Just found out we are having a BOY {eekkk} really thought it would be another girl.

DH and I can't agree at all on boys names. DH likes James, I like Toby. We need a compromise, can you help?

Lars or Jude

daughterofafarmer · 04/09/2013 20:18

Thank you for the congrats!

Annoying DH isn't having Jude at all. Also it doesn't really go with DD's name. Names I like but DH doesn't are: Monty, Rex, Xarvier those types of names. Basically pretty much all of Fingers list DH has turned his nose up at Smile

We had Kit down several years ago for DD. I am not a huge fan of Christopher, Christian or Kaster. So not sure if we could pull it off a just 'Kit'

I like Oliver and Thomas however too popular. Miles and Elliot dont do it for me. Have gone off Arthur recently.

FingersCrossed has listed most boys names I considered. Apart from...

Hamish
Hector
Amos
Raphael
Sacha
Ivo
Aneurin (Nye)
Abraham (Bram)
Innes

I also thought 'Jude' when I heard your girls names. What about Reuben too?

Thank you so much for all the suggestions. DH has said no to every name I have suggested. Seriously impossible!

Actually I do know a little Joby! He's 3, quite posh.

MortifiedAdams · 05/09/2013 15:06

What has he suggested?

daughterofafarmer · 05/09/2013 15:49

Mortified Only James! That's its. I tell you....arghhhh

He's know said no to Kit too, so literally no names.

He doesn't like Toby and I think James is perfectly nice just a bit popular!
