Classic boys name with a big veto list

21 replies

Itscurtainsforyou · 22/07/2015 10:59

We're looking for a classic/traditional boys name. I've searched our family trees and nothing grabs us.

We know what we don't want:

  • no names that are traditionally surnames
  • no names beginning with R, S, A, C or W (we don't want to share initials)
  • not the following (close relatives with these names): david, Michael, James, Peter, Thomas, Luke, Tobias, Nathaniel, John, Daniel, Edward, Matthew, Ben,

Sorry, posted too soon.

Anyone suggest anything that might fit these criteria?

Thanks!
