Help! Going round in circles trying to settle on a name for baby boy. Will be a brother to Alexander (Alex) and Gabriella (Ella). Favourites unfortunately ruled out for family reasons are Sebastian, Nathaniel & Benjamin. I like Laurence but it doesn’t work too well with our surname so DH not keen. Ideas pleeeeeasee!
