We like too many names, it's ridiculous. We seriously don't have a favourite...

I thought I'd turn it into a little game, that you can help with! Please tell me your favourite and least favourite, I'll then put those into separate piles; if someone then likes the opposite, it'll go back - it makes sense in my head! So, what's your favourite and least favourite (pick only 1).

Oh gosh, I don't know! I'm trying to see which is more liked on here. Is it Alexander?

Luke Walker Grin

LotsofDots tell DH not to be a spoilsport. Or, I know, the committee could come up with your shortlist, and you could have the final say. magnanimous

WiIdfire · 01/05/2016 23:14

Have you kept running tally of favourites?

ANewLittleBoy · 01/05/2016 23:15

I've been trying, but I take one away, when it gets a least fav

My fav is still George too. But from whats left James Alexander Walker or Alexander James Walker. Probably the 2nd one.

McCunty · 01/05/2016 23:16

Or George Alexander Walker Wink

bbpp · 01/05/2016 23:16

I kept a tally! (coz I'm sad and found it fun). Alexander got the most votes overall, followed by James.

OneMagnumisneverenough · 01/05/2016 23:16

Hmm, yes, although all the names left are perfectly fine - we've voted off the ones with most character. These would all be top half of the 42 or me but probably would struggle to scrape into my top 5

ANewLittleBoy · 01/05/2016 23:16

Sebastian was DH's brother's name, so that was in the running for the middle

I think Alexander votes and Matthew votes may be cancelling each other out now.

So you'll end up with the favourite least-offensive, which is James.

But you should probably choose between Matthew and Alexander.

MyBootsAreMuddy · 01/05/2016 23:17

I think you should reinstate Luke, but as a middle name so he doesn't get ribbed as much, so therefore my name vote goes to
Alexander Luke Walker

thumb3lina · 01/05/2016 23:18

McCunty YY to George Alexander!

This is where committees implode. Actually deciding what the decision is, after two hours discussing it.

Yes MaryZ not Matthew. Horrible. Erk.

Mathew is a totally different animal. He likes heavy rock, (ballads, if pushed) but doesn't believe in tattoos. Hes a traditional guy. Loves his mum. Likes his name (you'd hope...)

I said earlier i love Luke. I really do. But if the last name is Walker.. You'd have to be very very sure your dc would not mind.

OneMagnumisneverenough · 01/05/2016 23:21

Alexander Sebastian
James Sebastian
Matthew Sebastian
William Sebastian

Alexander goes best.

But Elliott sebastian sounds ace.

Somerville · 01/05/2016 23:21

Perhaps the one who pushed him out of her fanjo might like to be chair?
