We've had a boys name picked since we were expecting DD2, we still love it so that was the automatic choice this time but now I really like another name but DH still loves the original choice.

So ......... Jude or Archie ?

prefer Jude over Archie...

Jude gets my vote - love it.

We would have used Archie if dd had been a boy. Think Jude's fine but love Archie. Do they both go with your surname and dd's bname?

Jude = DH
Archie = Me

Jude has been our choice since being pregnant with DD2 but on Friday Archie suddenly popped into my head and now I think I prefer it

Edam - Every single person we have mentioned Jude to has started singing Hey Jude .... could we really put him through that for the rest of his life ?

Archie

Prefer Archie, personally. Jude is too Hey Jude/Jude the Obscure for me. Sounds as if the parents are trying to be cool and failing.
