I've been getting a lot of inspiration for DC3 from the girls name thread but I'm a bit stumped for a boys name.

What is your absolute favourite boys name?

Alexander. Timeless classic, cool NN (Alex), good number of syllables to balance our short surname. Shame we had girls really!

I can't choose just one.I have so many favourite names,but I'll try to restrict it to two.

Angus and Ivor.

biffnbuster · 21/09/2012 09:24

James or Paul

PostmanPatsBlackandWhiteCat · 21/09/2012 09:28

Leonidas,Ares, Odin or Charon

Gabriel.

If we ever have a DC3 and it's a boy (we have 2 beautiful DDs), he would be Gabriel.

Watching with interest. Expecting a boy in 4 weeks and cannot agree on a name.

My favourite is Jody. Because my dog was called Jody, we cannot name our child after a dog. Apparently. DHs favourite dog name is Seamus, so we cannot call a child that. He is unlikely to ever have an Irish wolfhound if he lives with me.

I can't have any of them for any DSs as one is a very close friend's son's name, one is too close to DD's name, and DP really hated the last one Sad

Malachi (but dh says no)
