What would you name him?
Had girls names lined up but wrongly told the gender!

Rowan

Or Dominic.

@CoffeeChocolateWine

It would have been Theo had a family member not just had a baby boy called Theo! Or Jude or Tristan. My all-time favourite boys name is Luke but would never use it with my surname. My DS is Max.
Is it Skywalker?

Arthur. I really wish I'd called my youngest that but I'm 21 years too late to change it.

Robin- I recently met a little baby boy Robin at my son’s playgroup and I just love that name.

Daniel- it was the name I would have gone with if I didn’t use my son’s name.

Samuel- I just love “Sam”.

Congratulations OP! Let us know what you decide Flowers

rainbowstardrops · 16/01/2022 10:45

Isaac, Jude or Xavier

amusedbush · 16/01/2022 10:48

Struan (I’ve always loved it, DH hates it)
Rhuairidh (pr. ROO-ray)
Harry (after my grandad)
Harris
Lincoln (nn Link)
Nathan (nn Nate)

My oddest choice (because I have zero links to Spain) is Arturo, which I’ve just always loved the sound of it. I wouldn’t use it but apparently the German version is Arno, which I would use.

Camomila · 16/01/2022 10:49

Matteo
or
Jasper

I love Theodore but the Italian side of the family can't pronounce it.
