Total toff/posh boys names anyone?

[LetItGlow]

I really like them! But, the ones I can think of have to many fault, despite my love for them.

Piers - reminds me too much of Piers Morgan

Rupert - Reminds me of Rupert the bear, plus, you can only shorten it to Roo!

Any ideas?

P.S, please not Tarquin

the poshest boy I know is Kenny (Kenneth) [proper titled/manor house posh], his sister is .... Devon

The Tobys, Jaspers, Humphreys etc are far more middle class (my boys' names have appeared multiple times on this thread as has my brother's!). My nephew was very nearly Reuben.

I wanted to call my boy Douglas but meet resistance because it was apparently posh...I think of it as old Scottish not posh at all. And interestingly it hasn't appeared on this thread.

I know a fair few Douglases (Dougli?) of various ages. All Scottish, none particularly posh.

I know an Orion who is quite posh

The most posh man I know (dad was mates with the Queen, sister dated Prince Andrew etc) is called...

Simon.

Ned
Piggy
Monty

The poshest person I know is also called Simon...

Nicholas
Gregor
Sebastian

Douglas not posh at all here in Scotland . Know lots of Douglas's, Dougie's and Dougs

Evelyn
Jocelyn
Aubrey
Benedict
Neville
Horace

I have an Arthur and am seriously considering Rupert if this pregnancy turns out to be a boy. I love the idea of a baby Roo! My DH loves Algernon (I think he is teasing...)and I named our pet tortoise horatio just so he couldn't suggest it for a future name!!

Oh and I also like Ralph (thinking Lord of the Flies, not the Simpsons) and Elliot!

The poshest person I have met was called Felix and he had a brother called Philip.

Peregrine

I met a super posh 6 year old the other day called Auggie

Guy

Inigo is the English form of Ignatius. Just as Austin used to be of Augustine. And Benet of Benedict.

UMC

I think it would be unfortunate, myself, but a fave Victorian name was Adolphus. Dolph or Dolly as nn
Cecil. ( sometimes pronounced Sees'l)
Jasper, pronounced Jah-sper
Then there's the habit from the 18th century of turning surnames into first names. ( hence Howard if you were one if them)

I love 'Auggie' shortened from August.

Two poshest boys I know, 14 and 12 are Inigo and Barnaby.

Peregrine
Dante
Xavier
Will
Wilbert
Wilberforce
St John (pronounced Singen)
Bertie
Cassius

I came across a Joachim (joe) the other day and thought that sounded unusual and very posh - and had a nice shortening!
Hugh is a great name.

I work at a particularly nice private school, and half the suggested names are names of pupils there! Possibly the poshest child I know is called Montague.

Lawrence
Leopold
Leonard
Edgar
Balthazar
Jasper
Fergus
Felix
Finnian
Slyvester
Tobias
Atticus

Horatian

Gah! Horatio
