I find girls names SO easy, I have a huge list that I would be happy using any of them.
Struggling massively with boys names, can you give me your opinions on my list below or any other suggestions I may like?
I’m fortunate to currently pregnant with DS number 2, DS1 has a name in the top 10 and I would like something a bit more unusual if possible for DS2 (although I know all my choices below are very mainstream- they’re the ones I have got DH to agree on and he likes more common names!)

Jude
Casper
Ellis
Evan
Toby
Xander (not keen on the nickname Alex so wouldn’t use Alexander)

Thanks Smile

I like Jude and Casper best

I like Jude - don’t think it’s crazy popular? Xander is odd as a full name, Evan has had its day I think, and Ellis a bit faddy. Casper and Toby are OK - prefer Cassian and Tobias,

Other thoughts - Guy, Nathaniel, Joss, Elijah, Jerome, Gideon, Robert, Dominic, Patrick, Michael, Alistair, Giles, John, Jonathan, Joshua, Laurence, Lucian, Julius, Justin - all quite classic for your DP but not too popular right now

I like Casper!

How about Quentin, Raphael or Magnus?
