We are due in a few weeks and had a name, but my brother and sil have just had their DS and used the name we were planning on using - William. (neither knew each others names).

My husband and I took ages to decide on one so we need inspiration! He prefers classic names, I'm more open to unusual ones. He is a teacher do has a strong association of certain names to naughty boys! Oh and it can't begin with p due to our surname!

I have a William (called Billy for now) and am considering some of the following for DS2, due in a few weeks.

Jerome (Jem)
Benedict (Ned)
Stanley (Stan)
George (err George Grin)

Can't use as already in family, Thomas or Edward or Arthur.

Daniel is lovely as is Max?

Good luck - what a shame your name "pinched" at the last minute :(

My friend's DS1 is William and DS2 is Laurence but gets called 'Laurie' which I think is lovely.
