Just that really , I'm 37 + 3 and we haven't decided on a name for ds! We had dd's name chosen by about 20 weeks but can't seem to
Agree on a boys name .

Dh loves Max
I love Ronan
We both like Rory

I like Max but not Rory or Ronan.

If you both love it then go for Rory. I like Max but not keen on Ronan personally

Rory 100%

Cheeky76890 · 19/08/2014 21:56

Dislike ronan

What about lex/Rex/roman

DramaAlpaca · 19/08/2014 22:39

I love Rory & Ronan.

TheCraicDealer · 19/08/2014 22:43

Rory, definitely, you both like it. Max sounds a bit like a pet name, and Ronan makes me think of the opening bars of 'No Matter What' by Boyzone.

Valsoldknickers · 19/08/2014 23:42

Rónán, but I am biased Wink

justjodie92 · 19/08/2014 23:44

Rory.
But I like Max too.

LRDtheFeministDragon · 19/08/2014 23:47

I like Rory best.

Good luck!

TheWhispersOfTheGods · 20/08/2014 08:20

Rory! Then Max. Don't like Ronan, but do like Rowan or Roman a fair bit.

saffronwblue · 20/08/2014 08:25

I love Rory. Max is Ok. Ronan not to my taste.

I expect you know that Ronan means 'little seal' in Gaelic and so has magial/mythical connotations - lovely stories of selkies and suchlike.

As earlier poster says, would probably work best in Ireland or Scotland.

TwelveGrimmauldPlace · 20/08/2014 09:25

Ronan is my favourite boys name and if I ever have a ds, he will be called Ronan.

I also like Rory and Max though.

I'm not much help Grin

Love Rory.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 20/08/2014 13:44

I don't think of Max as a dogs' name (but I have a 14yo Max myself )
Rory is cute for a little boy but would it be as cute on an adult?

Ronan - nah.

Legionofboom · 20/08/2014 13:55

I love Max.
I can't get excited about Ronan but there's nothing wrong with it either.
I don't like Rory.
