Barnaby
Hope
Freya

Obviously we don't know if boy or girl! We already have Caspar. Barnaby is DH's suggestion, he is very hard to please and I am just not sure I am quite commited to it. Would appreciate thoughts on any of them please.

Barnaby is nice. Think I would choose Freya out of the girl's choices.

Hmm yes the only Benedict I know is universally known as Ben. Maybe that's his parents' choice tho IYSWIM (and then something different if he wants when older).

Barnaby is a bit too much "Focus Barnaby Focus" see threads on this name before. It's not my cup of tea. Like Hope and Freya tho. Hope is a very short name so better with a long surname IMO - Hope Etherington better than Hope Jones.

Barnaby is superb. I know a couple. Both known as Barns.

Hope and Freya are meh.

Caspar is great too. Good choice.

I love Barnaby. It sounds very nice with Caspar

Hope is lovely. Not keen on Barnaby or Freya, sorry.
