Hello,

This may be a little late if you've already made up your mind, but for what's it's worth:

Jasper - Nice, a bit different
Milo - Not keen - not sure why
Arlo - Like this a lot
Joel - I have difficulty pronouncing this for some reason
Isaac - nice, but depends on your surname as it can sound like "I suck" - if your surname is a noun it may sound inappropriate (e.g. Sara Cox' son is called Isaac - hopefully he has his father's surname rather than hers...)

Good luck!

I think Milo, Arlo and Isaac go best with George, and they're all lovely names.

Personally I'd lean towards Milo or Arlo as they're more unusual names, but I am fond of Isaac too.

George is a nice solid, friendly sounding name, but quite conservative and better as a middle name IMO.

Thanks everybody, we are now leaning towards Arlo or Jasper, we will see what the little fella looks like when he comes out (smile) xx

Isaac and Milo are lovely and go with George. Have you thought of George as first name?

Isaac is lovely, goes well with George and means 'laughter' which is a great meaning.

Isaac is great with George. My DS1's middle name is george but sometimes I wish Id used it as a first name!

Isaac all the way here for me, My ds2 is Isaac James :) I just love the name and Isaac George sounds lovely. Go for it! Good luck with the baby xx
