My scrummy baby boy was born on tues night, I was decided on Arthur William but it does not suit him and his dad hates it!

Down to
Charlie (my fav but really popular??)
Matthew
Christopher
or something along these lines?

Love Daniel and James but already within the family.

My daughter's name is Carrie and double-barrel surname so shorter name best??

Help!!

Took us six weeks to name our second daughter so give yourself some time to choose!

Aaron William? I have one of those and goes so well together.

I do like Christopher and Matthew as well but think Matthew William sounds a bit odd with the two ws being close together.

Kester - the scottish version of Christopher?
Kester William sounds good.

Carrielou - congratulations first and foremost

Matthew is my fav and on our list

Thomas
Charlie is lovely and who cares if it is popular

William is my dad's name so want as middle name. Ds half has half brothers Jamie and Thomas! I really like Charlie andwould put Charles on birth certificate but known as Charlie. It's very popular here, not as much as Archie/Alfie

Keep them coming!!!

Oh I just read Arthur William and thought 'how lovely.'

Not very helpful, I know.

might I add dd was baby pink for about a week before we settled on hollie there is no rush.

spookycharlotte121 · 21/01/2010 21:39

thomas william had a good ring to it. (my grandpa's name)

If you like james how about jamie as an alternative..... goes with william too! My ds is jamie... I wanted james but his dad said it was boring so we went for jamie as a slightly more modern alternative.

I do really like charlie too but then again being called charlotte i am biased!

DrivenToDistraction · 21/01/2010 21:39

Indeed! Why not William?

Harry William
George William
Alfie William

I like Christopher the most out of those (can be shortened to Kit if you don't like Chris).
