Ok - following on from my previous thread I dont feel I am doing very well in the boy's name department and would like some help. Anything we come up with I might like for a second but then just feel very meh about it shortly after...

DS is called Gene. I love his name (although lots of people don't!) Should this DC be a girl she will probably be Nancy or Lois. We want something that's not too popular and have quite a long surname, which begins with an O'.

Please inspire me oh kind and creative mumsnetters!!!

Linus. God I love this name, and the s/o sound transition flows well.

Or Aaron

(train of thought being: Gene/50s Americana/Elvis but Elvis itself a bit one-note).
