After much discussion I think these are our top 3 for our baby boy due later this year. We would likely put Alfred on the birth certificate for Alfie, either Alfred or Frederick for Freddie, I’m not keen on Charles but my husband would probably insist on it for Charlie on the BC.

I know they are all very popular/done a million times etc, but honestly we find boys names so, so hard.

So, of the three, which is your favourite? Thanks!

Charlie
but you could use Alfred and use either Alfie or Freddie

Alfie feels a touch dated to me. I prefer Frederick.

I love Alfred / Freddie. I think it's an unusual combination and a cute name.

I like Freddie and the one Freddie I know is such a cute lad so it has nice connotations in my head. But if you like the shortened version of the name just put that on the BC. I don't see the need to put an extended version you don't intend on calling them.

I love the name Alfie after hearing it on Peaky Blinders, Tom Hardy's character. Don't like Freddie and love Charlie for either a boy or a girl. Alfie not as common as the others.

Alfie/ Alfred is definitely my favourite followed by Frederick/ Freddie
