Just a random list of boys names which are circulating in my head for a possible DS2:

Elliot
Joseph
Xavier
Nicholas
Christian
Hugo

A bit of a mixed bag I know. DS1 is George. I want something which is not overly popular but doesn't scream "I am a pretentious wanker" either.

Thanks!

Xavier - fab, absolutely love it, but imagine some people would struggle with pronunciation. Also not sure how well it goes with George, which is much more solid and traditional.

Nicholas - solid, handsome and classic, and not overly popular nowadays. Love Nico as a nn.
Hugo - nice, though getting rather trendy I think.
Christian - nice. Kit is a lovely nn.
Joseph - inoffensive but incredibly dull. Have taught dozens of them.
Elliot - not sure why, but have never liked this name.

On balance, would probably go with Nicholas or Christian, as they go best with George (although Christian has a slightly different 'feel' to it imo)

Joseph my favourite- also like Christian but put off by current 'shades of grey' craze!!!
