Im 39+4 (crikey...) and my boy still doesn't have a name!

Recently been leaning towards Harvey. I haven't seen it about here too much and not sure what peoples thoughts are, anything to consider etc.

Opinions (and any suggestions!) greatly recieved Smile

Not keen on Harvey, sorry. How about Harry or Henry?

MyBreadIsEggy · 03/03/2016 13:21

Definitely prefer Harry or Henry....

I like Harvey and it's not a name I hear too often.

Harry is ok
I really don't like Henry

Love it!

I know a delicious little Harvey!

Fairly uncommon name unlike Henry and Harry of which there are many in our primary school.

I quite like it, and Harley as well.

Makes my think of Katie Price. I think it's cute for a kid and old man it not sold on it as a grown ups name!!

Quite like it, know a teen who goes by RV

I like it. I used to have posters of Harvey Smith in my bedroom (strange child).

PixieMiss · 03/03/2016 17:28

We also have Henry on our list Smile i quite like the "traditional" type names.

Taking all your comments on board, much appreciated.

I know 1 child called and and numerous dogs

Allalonenow · 03/03/2016 17:48

I love Harvey, far more interesting than Harry or Henry, and less used.

I've known a couple of Harveys over the years and they were both lovely people, so I'm probably biased Smile

inlectorecumbit · 03/03/2016 17:49

I know loads of dogs and 2 pubs called Harvey

PixieMiss · 03/03/2016 19:59

I won't tell my DP about the dogs.

He is a man obsessed with names being "dog names".

I want to like Harvey as a cool classic, like Henry or Hector, and I think 10 years ago I would have been able to. But I'm afraid these days I really do just think of Katie Price's son whenever I hear it. I feel like it got way too popular after that. However it's very possible that I am way out of date and it's ready to be used again!

Twooter · 04/03/2016 06:28

I like it.

TrueBlu · 04/03/2016 09:43

Makes me think of Katie price too. Harley or Harlan are a lot better imo

Love Harvey!!
I had a boyfriend when I was little named Harvey and he was the most gorgeous polite little boy Blush

joyfulworld · 04/03/2016 09:51

Harvey is nice. I have a nephew named Harvey. Smile

ascmummy · 04/03/2016 09:59

My youngest little boy is a Harvey James I picked his name last minute I was very undecided too it's a lovely name x
