I love Grayson!

ThinkIveBeenHacked · 08/09/2014 13:08

Prefer Asher to Archer. What about Archie?

Not keen on Jamie, but not really too sure why. Harvey ive never been a fan of.

Grayson I like but would end up using Gray all the time.

rockybalboa · 08/09/2014 13:08

Grayson!!! Definitely the better of the 4. Very cool.

curiousgeorgie · 08/09/2014 13:11

Grey as a nn is lovely.. Very cool!

DontDrinkAndFacebook · 08/09/2014 13:12

Not wild about Archer - how about Hunter?

Hadley? Less common than Harvey.

Jamie is common, but it's a lovely name and a classic.

I can't hear Grayson without thinking of Grayson Perry and I'll be honest he doesn't really conjure up an image that appeals to me. Grin

Greyson or Jamie.

Not Harvey - it sounds like an untrustworthy estate agent to me.

I like Archer, but once it gets shortened to Archie at school, you may as well have just called him Archie in the first place.

DontDrinkAndFacebook · 08/09/2014 13:12

Jenson?

MrsBungle · 08/09/2014 13:14

Grayson is lovely.

BreeVDKamp · 08/09/2014 13:14

Really love Grayson and Archer! Also Asher as pp said.

Ludways · 08/09/2014 13:14

Jesse instead of Jamie?

BreeVDKamp · 08/09/2014 13:15

Ps congratulations!!!

DitzyDonkey · 08/09/2014 13:48

Love Archer!

LatteLoverLovesLattes · 08/09/2014 13:50

I love Grayson :)

Jamie - I think it's a bit dated, but not a 'classic'

Harvey - too Peter Andre & Katie what's her name

Archer - it's a sport

Though I feel we have had this conversation on at least two other threads haven't we Grin

I love Grayson but doubt I'd ever be brave enough to use it myself (slightly out there for me, but fab! Gray is a lovely nickname).

Jamie was on our shortlist but DH thinks it might be a little feminine (he knew of 2 female Jaimes - spelt differently but pronounced the same).

Not keen on Harvey at all.

Archer is ok, again a little out there for me but nice enough.

Other ideas:
Wilson
Jackson
Jared
Harley
Hunter
Heath
Austin
Asher

Jamie is lovely. Doesn't matter if it's popular, it's still a nice name. Don't like the others at all, sorry! :(

Of your list my favourite is Jamie :)

Other alternatives I like would be Josh, Zach, Jack, Bradley.

BlueChampagne · 08/09/2014 16:11

I like Archer - you could also consider Ashton or Hunter.

Sophronia · 08/09/2014 17:48

The only one I like is Jamie, but I prefer it as a nn for James.

sonniebonnie · 08/09/2014 23:15

Grayson! Congrats!

itfcbabe · 09/09/2014 08:44
