Boys names for my little fighter

So unfortunately we found out after our 20 weeks scan that our little boy has a heart abnormality. I won't go into details but it will mean open heart surgery within days of being born.

We really want to give him a strong, non ridiculous name as he will need to be a little fighter. Smile

Suggestions appreciated. We only have Max on our list so far.

Sorry your scan was worrying, I hope everything goes as smoothly.
As possible.
My son was born at 24 weeks he is called Alexander for Alexander the Great middle name Thor figured he could use the strength Smile
Also like, Alfred (again the great) lorcan, Arthur. Edward. Atticus.

Incidentally my ds1 ?as born at 26 weeks and needed Heart surgery please feel free to pm me if you want.

I've always thought Caleb is a strong sounding name.
Flowers and good luck for your fighter's birth and op.

I like Amos and Angus best

Alisvolatpropiis · 24/01/2015 10:00

Hey bub Smile

Torin is nice, means chief, which is quite a strong meaning I think?

Cornberry · 26/01/2015 17:07

Peter, meaning rock :)

NovemberRainbow · 26/01/2015 17:28

Cassius, the boxer Muhammad Ali's real name.

GlitzAndGigglesx · 26/01/2015 17:31

Roman sounds strong to me. Plus it's a wrestlers name! Hope all goes well xx

Artandco · 26/01/2015 17:33

Saxon
Magnus
Sebastian
Alexander

ch1134 · 26/01/2015 21:52

Louis means warrior.
I'm sure you've heard lots of similar things in real life but my friend's baby girl had heart surgery in her first few days. She's one now and doing really really well.
All the best.

Leo - "Lion".

Sending very many good wishes his way - hope all goes well and you'll be posting photos of his safe arrival/successful surgery on here in 20-odd weeks time.

carbolicsoaprocked · 26/01/2015 22:40

I second Peter, Sebastian and Louis. Best of luck for your wee fighter.

TwelveLeggedWalk · 26/01/2015 22:44

Cassius (already suggested)

Google tells me Evan/Owen mean young fighter

corgiology · 27/01/2015 23:24

Hector
Paris

bluewater12 · 28/01/2015 07:22

Leo came to mind here too. It's a great name.

Good luck little fighter x

A friends son had this , his name is Daniel - he's now 5 years old and in perfect health

I am sorry to hear that your scan showed heart problems. That's really hard.Sad

Aidan means little fire and Fergus means man-strength or courageous man
