So we have 2 girls and 2 boys. We r expecting another boy and are struggling with names! Our boys are Alexander and Finnley (Alex and Finn). We have these names

Mackenzie
Ethan
Jenson
Jacob
Cameron

But can't decide! Any ideas?

My ds4 is Jacob, I love it. ds5 is due in 2 weeks and it's really difficult this time around!

I think Jacob goes best - then you have Alex, Finn and Jake - none of the other shortenings go as nicely and you use the short versions for both other boys so will probably do the same this time.

Other suggestions:

William (Will)
Gregor (Greg)
Callum (Cally)

Moo - it's so difficult this time, as last ds2 was a mission to decide lol we have lots of girls names but boys I feel more pressure with! Have u decided on names yet?

Amck- thank you so much for ur suggestions, I put them to dh and he's not dismissing lol :)

I like Jake with your boys too. :) Alexander and Finn were on my list for DS and he ended up being Sam.

Congrats! I'd really like 5 someday. :)

Matthew (Matt)
Joseph or Jonah (Joe)

or going with the slightly Scottish bent of some of your other choices these are nice but don't have the same shortening potential:

Innes
Struan
Torin
Keir/Ciar
Harris
