Help name this baby!

We are meant to be registering DS2 tomorrow. We had provisionally chosen Theodore with nn Theo or Ted, but I'm just not sure. Worried it is too popular/faddy and will date. We went out yesterday to a soft play and felt like every other boy was Theo. I do love the name though but worried he will end up one of many. Do we stick with it or go with something else? Other options were Samuel, Gabriel or something else. What do you think he looks like he would suit?

He look like a Hugo to me! Congratulations ❤️

He's got the look of a statesman so it has to be Theodore. At home I'd call him Theodorable and squish him to bits but he'd be Teddy to everyone else.

He's delicious! Makes me feel broody Grin

Oh what a gorgeous baby! From your choices I like Theo, it's really cute. Or how about Ralph or Sebastian? Bear

Thanks all! We have decided to go with Theodore William. Think i was just getting cold feet. It's reassuring that so many people think he looks like a Ted/Theo/Theodore. Hopefully there are enough nickname options that it will see him well through life!

I love Theo. It was my top choice with DH wasn't onboard. Swine. I don't know any Theo's round here so I don't think it's that common, you might just be super aware of it. I also love Samuel or Matthew.

Ah he is scrumptious! Looks just like a Ted.

He is adorable 😍
If it's any reassurance I have a very popular name for my age, never been the only one with my name in classes, work, even friendship groups, and it's not a problem!
