Hiya everyone,
Ive just a had a little boy and he doesn’t have a name! His sister is called Charlotte Elizabeth and we had a girls name picked out but can’t agree on boys names.

Names we can’t use: Alexander, Daniel, Matthew, Benjamin, Jacob, Thomas, Noah, George, Alfred, Max, Leo, Jonathon, Nicholas

Please can you give some suggestions, as I can’t seem to think of anything I like and can use.
Thank you so much!

Sorry, I included the quote so I could see the list of no-go names but forgot to remove it before posting.

Christopher (although same initial)
Sam/Samuel
Adam
Harry
Albert (Bertie)
Andrew
Robert
Frederick (Freddie)

Have you tried those apps that are like Tinder for baby names where it assembles a list of names you both swipe right on?
