David

Henry

Lucysaysno · 10/08/2014 16:06

Would you go for Henry if it made for an alliterative first name and surname?

Not Hugo

Wishfulmakeupping · 10/08/2014 16:08

Henry and yy to the HH you'd have to have an R middle name though it would be rude not to!

David

I think I'd go for David.

They are all perfectly good, classic names, but David is probably the least popular at the moment.

I would choose Henry over Hugo.

I'm personally not too fond of alliterative first names & surnames, but that's just me.

monkeyfacegrace · 10/08/2014 16:15

You just can't have a baby Dave. It's not popular for a reason Grin

lljkk · 10/08/2014 16:21

I only like David (and Davy is great for a babe). Don't like the others.

ralinax294 · 10/08/2014 16:22

Henry.

freyaW2014 · 10/08/2014 16:22

Aw yes you can! My lovely dad is called David and if my baby is a boy (find out tomorrow)! He will be Alexander David :)

ChanelNo19LoveIt · 10/08/2014 16:23

David. I know lots of hugos and lots of henrys.

monkeyfacegrace · 10/08/2014 16:24

My bloody husband is called Dave, and so is his dad.

Just no. Middle name fine, but not a first name Grin

freyaW2014 · 10/08/2014 16:29

I prob wouldn't do as first name to be honest. But don't like Henry or Hugo..mind you I don't like any boys names and had a real struggle myself

Lucysaysno · 10/08/2014 16:39

Does anyone have an other suggestions? It will be a little brother for Alexander fwiw

Baby Dave would be awesome! A classic underused name. That said, I think Henry goes better with Alexander.

TeaAndALemonTart · 10/08/2014 16:43

Not Dave. I know a Davey which is better.

Henry is way too popular but Hugo is okay.

What about Theo?

Sophronia · 10/08/2014 16:49

David. It's classic and very underused at the moment compared to the others.

Lucysaysno · 10/08/2014 16:51

Not keen on Theo. I also like Charles/Charlie but it is very popular and I know several.

What about thomas? Only other name I like after alexander

Squirm · 10/08/2014 16:56

David is dreadful.

Not overly keen on Henry or Hugo. I'd go for Hugo.

Squirm · 10/08/2014 16:58

David is as bad as Kevin. Dave/Kev. Bleugh.

The Alexander in my son's class has brothers Theodore and Rufus.

TravellingToad · 10/08/2014 17:00

I'd pick Henry

What about

James
William
