Little boy arrived 4 days ago, have a short list of names but struggling to get the final one nailed. Already have a little boy called Toby. What's everyone's thoughts?

Finn
Ted
Dylan

Don't want something mega popular if possible. Although I know most of those are top 20. Just not sure what that means in reality of number of boys with those names in class etc. Surname is Campbell.

I voted Dylan as I love that, I don't think Toby Ted works as a pairing though, makes me think of a child's favourite Teddy Bear.

I like Ted best but Finn with Toby

I like all of them but voted for Dylan.

The school I would in has quite a few called Finley/ Finn. Personally I would use Ted as a nickname but not the actual name.

Same here.

Have found boys names so difficult, we should have chosen before so want to introduce him to the world but would rather do so with a name sorted. Fingers crossed we can get one picked soon. Do you think a nickname as a name would be a problem?

Congratulations! I voted Finn. All things being equal, I’d avoid alliterative names for siblings, and I don’t love Dylan.

Love Finn! I actually know a Finn Campbell - he really suits it and the combination works well
