  • Stanley

Love Stanley, not keen on the rest.

Ralph has always sounded stupid to me
Teddy and Albie are nns and imo aren't good names anyway
Dennis sounds grandad but not grandad chic to me. But my grandad is called Dennis so I could be biassed.

I love Stanley, Dennis I haven't heard on any youngsters but quite like, I love Edward but don't like Teddy as the actual name, not keen on Albie and really don't like Ralph it makes me think of vomit

I have never heard of Ralph meaning vomit before but seems like its well known, must just be me.

We know these are old man names, we just wanted something different from Harry, Charlie, Archie- I do like these names I just know friends with babies called these. We are theist ones really to have children so its a case of finding a name not being used.

Just remember you're naming an adult man, not a baby.

sjclarke86 · 09/06/2013 15:42

Well your naming a baby but yes the name has to suit baby-teen - man
