Help - can't name ds4 - here's our shortlist....

So I have 3 boys and ds4 is due in 9 weeks....

So far I have a George, Thomas and Ollie.

We have a shortlist of names which we like but struggling to come to a decision and DH and I have different favourites.

Shortlist is:
Monty (Montague) - bit concerned that too much like a dog's name and the Monty Python connection!
Hugo
Henry (DH doesn't particularly like it)
Theo (Theodore)
Edward (but couldn't use Ted as short name as with our surname would be a clothes label!)

Can't remember the other names we liked as they are on a list at home but will add on to this thread later!

Any other suggestions welcomed!

Monty I like this best out of your list and think it's a good fit with your other boys.

Hugo - No, hu go
Henry (DH doesn't particularly like it) Not another one!!
Theo (Theodore) I don't like it

Edward - Eddie ?

I also like

Fredie
Artie
Archie

I like Theo(dore), but I'd you're worried about clothes labels it is sometimes also shortened to Ted I am working on DH to use it if DC2 is a boy.

Josh?
Harry?
Nicholas?
Joe?
Jacob?
Douglas?
Robin?
Toby?
Duncan?

I like most of your list, but Freddie is great.

Not Archie. There are thousands of 3 year old Archies.

clary that made me laugh! Yes we do - so maybe I should go for a Colin to get the full setGrin

Hugo or Theo, both excellent names. I find Monty very 'doggy' to be honest. Congratulations!!!

SoYo · 11/01/2013 09:58

Hi Stealth!

Theodore/Theo
Samuel/Sam
Alexander/Alex
Harry
Jacob/Jake
Joseph/Jo/Joey
Charles/Charlie
Dominic/Dom

How come I can find all these ideas for others but cutting our list from 5 of each to one is seemingly impossible! xxx

Once again I've been foiled by the fact that I was only looking at page one....I'll have a quick look down to make sure you've not already excluded lots of these options and then I'll sheepishly move away!

I really like Henry!

EnjoyResponsibly · 11/01/2013 10:02

Edward nn Eddie

hoodoo12345 · 11/01/2013 10:03

Another vote for Henry, it seems to match your others children's names the best.

Littlecherublegs · 11/01/2013 12:59

Theo or Hugo from your list.

Though my first thought was James - goes well with your other names.

Of the George's, Thomas', and Ollie's I know, their siblings are:
Arthur
Frank
Daniel

Or, how about:
Alexander
Nicholas
Jacob
Benedict
Noah
Issac
Samuel
Joseph
Leo
Harrison

(sorry for any repeats!)

Twinklestarstwinklestars · 11/01/2013 13:06

I have a Thomas and an ollie, if dc3 is a boy I like the name Max.

HenriettaChicken · 12/01/2013 06:56

James?

Mosman · 12/01/2013 07:09

I like Leigh with the other boys names
