posh/ pretentious boys names ?!

[isitseptemberyet]

Looking for help with 'snobby' boys names ! Apparently that's the type my OH and I like! We like Hugo & Leonard atm but really want something we Love, have nine weeks left,
would really appreciate any suggestions :)

Oh thanks Grass.

Tarquin
Cornelius
Sebastian
Jolyon
Horatio

Rollo not my cousin's name; oh no

pongo ! brilliant lol
We'd call Leonard -Leo, my OH likes Vincent but i'm not keen.
Feel like i've heard every boy name in the world now and still cant settle on one !
The surname is Bentley , I don't want him to be teased, but i like the solid sounding names that will fit an adult too
Thanks so much for suggestions :)

Lawrence

Leonard is so not a posh name!

St John (pronounced sinjun)
Horatio
Arlo
Cosmo
Francis
Rupert
Milo/Miles

i really like Horatio, but what would be a good nickname ??

Jacobi
Hector
Conrad
Jasper

These are what I'd consider upper middle posh names. I think the upper classes play it safer with Edward, William, James type of names.

Rashy

I think Lawrence Bentley sounds great!

Oops, cross post- nickname for Horatio!

Or is Laurence the posh one?

I went to school with a St John we called him sinny a nd there was a seighfreid sp? In my sisters class

Tamburlaine

I'm finding it interesting that, with a very few exceptions (Kit, et al), most of these 'posh' boys names are very 'gendered'. You wouldn''t (probably, although there are always exceptions) find a little girl called Ptolemy or Jolyon. Maybe that's what makes them 'posh' - not being bi-gendered? (Thinking of names like Tyler, Robin, Dorcas etc,,,)

We know a Dashiel...Dash for short

Horatio I'd nn Hero

We loved Korbin but had a girl so we now own a rabbit called Korbin!

It's got to be Digby

All the genuinely posh people I know are known by names which are not in fact their real names. Their nicknames are either shorter versions of their real names, or often bear no resemblance at all to their actual name.

That said I know two Digbys who both have lakes at their family homes..

FWIW I don't think you can go wrong with choosing a classic name. In the right circles, names like Thomas and James are perfect and often chosen
. It's fine to use Horatio Ralph Benedict III if that's what you like, but it might be weird if it looks like you are trying too hard. Nothing posh about hearing "Arabella" screamed by a fishwife across Lidl car park is there?

Tristan
