Frank will be his name. I know it’s very mixed on here so please no negative comments as it has already become my DS name.

Q. Would you use Frankie as a nn whilst he is young as Frank is quite harsh sounding for a baby? Yes I know they are only babies for a short time

Q. Would you put Frank or Francis on the BC?

Frankie sounds totally different to Frank, so I’d call him his name , Frank , from the start . People will get used to it . Francis on bc I’m not sure . Btw , good choice of name Frank 👍

I think frankie is a cute NN so itl prob stick for a while! I'm not a fan of Francis even tho it's a family name so will be our next kids middle name. I'd have frank on the BC.
