Overdue and still not agreed on a name

6 days late and we are still undecided on what to call this baby. We both really like Leighton/Layton (and it seems quite apt - late 'en!) but our surname is C romp ton? What are people's thoughts?
Also on the list we have:
Milo
Archie
Ellis
Frazer

Our other children are Scarlett and Flynn

I don't like Archie at all, Milo reminds me of the Tweenies, but I LOVE Ellis, especially with your surname

I love Ellis!

I prefer Ellis, it's a name I've loved for over 20 years but I don't think it suits him where as Archie does? Decisions, decisions!

Ellis is a far superior name to Archie. So much cooler. Far less common.

Archie :-) x

Archer, nn Archie.

Archer with nn Archie?

Don't think he is an Ellis or an Archie. Liking Seth William C romp ton today.

We only had one name for DS1 and when he was born, I didn't really think it suited him because he was enormous. He's 16 and the name suits him down to the ground :)

Just pick the name you like.

16 days old and still nameless, have an appointment to register him in 6 days. Archie, Ellis or Seth? Any other suggestions?

Aw he's gorgeous! Seth William is lovely, I would go with that, congratulations

Penguinotterfoxbadger · 08/04/2015 05:28

What a cutie Smile

Seth or Ellis, definitely

Lunarlove · 08/04/2015 05:28

He is gorgeous! Only have girls, but if I'd had a boy the names I liked were:
Jude
Albert (Albi)
Isaac
Eddie

He's gorgeous and he looks like a Seth William to me!

Smugnogplease · 10/04/2015 23:22

Archie , he looks cheeky:) it will never be as popular as top five names so don't worry about that. My Archie is 11, the only one in his school and he loves it!

Another vote for Seth William C

timelyreminder · 11/04/2015 00:13

Or how about Alfred/Alfie?

Blahia · 14/04/2015 05:30

Ellis :)
