Arthur Benjamin - please don't spell it Aurthur. You'll spend the whole time correcting people.

I like Arthur as well. Lovely name. Was on our list.

Cammy007 · 28/06/2016 21:24

Haha I didn't realise I spelled it wrong sorry

I much prefer Alistair.

Sophronia · 28/06/2016 21:28

I like both, but Alistair is more unusual at the moment.

I prefer Alistair, but with Benjamin. I think Alistair is used less often, and I think it'll age really well. Benjamin I love, it's on my shortlist for DS2's middle name.

I like both names for very personal reasons as I have close family members with all those names.

Just think of the shortenings though. Alistair will be Al or Ali and Arthur will be Art or Arthur. Alistair Joseph will also be AJ. Which do you like the most?

Boogers · 28/06/2016 21:32

That should be Art or Archie! Damn autocorrect!

RaeSkywalker · 28/06/2016 21:34

Arthur.

Raines100 · 28/06/2016 21:48

Alistair by a mile.

NapQueen · 28/06/2016 21:50

Alistair.

smartyclogs · 28/06/2016 22:35

Neither.
Prefer your middle names. Joseph Arthur sounds nice to me.

nectarini1983 · 28/06/2016 22:55

Joseph Benjamin sounds best to me.. (not a fan of Arthur or Alistair I'm afraid)

marblestatue · 29/06/2016 00:47

Alistair Joseph

LowAMH · 29/06/2016 01:04

Alistair Joseph

queenoftheboys · 29/06/2016 01:12

Alistair's an excellent name - I have one and it's worked well for him. Smile I like Arthur too though!

Arthur Benjamin is a grand name!
