Third son due next month. We have a shortlist of the following...

Noah
Louis
Arlo

Which do you think compliment our sons names? And what do you think of each name? Thanks! Oh and Louis to be pronounced like Mr Theroux!

I like the name Louis a lot. Arlo is a bit more faddy, Noah is just ok.

Hope88 · 15/03/2012 15:42

Noah.

rachel234 · 15/03/2012 15:43

Finn, Reuben and Noah sounds lovely.

I don't know Mr Theroux but do know that Louis is often pronounced Loo-is, certainly on the Continent (Germany, Spain etc) and also sometimes in the UK. Might be worth bearing in mind.

Louis is gorgeous - and of course pronounced like Louis Theroux (and Louis Walsh too but don't let that put you off :o )

Arlo, it is a lovely name.

or Jonas or Jonah.

atticus is cool, but a but much, IMHO.

StarterForTen · 15/03/2012 18:25

Whoops, Atticus was another thread.

Dylan goes quite well, or is that too magic-roundabouty?

PiedWagtail · 15/03/2012 18:40

Louis goes best :) Also like Sebastian to go with your names :)

whenskiesaregrey · 15/03/2012 20:13

I like Noah the best out of those. Arlo is nice too. What about Toby?

justhayley · 15/03/2012 20:15

I love Noah and think it goes really well with your other DCs

thehairybabysmum · 15/03/2012 20:42

Did you used to take Finn and Reuben to nursery in a bike trailer?? If so I know you (and congratulations!)... I like Noah and Louis best.

HeidiHole · 15/03/2012 20:52

Louis and Noah I like best

MadameChinLegs · 15/03/2012 20:55

Love Louis the most, but think Noah goes better with your names.

randomimposter · 17/03/2012 14:26

All nice names, but prefer Arlo with your other DS names.
How terrifying exciting - 3 boys! Grin

wellwisher · 17/03/2012 14:53

"Did you used to take Finn and Reuben to nursery in a bike trailer?" is a brilliantly middle-class/mumsnet question Grin

I think Noah goes best, OP. Also like Jonah.

No, thehairybabysmum, that is not me! Nice to know of another Finn and Reuben pairing though :)

Coconutty, we are trying to avoid another name ending in n, but thanks for the suggestion anyway ;)

I think Arlo is my least favourite because of it soundling too much like the place Harlow. He'll probably be Noah or Louis. Maybe Noah Louis.
