had was James, however DH best friend stole Xmas Wink used it so that's out.

Any suggestions?

Are you looking for a classic name (like James) or a more unusual one (like Honor)?

Assuming classic, how about:

Daniel, William, Edward, Thomas, Henry...

ThePathanKhansWitch · 22/12/2011 14:03

Sebastian

Henry (another vote for)

IAmTheTwitch · 22/12/2011 14:04

I think Hamish or Hugh are fab. As the H sound in Honor as much as in Hamish or Hugh they sound fine together. Are you Scottish?

For some reason Jefferson came into my head, even though it's not at sl 'my sort of name'.

AnotherMincepie · 22/12/2011 15:04

Honor and...

Jude
Felix
Clement
Edwin
Alexander
Nathaniel
Gabriel
Benedict
Frederick
Peter

DessieLou · 22/12/2011 15:35

Honor is a gorgeous name! How about Gabriel or Rupert or Xavier?

PotteringAlong · 22/12/2011 15:37

ChocolatEtVin · 22/12/2011 22:28

Fergus is an amazing name, also what about Tobias or Leonard?

MrsOzz · 22/12/2011 22:28

I could have a Toby...at the rate we're going we'll never make it back to Scotland Xmas Sad so it's shouldn't matter

OP posts:
WineOhWhy · 23/12/2011 12:49

The Honors I know of have brothers called Arthur and Rafe (or maybe Ralph pronounced Rafe)

GlaikitFizzEggNog · 23/12/2011 13:04

How could I have forgotten Fraser!! It's my maiden name and was very nearly DSs name! Honor & Fraser go lovely together!

I don't get the Toby thing though and I am Scottish. Is it a regional thing?

ChocolatEtVin · 23/12/2011 13:35

Jaffa, our Tobias is never Toby, if anything Tobes but normally just Tobias :) Fraser and Honor are very cute together but Fergus and Honor is adorable!

Cankulzof · 23/12/2011 14:20

I like Honor and Fraser, although there's a famous-ish model called Honor Fraser

Fergus is ace

just out of interest, why does your DH not like Magnus?

Ulterior motive for questioning as it's on our list and folks I've stupidly told keep giving me Hmm faces

LoonyRationalist · 23/12/2011 14:29

Honor's brother is called David. HTH.

lottiegb · 23/12/2011 16:29

Corin

jaffacakehips · 23/12/2011 16:33

Toby means willy (hehe) Xmas Blush

I forgot about Honor Fraser....bugger i'm guessing it doesn't matter?!?! Coming round to Fergus. Hamish and Hugh are still up there.

Magnus....{dreams of being 21 and at uni again} he was utterly scrumptious and wonderful. Hence why DH isn't keen also our surname is M so Magnus M is too much.

jaffacakehips · 23/12/2011 16:35

To me Corin is a girls names..due to that I can't get it our of my head.
