Running out of time.. Have gone off all the boys names in the world it would seem! (I didn't have this problem with my others)
My favourite brother is called Kye, am now contemplating calling the baby tht, even though I dnt love the name in itself.
I wanted something solid, perhaps traditional /biblical. Just something tht won't get him teased in his teenage years and that would suit a man.

bangs head against wall !

Any opinions on Kye or name suggestions would be Greatly appreciated 😊

I love Jonah and would never think to shorten it to Joe. Gabriel is lovely as is the NN Gabe.

Hi OP, we are obliging, but we need an update. 😀

MotherDuckSaid · 11/10/2016 20:33

thanks all for posting :) Very much appreciated. Sorry about the delayed response , this baby is number five, so i dnt get much peace until the last one has nodded off !
I must confess- my other son is called Cain lol I dislike the name a great deal now (we had him rather a long time ago)! My MIL hated the name and that swung it for me !!
I like Elijah, Edwin and Gideon but my OH dsnt :-/
I like Luke, Thomas, Lawrence but there are so many of them in my children's school, i wanted something a little different, but not something which a teacher will read on the register and roll her eyes about !

Thanks so much for all ur suggestions ,

OP posts:
Sugarpiehoneyeye · 12/10/2016 12:50

MotherDuck, you certainly can have both.
Hugo and Margo
Tomlin and Margo
Shame about Edmund, I love it.
Hugo Vincent
Tomlin Vincent or dare I say, Tomlin Edmund 😄

CinnamonTwist · 12/10/2016 16:37

Of course you can have Hugo if that's what you like! I think they go fine together, can you imagine calling both names (when they're playing to come in for dinner etc)? I think they'll rhyme really nicely.
