Hello
Our first baby is due in 8 weeks, were having a boy and we've decided on the name Silas we've found people either love or hate it.
What's your views?

Also we need help on a middle name for him to.Go with his last name (Kam) h
Thanks

I like it, it always makes me think of Silas Marner.

The Silas I know has the middle name Neptune!

I like the name Silas, pretty cool.

I'm in the love it camp.

LOVE it and it's SO unusual. My DIL's BIL is Silas and he's the only one I've ever known. Hmm middle name - do you mean you last name is Kam? Think it would have to be something quite simple and short, Silas John or Jon maybe?

Love it!

Silas Austin
Silas Thomas
Silas Frederick
Silas Matthew.

Could you have a family members name for his middle name?
Loving silas Neptune!

It's a lovely name. Your DPs family are rude to suggest alternative names if you haven't asked them to.

Hi ladies sorry for alternative reply, baby's last name will be Kam Which is m Boyfriends last name, weve been even considering having a Chinese middle name (partner is chinese British) do you think it would sound silly with a random Chinese word after silas

Xx
