I'm pregnant with my first and we're not finding out the sex. I love Olive for a girl and I think we're set on that but I'm really struggling with boys. I'll list some that I like by my husband dosent or it's just not quite right. I don't like anything too popular but that's about it. Surname is quite Sssy so have to be careful with S names.

Ralph- I like it but somethings not right
Hector- same
Jasper- same again
Rex- my fave but husband hates
Barnaby- I love my husband again hates

Please, any suggestions welcome!!
Thanks x

I love Jasper.

PP suggested Bruno which also popped into my head for you.

If I had a baby girl I'd call her Olive or Willa. A boy would be Ted!

I like Jasper and Rex

Not keen on the others

If I were to ever have another girl she would be Olive, so sounds like we have similar taste. My son is called Jude.
