Help! We can't name our baby boy. We've been disagreeing about this for months now, and he's finally here and we're still no closer.
So can I turn it over to you, wise Mumsnetters? To offer up your best suggestions and help us stop referring to him as 'the baby'.
Ideally we don't want any royal names, surnames as names, or American popular names like Grayson.
Surname is Chipp.
Thank you!

@namethisbeaut What a beautiful boy 😊 Congratulations OP! Hope you’re both doing well 😊
Lots of good suggestions already! I love:
Elliott (Second choice for our DS but we went Max instead 😊)
Spencer
Nathan

I also met a toddler yesterday called Lawrie which I thought was cute.

I agree that a name with more than 1 syllable probably works better with your surname.

sofakingcool · 30/12/2021 08:32

Oh he's gorgeous!

I agree that he needs a longer name -
