My guess - Tyger.

On his birth certificate, it'll be Xerxes de Pfeffel Johnson, but Boris will always refer to him as The Bairn, as advised by Dominic Cummings.

Arturo, Henry, Symonds-Johnson.

Had another thought.

Thucydides. Survived and provided an account of the Plague of Athens.

"Thucydides"

I love it. Little thuccy or diddy for short.

Aneurin hopefully Wink

Crimejunkie · 29/04/2020 15:49

Probably something ancient and pompus

Haha @DragonMamma my brother is called Aneurin!

DragonMamma · 29/04/2020 15:54

@saffy1234

Good strong Welsh name that! I don’t hear it much these days - maybe most of them go by Nye?

hoochymamgu · 29/04/2020 15:56

I love Aneurin, but, fat chance!

Horatio. Or maybe Ptolomy or Cuthbert.

Why would they choose to honour the nurse who treated Boris, rather than of one of those who treated Carrie and the baby?

I know nothing of Ms Symond's taste in names though, which would seem likely to be a factor.

saffy1234 · 29/04/2020 16:24

Yes @DragonMamma,we call him Nye,for years a neighbour thought it was Nige ,and asked my mum how little Nigel was getting on at school,now me and Rhys (DB) refer to him as ‘Nige’ ,and mum (a labour voting nurse of course) is still annoyed by it!

@hoochymamgu - unless he had an epiphany in hospital.
(But fat chance l, agreed!)

dickensinthepark · 29/04/2020 16:28

unless he had an epiphany in hospital.

I'd much prefer it if he'd had a enema in hospital...might get rid of some of the shit he comes out with.
