Arthur
William
Joshua

One is my choice, one is DH's, one is a compromise.

I like all of them

I was going to say I like William best but while reading through the thread I started to think how lovely Joshua actually is. Arthur is really cute as well. Which was your pick and which your DH?

William is my favourite.

Joshua
William

in that order.

SootikinAndSweep · 04/01/2014 12:05

Arthur, then William.

Really don't like Joshua, sorry.

MrsPatMustard · 04/01/2014 12:38

William and Arthur are both lovely. Joshua's are ten a penny in my area...

HomeHypno · 04/01/2014 13:49

I vote Arthur. There are about a gazillion Josh's around so I would avoid that.

DocHudson · 04/01/2014 15:38

Arthur, love it.

Others are a bit overdone.

lottiegarbanzo · 05/01/2014 00:51

William is lovely

Joshua was nice enough once it's but been done a million times over.

Arthur, I'm not sure what think. My instinct is it's pretty awful, an old cloth-capped man's name, now a fashionable old-man-style name which will go out of fashion and seem dated again quite quickly, as it's no classic (despite the kings). Nice for a cat or a mouse though.

Gatogris · 05/01/2014 01:13
