What would it be. No one to disagree with you and as "out there" and brave as you wanted to go?

Peppa I'm not in disguise :-( my Husband quite likes it-I may be allowed! We already have a Rupert and a Lochlan.

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 07/04/2016 15:30

Peppa we should totally have babies together WinkJosiah and Ezra were on our list too. Rupert was almost a Hugo. We like Angelo too.

TwoLittleBlooms · 07/04/2016 15:36

Ezra or Elias

Thank you! Elias has also been veto'd.
I really don't think we are going to agree?! We are both really trying for a compromise and we normally agree on everything! This is just a nightmare

Angus, Hamish or Jura. We're in Scotland Smile.

I have a Douglas and still love the name.

Likeaninjanow · 07/04/2016 15:48

Both my sons names have been mentioned a lot already . If I had a 3rd ds, he'd be Arlo.

DurhamDurham · 07/04/2016 15:48

Bowie

That's because I'm still coming to terms with my hero's death. It would be cool though wouldn't it Smile

Peppaismyhomegirl · 07/04/2016 15:49

I should add, eldest son is from a previous marriage but he had left before baby was born so I names him whatever I wanted and DH has brought him up from about anyway old, so the style of name has to be similar to his brothers in my opinion as it's very important to me, DH would never in a million years have let me call DS this name but agrees it's grown on him and he likes it and suits him. But with this son we just can't get past any of my suggestions. Even tho he agrees DS name actually really suits him and is cool now!!

Reuben
Jude
Elijah

These were all names I love but silly dp said no, so you can have them.

Ds has a name which I also love and which has been mentioned a few times on this thread. Smile

GunShotResidue · 07/04/2016 15:49

Ezekiel, Zeke for short. DH says no, so we've compromised and DS (due next month) will probably be Elijah.

Peppaismyhomegirl · 07/04/2016 15:53

Zeke is in my top 3. DH likes Zac. How can he not see that they are no way alike!

CutYourHairAndGetAJob · 07/04/2016 15:53

Oh, I forgot Zachary

CutYourHairAndGetAJob · 07/04/2016 15:54

Or how about Isaac (nn Zac?)

Peppaismyhomegirl · 07/04/2016 16:02

I know a few zac's and DS has a name that Is much more unusual. I know it's daft but it's important to me that this son has the same "level" of name as I don't want eldest to feel different as he gets older. I realise this is mental and we are very much a family, I just can't get over the fact that I don't want eldest to feel different on any way

Ezra, Amos and Ezekiel were all vetoed by my dp as being too 'weird' for my ds2 - he has a name in a similar vein which has been mentioned but is more popular.

I also liked Idris. If I had to choose tomorrow would still be Amos.

peachypips · 07/04/2016 17:36

Soren or Silas.

Peppaismyhomegirl · 07/04/2016 18:50

Idris we both like, but rhymes with his brothers name. Think having a Harvey and Harley. Won't work. Shame as we actually agree on it!
