The final 4: Jack, Alfred, Harry or Hugo?

I'm nearly 37 weeks pregnant and we've finally nailed it down to 4 names:

  • Jack
  • Alfred (husband likes Alfie)
  • Hugo (we won't be naming him Hugh)
  • Harry (I prefer Henry but no from husband)

I'm German so the names have to work in both languages. Big bro is Louis, pronounced Louie.

Nothing wrong with a safe bet ! No need to come up with something weird for the sake of it . My son has one of those names and he really suits it . All great names for boys and grown up men too

Harry

Alfred, after the great English King.

Jack as long as your last name is more than one syllable

Harry

@Thewinterofdiscontent There is still 4 names even if those were the top 4, we have to choose given that you asked what there is to choose.

Picture of my 2 boys in the womb attached, looking pretty similar in my opinion but looking at that picture, I don't feel like I know what to name him, it might come to me once he's arrived.

The final 4: Jack, Alfred, Harry or Hugo?

I really love Jack.

And Harry is pretty great too!

Peachbubble · 15/04/2021 06:48

I'd choose Jack

Definitely Jack

Jack Alfred sounds very nice

LadyGAgain · 15/04/2021 06:35

Hugo.

I love them all! Louis and Hugo are cute together.
But I'm also a fan of Jack.
Louis and Alfie are a bit too much 'ee'?
Same with Harry??

So I'd go Hugo I think. Congrats, not long now!!

You’ve chosen 2 top 10 names and 2 top 50. What is there to choose? All very popular, safe bets.

Personally I’d look at the scan photo again and see what your baby looks most like to you. I could tell what mine would be like and his name matches him.
