We are expecting DC3 quite soon. DC1s and 2 aren't actually called Caroline and Juliet because they are in fact boys. However these are the two names we are considering if DC3 turns out to be a girl.

Our feeling is that DC3 will be a boy and having already named two boys we are going over old ground in our baby name conversations.

I was wondering what boys' names people think 'go' with Caroline and Juliet? I'm not looking for something that 'matches' just interested in the associations you have.

If you have further girls' names suggestions that would be cool too. Smile

Thanks.

Nicholas has come up a few times. That has been on the shortlist this time.

Mathew seems to be a popular suggestion too. I've always liked Mathew, but have never been that keen on Matt as a nn.

Similarly I like Nicholas and Nick is good for an adult or older child, but I really don't like Nicky. Also when the boys heard the name 'Nicholas' a few weeks ago, they fell about laughing as they heard it as 'Knickerless'. That's the problem with going for classic names that aren't in fashion these days. Grin

Helena is lovely but doesn't work with our surname.
Miranda and Rosalind were in consideration had the boys been girls. I seem to think that DH wasn't to keen.

Strangely enough my first thought was 'Parker', which really isn't in keeping much. But I'm putting it in the hat anyway.

I teach two boys called Nicholas and have never heard any teasing on that front. I think Nico is nice when younger, instead of Nicky.

Squirm · 23/10/2014 09:47

Nicholas is perfect.

I think Nicholas will definitely remain a contender. Thanks for your positive comments on the name.

Dd would have been Nicholas or Samuel. It is a lovely name.
