What are your grandfathers names?

[nomoreminibreaks]

Sorry if this has been done to death but I'm due to give birth to DS2 in 6 weeks and I still haven't fallen in love with a name. DS is Henry so I thought I might find inspiration from this.

Mine are:

John (DS' middle name) and
Arthur (I like this and think it goes but DH isn't keen)

I named my DS after my grandfather, it's a lovely, classic name, (and in the top 5 boys' names ).

James and Edward

Michael
Ivor

Horace and Willburn (they wanted to call him William but he had a step brother called that already. He was always known as Bill).

Walter and Samuel

Joseph and Edward

Walter
Edgar

Patrick (Pat or Paddy to his family) and my other grandad who has passed away is Anthony (Tony)

Jim
Sam

Douglas and George

Bernard and Douglas (Doug). Grandfathers in law are/were Alfred (Alf) and Charles (Charlie).

I quite like Doug/Dougie actually!

Stanley and George

Leon and Shlomo.

My step dad was a Jim, though.

great name, DS2 is James Douglas

Francis (goes by Frank, we were warned as kids to never call him Francis, I named DS2 Franklin in his honour)
Gerald (non-family people only call him Pastor though, I never heard anyone but his wife call him by his name, only his title)

Ernest and Philip

Sidney and John. Both born in the 1890s

Frederick and Albert. Lovely, classic names.
