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…

Ahh he's lovely.

What about Rory

Gorgeous boy and lots of lovely suggestions. We are coming across a lot of boys called Arlo, Finn, Rupert and Raffy at baby groups round here. So if that bothers you (it might not) I would say go for something else.

He's gorgeous, OP- congratulations!

He’s gorgeous. Congratulations!

VladimirVsVolodymyr · 12/06/2024 13:09

Asher or Jesse!
Or Moses, I can see a rod in that lifted arm 😂

M4driver · 12/06/2024 13:04

Kit can be short for Christopher/Christian. Or how about Pip (for Philip)?

You seem to like names ending -o, so what about:
Inigo
Cosmo
Orlando
Bruno
Rocco
Alessandro

Owen is what came to mind when you mentioned your other dc’s names

millymae · 12/06/2024 13:02

He's gorgeous! I'm team Rory. Rory Hooton sound perfect to me. Bonnie, Thea and Rory.
Plus when he gets to writing his name 4 letters is more than enough.

WaitingForMojo · 12/06/2024 13:02

My dh wanted Kit!

WaitingForMojo · 12/06/2024 13:01

I was going to suggest Rowan because you have similar taste in names to me, but just seen that it can’t end in n.

Milo
Sebastian / Seb
Finlay (Finn)
Louis
Laurence (Laurie)
Frederick / Freddie
Arlo
Theo
Ted

Caleb

He is gorgeous.

Definitely agree with Jonah.

Other names that go with your gorgeous girl names: Rafe, Caleb, Luca, Milo.

familyissues12345 · 12/06/2024 12:49

OMG he's flipping beautiful 😍

Sleepnplay · 12/06/2024 12:48

Congratulations, he's beautiful.

Rory would be my pick I think. I find it fairly soft, but still substantial. Or Jesse, for same reasons.

Luke
Jonas
Jacob
Isaac

When I looked at the pic (he is sooo cute) I immediately thought Thaddeus. Nickname Tad.

FloofPaws · 12/06/2024 12:40

Aaahhh just seen the photo 🥰 so cute 🥰
Kit is a lovely name, was on my list but DH wanted a longer Scottish name

What a gorgeous boy! I like Kit, I think it's short for Christopher but not sure? Or maybe Cyril, Raphael, Caspar, Hartley, Jocelin?
