Ok only 7 weeks so long way to go but I actually don't really love any boys names! Never even had names with last 3 as found out they were all girls.

So if I list a few names I don't like can anyone try and come up with some suggestions of ones I might fall in love with ?

Samuel
Joshua
Edward
William
Thomas
Luke
Albert
Alfie
Archie
Toby
Matthew
Reece
Ben
Joe
Reggie

Will stop there could prob go on

Op, we are struggling with a boy's name as well. I had a girl's name picked out in two seconds only it turned out a boy. All the biblical names i like are already taken and since we attend a big church David,Joshua and the rest are already running around.
Jethro
Dominic
Those are the ones we have been thinking of. So hard to name a boy..

James? Couldn't see it on your. No list...

I love Edward from your list, but I may be biased as my DS is Edward (known as Eddie). It isn't very common either, we never come across other Edward/Eddies.

basgetti · 05/02/2014 23:42

Sorry just realised Edward is on the list you don't like!

The only other boys name I love is Dara (or Darragh). Boys names are definitely harder than girls!

I have a Nathan, love the name, and he is Nate for short. I also have a daughter called Heidi. I have always thought those names sound lovely together.
