Xavier Maple would be a great name :) Reuben would be my next choice from your list.

How about Owen, Alexander, Ethan, Lucas, Tristan, Zachary?

Xavier is an excellent name

Thanks its my favourite but Dh is wavering just stuck on middle names we aren't using family names as very old-fashioned!

I like Reuben Maple, also Tristan Maple or how about Quentin Maple? I don't like Luca at all, it sounds very feminine imo.

Xavier or Luca for me! Not keen on the other 2 at all..

Xavier Maple is the most wonderful name! It sounds like a English 'gentlemanly' superhero :). I can't see anything wrong with Xavier Reuben, but an alternative might be a single syllable mn - like Max or Jack.

I like Louis Maple, pronounced Louie
How about:
Leo Maple
Patrick Maple
Alexander Maple
George Maple
Dominic Maple
Nicholas Maple
Edward/Teddy Maple

Is this your first DS?
We now have 3DS's , imagine how difficult we found it by the last! Lol
Don't make the mistake we did and use the name you like second best as a middle name.
BTW, if you think Luca is a bit "girlie", what about Lucas? (DS3's name)

yes this is first baby. we dont know what we are having but i am just worried at 33 weeks that we have not got enough boys names!!

not sure about middle names its a nightmare! girls were much easier!!

our family names are very old fashion, Brian, Walter etc

I think Xavier is a fabulous name, although there are other good suggestions on here. All of fredandgingers are gorgeous names (my DS is mentioned so she clearly has good taste).
I honestly don't think you can go wrong with Xavier though. It's on my list for number 2 should I have a DS.
