Harry Gabriel. Dh vetoed every name apart from Harry. Gabriel was my choice. If we have another boy then I got nothing Grin

Charlie Patrick. We love it, as does everyone else. Suits our little cutie to a T!

MrsD How many children do you have? That's a lot of names, and only the boys!

Raphael, no middle name. Just my favourite name ever and works well wherever we go (DP is Italian, I'm Englsh and we used to live in Spain)

kenzie charles thomas & nicholas peter

Oops, that should say English!!

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 25/02/2012 21:56

Ican I have four boys and I one DD (who is sadly no longer alive).

I just love naming them. DD only had two names, DS1 had just the three, DS2 arrived with some names (adopted) and we added some more and well I just went a bit bonkers with DSs 3 & 4.

DS3 was going to be my last so I wanted to use my favourite names but then I had DS4 and realised I had loads more favourites that I had to use up Grin

Luckily OH doesnt really care what I do and just goes along with my suggestions. Bless him.

ICanTuckMyBoobsInMyPockets · 25/02/2012 21:58

Sorry about your DD, very Sad
Lots of lovely names, I'd never be able to remember them all! Grin

Quentin Charles

Middle name after granpa.

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 25/02/2012 22:04

Thank you! I do forget them and what order they are in Blush
But then I have to think for a while when someone asks me their birthdays too.

Slack mum

4madboys · 25/02/2012 22:07

i have

Theodore David William (middle names after his grandads)

Oscar Reuben

Dylan Lucas

Rudi Arlo

and if baby no 5 had been a boy it would have been Emmett Tate, she was a girl tho and is Merryn Lola Eden :)

4madboys · 25/02/2012 22:08

mrsdevere i can remember the day and the month of all mine bday wise but have to work the year out by counting backwards on my fingers Blush the drs receptionist was all put out by this and looked at me a like 'crap mother' and i said 'i have 5 give me a break' Grin

headfairy · 25/02/2012 22:09

Luca Tomasso

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 25/02/2012 22:09

I love Arlo and would definately use that one if I had the chance.
I seem to remember us having very similar tastes in names 4mad Smile

4madboys · 25/02/2012 22:12

indeed we do! son no 3 (dylan) was going to be Arlo and then two weeks before he was born a friend of mine had a boy and used the name Shock so i felt i couldnt use it, but tbh he just 'looked' like a Dylan and ds2 had been very insistent that i was infact having a rabbit and not a baby, so Dylan seemed to fit! he gets called Deeby, or the deebster! :)

if i was to pinch a name from you it would be Cassius! LOVE that!

4madboys · 25/02/2012 22:14

oh and my friend moved away so i figured we would use arlo after all, hence ds4's middle name he is most definitely a 'rude dude' tho, my litle roodlebug! Grin

Mindy6 · 25/02/2012 22:17

Charles. He is a teenager now and making all the typical mistakes, but he loves his name.

Loueytb3 · 25/02/2012 22:19

Isaac James
Luke Alexander
Oscar Joseph

And I love them all still. Oscar would have been Louis but it was too close to Luke.

YouCalledYourBabyWhat · 25/02/2012 22:20

Jacob Asher - Asher means "happy, laughing one" and that is all that we could have wished for our boy.

Dewi Henry Theo - He was going to be "Teddy" Theo Dewi Henry, but was 9lb 9oz and looked like brick-built rugby player, so we went with the Welsh rugby player's name!

I really wanted a Diggory. Maybe next time

arabellacaterpillar · 25/02/2012 22:22

I have a Ben Michael - not Benjamin, just Ben. He's been Ben since I was 7 weeks pg and DH just knew he would be a boy! Will always love his name.
