Pole on favourite names, please! 6 to choose from!

[CEOD]

And yes, I am being serious! Thanks!

Torquil
Ossian
Rupert
Gilbert
Percy
Hugo

In order:
Fergus
Gilbert
Hugo

Hugo. Definitely not Percy.

Gilbert is the best one on your list

Hugo

You can't possibly call a child Percy!

Hugo is a good name although I think Hugh is better.

Gilbert shortened to Gil is nice.

Ossian isn't pronounced that way in any of the countries it's used in, is it? Rupert and Torquil are short and for upper class twits-sad but true.

Hugo

Patrick! I was supposed to be Patrick but turned out a girl (they didn't have scans back then ;-)

Gilbert is really nice, like In Green Gables :-) I really liked them as a couple!

Gilbert or Hugo.

Hugo James! Love it

Gilbert, because of Gilbert Blythe

Where did Ossian come from? It pops up a lot in MN baby name threads. Please enlighten me in faraway Australia, where it's news to us.

So, I guess we would have had to ask James Macpherson how it's pronounced!!!

Hugo. Gilbert second. Rupert a very distant third.

Percy is slang for penis where I live; the Ossian I know pronounces it osh-an; and Torquil is just awful.

groover I'm in rural Aus and went to school with an Ossian!

I just don't want it pronounced Ocean!

Ossian, like the loch at Corrour
Or the Poet

I don't like Ossian or Gilbert, but I do like Percy, Rupert and Hugo. Torquil sounds frightfully posh!

Percy Hugo and Rupert are my favourites. I love Percy, I think it's so cute. I don't think I'd use it myself but you seem braver with your name choices than me!

Hugo

Lovee Rupert that's on our list and our little boy has Gilbert as a middle name. Actually think Gilbert is a really good name with lots of room for nicknames aa they get older if they wish x

Rupert

Tricky! Hugo and Rupert are on our list and we know a little Percy who is very cute.

I also really like Gilbert but DH is absolutely against that one! Good nicknames and Gilbert Blythe!!

Gilbert

They are all horrid!! Sorry.

I have an Osian (pronounced Osh-an) but were in Wales so no difficulty with pronunciation. It has become more popular recently though. My Osian is 10, and there seems to be quite a few little Osian's around now
