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

I shall never have baby boy quads, but if I did they would be:

Dominic
Alec
Ralph
Ambrose

I expect Ambrose would hate me.

I have an Alec! ❤️
I love Ambrose. It was always on my lists. The ovaries have a Google ‘Permanently Closed’ banner across them now so, it’s pet names from here on in. 😆

Tell me you didn’t do Latin at school without telling me…

Show quote history

It’s not a name in Latin though.

Baby 10 days old. He’s Leo Alexander but I also liked Ari (pronounced ah-ree)

heartheart89 · 21/09/2024 12:54

Leo

Cattenberg · 21/09/2024 12:52

Leon, Daniel or Alexander

spiderdave · 21/09/2024 12:47

All 3 of my boys names have been mentioned here multiple times, love that Smile

If I had another he'd probably be Joel or Alistair

CoffeeChocolateWine · 21/09/2024 12:34

My shortlist would be...
Cassian
Otis (although probably would decide against this name as I feel it's too similar to my DD's name)
Finn

Always liked Dmitri but not sure it's useable as no Greek heritage.

Sleepnplay · 21/09/2024 12:27

Nathaniel or Tristan. Probably Nathaniel as I like Nate a lot as a shortening.

OurChristmasMiracle · 21/09/2024 12:24

Devante or Declan
