Help! Husband says no to literally everything except Scottish names which I dislike in general for boys. First sin is Francis. We only just agreed to that between us so was hoping for a girlbto use one of the thousands of mutually liked girls names! Any idwas welcome. New to MN . Thanks

Sarah There was a thread here just a few days about Scottish names. Mumsnetters came up with quite a few, and the poster - who was in a rather similar situation to the one you describe - found that there were some she rather liked.

To find it, just scroll down to page 2 of this topic. The thread was called 'Scottish names' and the last entry was on 7 March .

I don't know any Scottish names really except William. Why do they have to be Scottish?

What flora said, you might surprise yourself and find one you like :-)

What about Gregory? I think it has a similar feel to Francis and is also very close to the more Scottish Gregor?

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 12/03/2014 14:59

What is your older DS called? It sometimes helps to give an idea of your 'taste' as it were Smile.

Alexander and James are always good strong names - as is Andrew.

I wouldn't opt for Kyle if you are living in England though.

Arlo.
I hate this name but it is scottish I think.

soontobeslendergirl · 13/03/2014 21:22

Arlo is Anglo-saxon. You might be thinking of Ivo?

WowserBowser · 14/03/2014 09:18

How can you hate Arlo? Shock
