Hello,

We’ve found out dc3 is going to be a boy 😊 we already have a girl and a boy; Matilda and Sebastian (Tilly and Seb), so looking for a boys name with a similar feel.

Surname begins with O, so rules out names beginning with B or F to avoid the initials B.O and F.O.. hadn’t thought anything of F.O until a friend pointed out its an acronym for ‘F* off‘ - is that a thing?!

Top contenders so far are:

Charlie
Zachary

Love Theodore but doesn’t work for nn Theo with the O surname annoyingly!

Thoughts on the above or any other suggestions would be much appreciated, thank you!

Zachary goes really well and is fab.

Also like the suggestion Nathaniel and Nate as a NN.

Tilly , Seb and.....

Joshua NN Josh
Jacob NN Jake
Alfred NN Freddie ( being Alfred would avoid the FO initial)

Oh sorry you didn't want one beginning with b scratch benjamin then lol. Christopher is nice too.

Shutupyoutart · 24/07/2020 22:52

I like both Charlie and Zachary. How about Benjamin(ben) Frederick (Freddie) alexander, Julian.

looloo247 · 24/07/2020 21:00

Definitely prefer Zachary over Charlie, I think it works better with your other children's names.
I also like:
Elliott (possibly nickname Eli?)
Alexander (Xander)
Jonah
Jasper
Max
Jude
Benjamin
Samuel
Joseph

Nicholas, Nikki is lovely.

It is a good name. I know two who both go by Nico, which sounds nice with Tilly and Seb.

Our dc3 due next month is Zachary middle name William
...gorgeous name . His older brother is called James, and his sister has an unusual Irish name but it just works!
What's not to love?

Isntshelovelyisntshewonderful · 05/07/2020 19:23

Thank you all so much for your messages 😊 it seems Zachary is getting a lot of love, which I’m delighted about... sadly DH isn’t so keen, but I’ve got a bit of time to try and persuade him!

Also loving Max and Arthur from the suggestions above so they are going on the list, thank you! X
