Seeing as no one likes Milton...

[niffernaffer]

..except me , what are your thoughts on my other current favourites?

Innes
Augustus
Aubrey
Bertram

Wish I hadn't already used Ralph!!!

[JumpingJackSprat]

Jesus cant believe youre getting such a hard time over names which lets face it are no worse than the MN faves, atticus, felix, arlo etc which are awful. i like milton best out of your choices and i suspect parents will have more of an issue with an unusual names than other kids will.

[spotscotch]

Sorry but they are all really, really bad. Has you DH come up with anything that is not going to make your son a laughing stock at school and for the rest of his life ?

Sorry, but I am thirding this!
Augustus = Gloop - when your child starts reading Roald Dahl they will NOT thank you!

[MissingMyMarbles]

I know a male and a female Aubrey. Prefer it for a girl though.

[CruCru]

I know an Aubrey - it may not be as unusual as you'd like.

[MyThumbsHaveGoneWeird]

I thought Innes was a girls name but I love all your other ideas. Think Clement needs to go down on my shortlist. Angus would be an alternative for Augustus.
Love Erasmus too. Erasmus Darwin was v impressive.

[UpTheFRIGGinDuff]

I like Mortimer,especially with Clement

[MissingMyMarbles]

I like Charles too (not Charlie).

[LondonBus]

What's wrong with Milton?

[TigerSwallowTail]

Tobias?

[TigerSwallowTail]

I love Aubrey but I thought it was a girls name?

[MissingMyMarbles]

I like Bertram the best, of your choices, but Silas and Austin are great suggestions in keeping with your taste, no? I also like Arthur, and Benedict.

[LittlePandaBear]

Have you thought about Austin?

[niffernaffer]

Its a great blog Duff, thanks. Some cracking new options there. Beginning to get burnout. What about Mortimer? Clem and Mott/ Mort???

[UpTheFRIGGinDuff]

I like Innes...I love Clem(ent) btw,lovely name



Have a look Here it's a great blog,and this particular name list might have something?

[TarkaTheOtter]

I like Silas.

[rockybalboa]

Innes is a girl's name isn't it? Bertram is v v cool.

[hatebeak]

August is better than Augustus.
Innes is nice.

I like Milton! It's the name of my Mum's guinea pig Not very keen on any of the others, to be honest.

[NooMyx]

Milton and Augustus would be my favourites from your options, too.
I like the others, too, though.

[LizTerrine]

Eustace
Erasmus

[SmellsLikeWeenSpirits]

DS 2 was going to be Augustus. I even purposely conceived him to be born in August. The little bugger came out a girl. And I don't much like Augusta

[AKissIsNotAContract]

How about Aloysius?

[Fairylea]

Was about to come and defend Milton solution and cold water sterilising.

Backs away from thread slowly....
