My cat is called Monty. He is mostly lovely but does bite sometimes when one least expects it.

Jonty is not a great name, in my view.

Archie- quite sweet but not to my taste.

I would go for Oscar (though agree it's v trendy right now) or Henry.

And GOOD LUCK giving birth!

3 Monty

Love, love Monty (Montgomery).

Jonty is nice as a nickname for Jonathan.

Don't like Oscar at all.

I love Monty, Jonty and Henry - timeless classics that won't date!

Oscar and Archie are a little bit too trendy for me at the moment.

Good luck with the birth!

Good luck!

I like Henry and Oscar about equally, not keen on any of the others but do not hate them and would not think badly of anyone bearing them.

nigglewiggle · 05/02/2010 13:08

I like them all ....

OK, Henry is my favourite and I'm not so keen on Mony or Jonty.

Are you really in labour? How exciting - tell us more.
