Our little man has arrived but he is destined to be nameless!

DS5 arrived yesterday at 9:54 pm (two and a half weeks early!) and with his scatty parents no where near choosing a name! After meeting him though we have narrowed it down to two combinations, both of which we love. They are -
Jeremiah Hendrix
Rudy Hendrix
(Hendrix being a middle name not our surname)
As we love them both we really want to get a wider perspective and see what others opinions are - we have already asked the midwife what her favourite is!

Congrats!

I LOVE Hendrix and would use it as the first name!

Like both Jeremiah and Rudy,with Rudy just my favourite of the two.

I prefer Jeremiah.

But he's your baby.

Congratulations. Smile

I prefer Jeremiah. Love Hendrix too and actually agree with countessbabycham and would be tempted to use it as the first name.

Congratulations!

PorkChopSter · 28/10/2011 21:24

Jeremiah

GreenBlueRed · 28/10/2011 21:27

Jeremiah, without a doubt. Rudy sounds like a 4-year old in the playground, 'Ella is a rudy, she's rude, she's a rudy'.

4madboys · 28/10/2011 21:32

i like Rudi as i have one, but spelt with an i and not a y! :)

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 28/10/2011 21:34

Many congratulations.

Rudy gets my vote, it is a fab name.

Apricots · 28/10/2011 21:42

Rudy definitely

upatdawn · 28/10/2011 22:32

ooh, congratulations!

Am loving the name Hendrix - could that be promoted to first name? If not then Rudy Hendrix is pretty fab!

Enjoy your little man :)

BibiBelle · 28/10/2011 22:40

Rudy

freerangeeggs · 29/10/2011 00:04

I like Rudy, but Jem is a really cool nickname for Jeremiah and might sway me...

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 29/10/2011 00:07

Jem Jem Jem Jem

Congratulations btw. :)

StarryEyedMama · 29/10/2011 00:09

Pref Hendrix as first name but if not, Rudy!

stripeybumpinthenight · 29/10/2011 00:10

Congratulations! Thanks Bear Wine

Rudy is my fave.

RickGhastley · 29/10/2011 07:40

Jeremiah/ Jem is great and works well at all ages.

Not sure I could take a Rudy seriously, sounds like a nickname and too much like rude!

pARGHssTheTwiglets · 29/10/2011 07:45

LOVE Jem but Jeremiah Hendrix is waaaaay too similar-sounding to Jimi Hendrix and I'd hate to saddle a kid with that. Congratulations!

Or, another thought - why not use both?! Nothing to say that a kid can't have more than one middle name...

Kayzr · 29/10/2011 07:46

Rudy. It's very nice and goes well with Hendrix

rockboobs · 29/10/2011 07:48

aaaaw Congrats.

Rudy all the way, yay!
