunting connotations. It doesn't fit with his brothers' more traditional names either (I'd probably feel a little shortchanged if I were Hunter). That said, I do like the alliteration.

HH is OK (His Highness :-) ).

I quite like the name, it makes me think of the writer, Hunter Davis. However, Mel's late good looking but psychopathic son in Eastenders was called 'Hunter' and that would put me off a bit because I imagine a lot of EE watchers will have named their babies after him.
