Can I have some opinions on my boys names...

Expecting DS3, we already have two sons called Samuel and Elliott, and so far our list is:

Connor
Nathaniel
Luca
Rory
Louis
Tristan
Aidan
Reuben

I love some opinions and I'm also open to suggestions but nothing too outlandish or any 'old man' names and has to be more than one syllable...

Reuben is my favourite & very nice with Samuel.

Really don't like Connor or Aiden, but the others are nice.

I love Luca.

I think Louis and Reuben "go best" with your other boys' names, if that's something that matters to you.

Personally, I'm not a fan of Tristan or Aidan and I only feel lukewarm about Nathaniel.

I like Connor and Rory (don't hear this one very much where I live!).

I like them all except Tristan.

Pluto30 · 16/10/2016 06:17

Some others you might like, if popularity doesn't bother you too much:

  • Benjamin
  • William
  • Edward
  • James
  • Evan
  • Flynn
  • Henry
  • Julian
  • Thomas

I think we like similar names. We're expecting a second boy, and Reuben and Rory are on our list too, love both of them. I hadn't thought of Tristan but like it so may suggest that to DH actually! DS1 is Benjamin, which I personally love if you want another suggestion.

Nathaniel is my favourite, not really keen on the others.

maisieclaire · 16/10/2016 06:43

Connor is my fav. But I'm biased cause that's my ds name Grin also like Louis. Don't like Rory sounds like a dogs name sorry. And the others are ok

sophias7 · 16/10/2016 06:58

Luca Smile

Love Rory, Louis and Tristan. Tristan especially sound good with your other names. I know of brothers called Elliott and Tristan.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 16/10/2016 08:34

I love Louis

cosmicglittergirl · 16/10/2016 08:34

Reuben.

Allalonenow · 16/10/2016 08:48

Not keen on Connor or Luca at all.

I like all the others, Louis and Tristan are my favourites, Tristan is probably less used than Louis so I'd choose Tristan.

rainbowstardrops · 16/10/2016 08:49

Louis

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 16/10/2016 08:50

Reuben fits nicely, with your other names.

MumOfTwoMasterOfNone · 16/10/2016 08:51

I agree with others that Reuben goes best with your other DS's names.
Strongly dislike Connor and Tristan.

IceTippedMountains · 16/10/2016 09:13

Thanks guys, yes I do really like Reuben and I would say thats my front runner along with Louis. Tbh I do like Tristan but I am having second thoughts, it's a nice name but it is quite 'out there' for me personally..

RE Connor, it has been my favourite for a long time, although it does seem to be becoming dated which is my biggest concern.

I do like Benjamin but it is the name of one of my oldest friends so thats out. Flynn is nice as well...

Love Luca!

TiggyD · 16/10/2016 09:42

I like Rory the best out of those.

And is it Lew-iss or Lew-ee that you like?

MoonHare · 16/10/2016 10:12

Reuben.

PotatoBread · 16/10/2016 11:55

My favourites are Tristan, Louis and Nathaniel. Quite like Rory, too.
Are Felix and Rufus too out there for you? Or what about Robert or Andrew?

BikeRunSki · 16/10/2016 15:20

I love Nathaniel. Also Louis and Aidan. None of your list are bad choices though.

eachtigertires · 16/10/2016 18:55

Luca is my favourite of your list.
