Will be finding out the sex of DC4 in a couple of weeks. If it's a boy, I'm a bit stumped as I've used up the names I really love on the other three, so I'd like a name for number 4 early on. For really stupid reasons that make DH go . Don't need girls names as I have them coming out of my ears but if it helps for style, my current fave is Genevieve.

Anyhoo, the other three lovely boys have vaguely scottish first names (not Fettes college standard like Fergus or anything) and I want something that will go.

I'm thinking middle names of Dominic Andrew so what do you think of the following as first names?

Gregor (shortened to Gray)
Calumn
Elliott
Nathan
Daniel

I don't like Gregor, but do like Gregory - would you not consider that?

Elliot is my fave (I'd only use one t), then Nathan I think.

Have you got a Duncan already? I'd choose that if not.

love them all apart from Gregor - could you not just use Grey - I know a wee boy named that and it really suits him

Calum really popular up here but still a lovely name
Daniel and Elliot on a par
then Nathan

If you have a scottish Mc name, and you choose Elliot, his initals will be EDAM though...

they are all nice.
I would go for them in this order:

Nathan (shortened to Nat)
Calum
Gregor (like the short form that youve chosen)
Daniel
Elliot
