I'm due on the 29th of May, the thread moved really fast and I lost track of it for a while. I'll need to catch up with everyone again.

Not keen on your shortlist ones I'm afraid - don't have the unusual factor of your other DS's? (love ds2's name btw)

I like Jude & Kit too.

Also how about..
Saul
Flynn
Stan
Eli
Jonah
Owen
Grant
Kurt
Edmund

Thank you for all the suggestions.I am going to put some of them to DP he doesn't seem too enthusiastic at the moment.

I'm 21 weeks. I think he would happily wait until labour and try to have a conversation with me about names Wink

Rufus as an alternative for Rupert?

Or Reuben/Ruben?

How about Harrison.We do like Harry but thought maybe a bit too different to the other two

My little boy is Noah, I really like Oscar and loved Jacob, but already have a Godson called Jacob.
Our friends called their baby Rupert and when I heard it, I couldn't picture a baby being called Rupert! Now I've met him of course it suits him perfectly ;)

Leftfield - my sister's little boy is Deacon, I love it and I've never come across another (although Rupert will probably achieve that too!).

Hi Beutician, I love Rupert (and Rufus). They would be on my list but DH says they are too posh. I also like Jacob and Fin from your list. I'm afraid I'm another who would have worries about Kyle and Tyler. I'm not mad keen on Harrison either for similar reasons. How about Henry shortened to Hal?

Arg I do like Rufus.Rupert is growing on me a bit I just don't want my child to hate his name and that ones a real marmite name so would be a risk

I almost wish I had another ds to name, as I'm totally in love with the name Arlo.

Oscar is my favourite, but Jacob is great too.

I love Rupert but unfortunately DH has ruled it out for us Sad

Out of the original list you posted I would pick Oscar (which was also on our shortlist)
