I like Arthur, Fraser and Jasper. Darwin makes me think Charles. Please don't call your son Clarence.

AKMD · 11/01/2011 20:55

I like Jasper. Unless you a very posh I wouldn't go with Clarence. I don't like Ellis and not too keen on Arthur but the others are good :)

JiltedJohnsJulie · 11/01/2011 21:06

Arthur.

CammieP · 11/01/2011 21:08

Oooh I like all of them! Especially Phineas, Jasper and Arthur. Seen as we seem to have a similar taste in names, can I also suggest Clement and Eliot?!

BelligerentGhoul · 11/01/2011 21:09

I love Ellis. Not fond of any of the others, sorry. Clarence, Darwin and Phineas are especially bad imho.

I like Arthur & Jasper

The only Ellis I know is a girl, so seems a bit wierd as a boys name to me!

PlanetLizard · 12/01/2011 08:19

I like Jasper, and Arthur is OK.

diddl · 12/01/2011 09:19

Jasper & Phineas.

I like Phineas and Arthur best. Although Phineas sounds quite pretentious and posh, he could go by Finn which makes it more usable.

tummytickler · 12/01/2011 11:32

Clarence is the best! It is high on our list (in fact theonly one dh and I agree on!) I think it is elegant and charming.
Darwin s nice, but as a mn.
Arthur is dull
Ellis is horrid.
Phineas is nice, but I do not like the nn Phin (or Finn)
Jasper is ok
I like Fraser - that is very cute too!

Love Arthur and Fraser.

Arthur - great name.
Clarence - I just want to follow it with House. No from me.
Darwin - I consider this a surname.
Ellis - Again, to me this is a surname.
Fraser - super name.

Jasper - not keen, I associate it with Jasper Carrot.
Phineas - Its a bit poncey IMHO.

I like Arthur and Jasper.

woodytrees · 12/01/2011 14:31

I'd go for Jasper

lilibet · 12/01/2011 14:49

Arthur and Fraser are both lovely

mathanxiety · 12/01/2011 15:34

Fraser
