Rufus is going to have to be a middle name if used at all (previous threads,but basically someone else has used it)

Siblings are Skye and Arlo and surname is double barrelled (P e r r y - G e o r g e)

If the baby is a girl,we're pretty much settled on Flora Flowers

Osbert- controversial/marmite perhaps,but gives nn's Bertie or Oz Grin
Caspar
Digby
Asa

Caspar. Asa is too similar to Arlo.

Not Osbert or Digby. Ever.

CordeliaRose · 20/10/2013 12:49

I love Asa.
I like Caspar.
Osbert and Digby are cute.
Caspar and Asa both go well with your surname and with mn Rufus.
Tend to agree with Ali that Caspar goes better with your other DC names though.

TallulahBetty · 20/10/2013 12:54

Never heard of Osbert!

diddl · 20/10/2013 13:57

Like Rufus best, but Digby is fabulous.

KateCroydon · 20/10/2013 14:24

Digby or Asa

Very glad you've gone for Rufus btw.

Sunnysummer · 20/10/2013 14:56

Asa in first place Smile, then Caspar, then a long way behind Osbert, then Digby didn't make it off the starting blocks for me!

PipkinsPal · 20/10/2013 15:00

My sister has a cat called Casper and wasn't Digby the biggest dog in the world? Don't be cruel mummy-to-be.

LynetteScavo · 20/10/2013 15:04

I like them all, but they are all quite different, so you'd have to see which one suited best.

I think Digby, then Caspar are my favourite.

pinkandsparklytoo · 20/10/2013 16:14

I like Caspar the best from your list.

ReturnPlacenta · 20/10/2013 16:18

Asa then Caspar.

UpTheFRIGGinDuff · 20/10/2013 16:24
Grin

Perhaps I'll get it all out the way now Return

Asa is a girls name,Digby is a dog,Casper the friendly ghost and Flora is margarine.

All hilarious.

Seems like Caspar and Asa are favourites,then Digby.

Poor Osbert... It's cool I tell you cool baby Bertie,teenage Oz... No?

I don't like any of them except Caspar, but if he's Osbert he'll probably get called Bert, do you like Bert?

Mim78 · 20/10/2013 17:55

Dig by or Caspar seem nice to me. If you like Bertie you could just call him that? Not keen on ozbert personally.

UpTheFRIGGinDuff · 20/10/2013 18:09

Yes I like Bert and Bertie.

Caspar Rufus

UpTheFRIGGinDuff · 20/10/2013 18:52

My only reserve with Caspar,is the lack of nickname potential...other than Cas...there's not much to go on,and I love nn's...
