Boys names- arrrggggh struggling for ideas!!

[AMI88]

Hello all- so I am a childminder, but have looked after children up and down the country for the last 8 years, so you can imagine the amount of names I have heard, but can I decide on one for my own DC1- no!!

I like (but not love);
Teddy
Henry
Harry
William
Oscar
Arthur
Noah

My OH likes;
Wilfred
Albert
Patrick
Alfred
Henry (a little)
Michael (my late fathers name- but I'm not a fan)

We can't seem to agree at all!
My job doesn't seem to help matters as I have been put off a lot of names!
My OH has a really popular name, and he hates it, whereas I have a fairly uncommon name so I don't quite understand the desire to have something so different!

Has anyone got any genius ideas?
Thanks in advance x

[DogCalledRudis]

Adrian or Hadrian

[AMI88]

I think kit Henry is the favourite- but we would possibly put Kristian on birth certificate! But I do also love Arthur it's a tough one- we have a few now so will wait and see what the baby looks like!!
Thank you for beautiful suggestions! X

[evamummy]

Arthur is great or how about Quentin or Reuben?

Kit reminds me of sports kit - not really a name to my ears. How about Christian or Christopher for a proper name?

[LucyBabs]

Dylan

Thomas

Charlie

Noah

Ben

Matthew

Bryan

Sean

Adam

Cole

Christopher

All my Nephews, friends and my son's name

Best of luck choosing. My ds was nameless for 4 weeks after his birth.

April Rose is lovely by the way

[CarriMarie]

I know a Kristian, known as Kit, and like Kristian Henry.

[ThingsThatShine]

Kit Henry is fab

[threedaystogo]

Kit can be short for Christian, as well as Christopher/Kristoff

[AMI88]

Love Nate, Wilbur, Percy!!

So far Kit Henry F_ is the favourite, closely followed by Arthur Michael F

But this may well change!
It's is a girl we like April Rose (not after teenage mutant ninja turtles) and Lottie Marie.

Thank you for suggestions everyone!

[AMI88]

Hahaha No- I am glad you think so!! We don't know if it's boy or girl- boys names have definitely been harder to agree on!

[dontmakemegoback]

Saul
Leon
Sam
Seth

[Ikeameatballs]

Jonah
Nate
Edwin
Hugh
Percy
Digby
Jude
Samuel
Samson
Wilbur

[NoIamAngelaHernandez]

I have DT boys with 2 of the names on your like list, am pregnant with DS3 and we are using another of your likes!

Great taste in names ;)

[AMI88]

I don't really like. Edgar or Piers- but thanks for suggestion!

Just been told by OH if it is a girl, he is going to tell everyone we named her April after the girl from teenage mutant ninja turtles?! My god men can be so infuriating hahaha

[soontobeslendergirl]

Edgar
Piers

[AMI88]

I currently look after children with those names hahaha not sure how that would go down!

[ItsWarmerInTheSouth]

Louis? Jude? My two favourite names

[CPtart]

Adam
Luke
Zachary
Marcus
Dominic
Edward
Benjamin
Evan
William
James
Lawrence
Isaac

[AMI88]

Hahaha yes Flowery handbags, could be worse similarities though!!!
Thanks all- you have given us some good names to think about, will let you know what we decide on!

[Nowitscleanugobshite]

Love Arthur. Noah, Wilfred, Oscar, and Alfred from your lists.

[Nowitscleanugobshite]

Kitson to me is flowery PVC handbags? I know it's spelled differently but that's what I hear-in my accent anyway? I've only ever taught a girl "Kit"-from Katherine. But have taught two "Topher"s from Christopher!!

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

Really, really dislike Kitson, sorry.

Like Kit as nn for Christopher.
Like Wilfred and Michael.
Love Teddy as nn for Edward. Arthur, Oscar, Noah - all nice.

[Nowitscleanugobshite]

I know two aprils. One has Ross and Scott as brothers. The other has kurtis. (At a push you might get kit from that?)

[Bowlersarm]

I was going to reel off some brothers once I knew your girls name but I don't know any Aprils!

Go with Kit, it's great.

[AMI88]

Hey bowlersam- almost certainly April Rose with Lottie coming in at a close second. I did also love Florence, Hattie, and Jean but there were too many family connections, it wa getting a bit political so we begrudgingly dropped those!

Kitson is growing on me as I say it over and over!!

[CaulkheadUpNorth]

I know a Kitson. I don't know how common a name that is. Kit can also be short for Kester
