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…

I was going to say Robin but that definitely ends with an N 😂

Needs to be something quite modern and fresh sounding imo as Thea and Bonnie aren't hugely traditional (though pretty!)

Love Reuben but can’t have a name ending in ‘n’ because our surname ends with one and it doesn’t sound right together.

Also love Hugo but know a lot of them 😭

I like Joel but my husband doesn’t! He likes Jules but I don’t! We keep going round and round in circles…
