Baby boy born on Saturday and still doesn’t have a name! Names we do like but can’t use, for various reasons, are Jude, Leo and Joey. Want something similar but a little less popular - any suggestions?

He will be little brother to Bonnie and Thea if that helps…

He is absolutely beautiful- congratulations! Ellis is my favourite softer boys name (it means kind, benevolent). I think it suits him and goes really well with your daughters and surname. Good luck and come back to update us!

Edward, then you could shorten to Eddie, Teddy, Ed, Ted.

Tobias, Toby.

Ah he’s an absolute dote, OP. Gorgeous little boy. Yes to Kit! I see Kit or Finn, looking at his little face. Congratulations!

BrutusMcDogface · 12/06/2024 22:30

Gosh, he’s gorgeous! Congratulations!! I also adore your two daughters’ names!

Kit goes really well with the girls’ names but not sure if it goes with the surname. I’m thinking! 🤔

He’s adorable. Congratulations ! What about Luca?

My most favourite boy names are Thomas and Ben but I don’t think that they are what you are looking for.

Have your daughters made any suggestions?

Delphineo · 12/06/2024 22:14

Art or Artie

Love levi that someone else has suggested
Levi Hooton is a great name!

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 12/06/2024 22:10

A mix of Jude, Leo and Joey might be Jago? I’ve met a couple of young ones now (and we don’t live in Cornwall) but it’s still nowhere near as popular as those previous three. Although I kind of think he looks like an Ivo? Gorgeous boy btw❤️

anunlikelyseahorse · 12/06/2024 21:59

Cute baby, many congratulations Flowers

anunlikelyseahorse · 12/06/2024 21:58

He looks like an Alexander to me. It's a nice name when shortened too. Alexander Hooton sounds like a cool author name.

Congrats OP, he’s gorgeous! I think we have similar taste in boys names. My LO was nameless for 10 days, we settled on Isaac eventually but other contenders were:
Rupert
Fraser
Tobias (Toby)
Max
Nathaniel
Arthur
I know you have plenty of time to decide but please update when you have!

Hamish? Assuming you have a Scottish link with Bonnie.

YouCouldChokeADozenDonkeysOnThat · 12/06/2024 20:57

Oh he is beautiful op!

He looks like a Thomas or a Toby to me. But he will suit the name you choose for him best ❤️
