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 :)

Hermes.

And not the classless English phonetic speakers that would seek to call DS 'Her-mees".

You must insist his name is Er-mezz

Horatio, Tarquin, Peregrine, Dante, Monty, Lysander, St. John ("Sinjun" phonetically)

Poor Hermes will be re-named Herpes pretty sharp in school.

Bookmarking thread for next dog's name.

Sinjun the chocolate lab.

All three of my DS's names are on this thread! And the back up names...

Excellent. My sons first / third names listed several times and about 10 of the back ups! I like most of the names posted TBH.

Dougal
Harris
Alexander
Rory
Roderick

I now a Thornton and a Barnaby. Bruno is quite cute I think.

It used to be quite common in some parts of the country to use a family surname as a first name. You could use your maiden name or your mother's or grandmother's, for example.

Even a common surname like Harrison sounds posh when it's used as a first name.

Parker , a name I heard a very posh mum call out to her infant son.

Wilf
Moresby
Rupert
Jago

Humphrey
Archibald
Murdoch
Alexander
Bruce
Francis
Alfred
Angus
Douglas
Edmund
Edgar
Victor
Philip
Gerald
Bernard
Algernon
Ferdinand
Augustus
Valerian

These I got from a page listing British Dukes. They are the interesting ones-by far the most of the men listed were called Charles, Henry, George, John, David etc.

Wow, Valerian would be hard to carry off.

Isambard?
