We have settled on lots of names and then changed our minds.
Time is running out.

Some lovely ideas, we have gone with Joseph. Thanks for all the help.

Great choice
If I had another boy his name would have been Joseph

Probably Christopher but would still be considering Daniel or Matthew.

Alexander or William would be my absolute preferred options but we can't use those for various reasons.

Moominmoko · 26/09/2024 14:34

Currently expecting dc5 and if it's our first boy he'll be Asa (dh's favourite) or Sullivan (my favourite). I'm quite taken with Levi too.

Ydkiml · 24/09/2024 23:59

Dane or Reed

Conor!

Am805463 · 22/09/2024 22:09

Sullivan

Really wish I’d chosen it for ds4 but dh didn’t want it.

Tadseuz. From Death in Venice...

It's actually Tadeusz 😂 Correcting in case someone does want to use this name... unlikely though 😅

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 21/09/2024 21:45

William - timeless classic that doesn’t give away age or background, internationally popular, great namesakes and a variety of nn choice.

Or maybe Alexander for the exact same reasons.

James or Edward would be on list for the same too - but admittedly they are less internationally popular.
