Strange boys name

Please help, me and my husband cannot agree on a boys name I've only got 6weeks left and starting to get bit worried. We want something really unusual and different!
Our other son is called Kingsley.
We've sorta made one up last night 'Keo' but any other suggestions would be great :) x

No, don't use a made up name. Especially not Keo. No.

SlinkyB · 31/10/2013 20:29

I know of someone with a Kingsley; her other son is called Statham.

SlinkyB · 31/10/2013 20:31

Yes, Keo sounds too much like "key hole" to me, sorry.

What other names do you like?

I like Rocco that's different :)
Yonny as in the moto gp rider apparently haha.
It's hard wen u know ppl with certain names cos u automatically think what they are like, I work in a children's nursery so I see loadsa kids which I think makes it a lot harder x
