Me and hubby have been discussing baby names and although we have got a girl's name we like there is not a single boys name that either of us can say, "I like it."

We are having a sexing scan in 3 weeks and hopefully they will say it's a girl otherwise we are screwed Grin

We just don't like ANYTHING!!

I need some inspiration - what are you ladies calling your boys lately???

Thanks everyone for your continued support.

After having agreed we both like Harrison my husband has now said he wants to have a re-think Smile

We are finding out the sex this Friday though so at least the stress of choosing names will be reduced by 50% Smile

Isn't it typical that today we found out we are having a boy Grin

Congratulations on your forthcoming boy!
If we'd had boy(s) we were going to have:
Luke for the first one
Tobias (Toby for short) for the second one
with John as a middle name - as you are going to have. It's my brother's name.
I also loved Lucien (but my DH said no way); Barney; Owen; Theo; Dylan.
Boys' names I have heard and really liked are Rufus and Jowan (Cornish for John and pronounced Joe-an).
Good luck with your short-list.

Congratulations! Boys are amazing! We had the same problem, except there were no girls names that we liked. In the end we had a little boy, so it didn't matter. His middle name is also John. These were my favourites, DS's name is here...

Milo
Noah
Jonah (instead of John, not as well as)

I'm the youngest of five, all my siblings have three children - I'm TTC but there are NO NAMES LEFT!

I've like Harry - taken
Sam - taken
Noah - taken

I'm holding onto Jesse, Leon, Oscar, and Bertie ... my sis due in 4 weeks though! :/

My husband just wants to name any boys after himself...

Current possibilities: Liam, Luke, Harrison and Ross.

Hubby seems quite taken with Christian which unfortunately, although lovely, is also the name of my absolute psycho wa*nker ex so I'm struggling to get on board Grin He also likes Elliot but I'm really not keen.
