[redwellybluewelly]

I like;

Reuben
Finley
Tobias

DH likes;
Balthazar
Orion
Thor

HELP!

Sorry I only like Reuben or Finley. My ds has James as middle name - he's Alexander James.

If I was having a boy it was going to be Elliot James (it's not).

I hope you don't mind me saying that I prefer your list to your husbands, Tobias is lovely.

My husband is not taking the whole naming thing seriously - sigh -

My favourites are

Reuben James

and

Orion James

I like Finlay ihave Logan James

I like Reuben, Tobias and Orion.

I wouldn't worry too much about 'matching' the middle name as it gets so rarely used. Spend more time finding a first name you both love!

He may give that impression, but he'll be quick to pounce on a name if he dislikes it. Got long to go?

Of the 3 you gave, I like Tobias or Toby best.

Why not kid him on you're considering Achilles or Troy?

Tobias James sounds best, and also like Toby.

I have Isaac James and my nephew is Charlie James.

It's so frustrating trying to have a serious conversation with dh about names! Ill suggest something like fern and he's like what about sha'nay'nay instead? Sigh..
Just you choose from your list, all lovely names x

Another one here who was considering Elliott James - in the end went with a different middle name (used a family name instead)

i like:

charlie james
Joshua james
Alfie james
Thomas james
Jacob James
Oliver james

Peter James (am biased, Ds2!)

I have a Charlie James. Out of your choices I like Tobias (nn Toby) James xx

David James
Noah James

from your options Finlay - with an "a".

Has your OH considered Kermit? that was my OHs contribution!

I've always liked Nathan and Ethan
Also Keiran
Getting away from the "an" theme...David

Adam

Thank you for the names everyone - Finlay is certainly my favourite, we'll have to see who the stork brings
