30weeks and top of our list is Winston but we're not 100% sure if it's the one.

Other names I really like but have been ruled are:

Lucian
Woody
Elton
Julius
Niall
Joel
Henry

I prefer names that cannot be shortened.

Surname begins with B

And sister is Lottie :) not short for Charlotte

Ballonz?

Austin. It's an absolute winner. And it goes so very nicely with Lottie.

Or Quentin - both good Smile

KLou1105 · 23/10/2015 21:07

Hugo :) yes
Monty I do really like but it's my close friends dogs name- so that would be a big weird. Not keen on the others x

If you like Winston then how about:

Walter (DS is at nursery with a little Walter and it really suits him)
Wistan (WH Auden's first name)
Walton (providing you don't mind surnames as first names)
Arlo
Holden

By the way Winston was vetoed by DH but I really liked it, we have a W surname and he thought it sounded too much like Winston Wolf from Pulp Fiction which was precisely why I liked it

Yay for Austin! It's classic, normal and yet different and uncommon (where I am anyway)

This isn't helpful but I love all of the names in your first post!

Esp Joel.. But I am bias as it's the name we've picked for our baby who is due tomorrow :)

Fairylea · 23/10/2015 22:55

Personally I think Winston and Hugo are becoming very popular, heard quite a few recently.

Jeffrey? Jude? Rupert? Edmund? Owen?
