Boys names. Peter? Suggestions welcome...

[SoManyIllustrations]

31 weeks with DS1 and struggling for names. Have a DD called D e l l a J e a n already. We want a traditional but not overly popular name. We are leaning towards Peter. Would you?
DH likes Ernest, Arthur (2 in nursery already though), William, Charles. I like ( but have been vetoed on) Sebastian, Rufus, Hector. We both like Edmond and Edwin, but don't like nn Ed or Eddie....
Any suggestions? Feelings on Peter?

Peter is a lovely name & due a revival I think.

Love it. Still wish we'd called DS it. Out of tge 200+ DC I must know under 7 (with most of them being 4 or under), I only know one boy with the name. I always get a bit jealous when we're at toddler group & his mum is saying "Peter".

I'm really surprised that so many people like it, as I don't seem to have seen it mentioned very often on MN, and haven't heard it in RL on anyone under 30!

Perhaps that's a sign the revival is about to happen SoMany.

And then he will be one of 4 in the class! You just can't win with this naming business.

Indeed Nadia! And the thing is, I know it doesn't really matter, any name (within reason) will be just fine, and he probably won't be scarred by our choice. However, the PRESSURE before he arrives is ridiculous!

I like Peter and as someone else said all the grown up Peters I have known have been good, solid decent men. However, I really have to concentrate to pronounce the T properly and depending on where you live in the country, his friends won't even try which would drive me bananas.

Where are you Mojang? I don't think it would be a problem here, but may need to ask a few people to say it to check!
