Looking for some inspiration really. If you could have any boys name without fear of rhyming, bullying or wtf faces when you announced the name what would it be?

Raymond. After my Grandfather. Won't use it for 2 reasons - firstly I think it's too old fashioned, and secondly we aren't having any more Confused

(If DD2 had been a boy I was planning to hold out for its inclusion as a middle name)

Ooh, I have one of the previous suggestions :).

Nice after my other DC's name appeared on a 'most chavvy' list the other day Hmm. A statement which I think reflects more on the person who makes it than the child they're referring too, I think.

Too many 'I thinks'!!

James

I have 5 DS and had to choose ten boys names in total. I don't have a favourite son but James is my favourite name.
