To ask you to name my baby?

[stuckmam]

Because I literally can't. He is a boy. We have two weeks left and we just can't name him.

Oh and Milo and Ruardhi

I wanted Vincent or Clark for DS. DH vetoed those though...grrr!

You really should choose a name,that flows easily into your surname,as some people choose a name that sounds odd for the surname.

I have a grandson named Jacob,which I like, but he seems to get called Jake by everyone except me.

James
Jude
Reuben
Edward
Woody
Benedict
Marlon
Raphael / Rafe
Jonathan
Samuel

Add the surname to it, then say it aloud. Not all combinations work, & you wouldn't want initials that could cause a snigger.

I loved the name Elijah for my sob, but my other half didn't would either have been Elijah James or Elijah Thomas
