We need a boys name! Not too plain and personally I like slightly longer names although it doesn't have to be. Potentials on the list currently include Barnaby, Rafferty, Montgomery and Hector.

Any suggestions?! Surname is 4 syllables and begins with a vowel so makes it a bit tricky.

Sebastian or Cassian. Although the ‘Ian’ part does always stick in my mind honestly.

Sorry I just have to write it out again... Balthazar. Such. A. Fabulous. Name.

lanadelgrey · 10/08/2023 19:56

But seriously I think the same number of syllables is nice as you are sort of attuned to saying similar pattern for both dc

iloveburmese3 · 10/08/2023 19:56

Balthazar. The name of my son and it's so chic (but most people on here don't love it and I own it tbh😹😹😹). Babar for short - I'm obsessed
