He is Finlay
I don't need your blessing for Archie thank you. I just think Archibald is a bit much.

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. I'll print off for dh later.

Go with Archie then.

just to mention that we're not actually Scottish so it doesn't have to be Scottish themed

I like Finlay and Rory, we will go for Rory if we have another boy.

Whilst we are on the subject what girls names do you think go with Finlay?

Personally I love Archibald. My friend has one and he's scrummy and has never been teased. Archie is lovely on its own too I think.

lilolilmanchester · 10/09/2008 17:16

Ross was the first name that came into my mind, but reading the other suggestions, I think the "ee" sounding endings (Charlie, Archie, Rory etc) all sound good with Finlay and are lovely names. Harry perhaps?

saltire · 10/09/2008 17:09

Logan would be good.

thenaughtiestgirlisamonitor - thanks, like Rory and Toby

Brightfield - Archibald, seriously is poncetastic and definitely not a match for Finlay which I think is a good salt of the earth type name. Archibald wouldn't go down well at school either.
