Winston, basil or hank?

[LeonardaCohen]

The title says it all. Ds2 is 4 days old and we don't have a name. I'm too tired to make decisions anymore! Dh's suggestions are,

Winston
Basil
Hank

Or are they all terrible?

I like Hank because of Hank Zipzer. But his full name is Henry and Hank is nn.

..... and which names to you like OP ?
Winston is nice.
I don't like Basil, only for a pet, hate Baz.
Hank = yuk. Sorry.

Yes, I was going to say make it Henry and use Hank as a nn if it seems to suit him. Then there's always the option to use Hal or Harry or the full name.

Henry / Hank is nice
How about

Ronnie
Frank (or even Francis)
Michael (Mickey)
Harvey
Jude
Evan
Beckett
Lennon

How about Kingston
Huxley
Frank ?

My son has a mn proclaimed "dog's name" but I dgaf. Call him something you like!

I second Stanley or Harry.

Rex
Hudson
Kingsley
Adam
John
Edmund
Eric
Morgan

I know dogs with all of those names, sorry op

Great suggestions all. I really like Stanley and also Hugh so will put them past DH.

We like old names and also Scottish ones.

V grateful for everyone honesty, MN's the best! Also DH has history for trying to sneak crazy names past me. Last suggestion was Ivor, which I vetoed!

I like Stanley and Ivor! Not a fan of the original names.

Also a fan of Hugh, DS is Joel Hugh.

Douglas
William
Hamish

Joel is lovely.

Ivor would lead to far too much piss taking as he gets older. So would all the original ones too.

I really like Winston.

Basil Brush.
Tom Hanks.

Winston it is!

Toujeo thank you

How about Bertrand (Russell) instead of Winston (Churchill)? Same generation and same stratospheric levels of poshness at time.

Or Frank (Sinatra) instead of Hank (Williams).

Or Ambrose instead of Basil?

I like Basil, it's a likeable nature name due a comeback IMO. Basil Fawlty, Basil Brush and The Herb Garden aren't at the forefront of entertainment at the moment, so the younger generations won't really make those connections much!

Vincent
Leo
Edwin
Sidney
Nathaniel
Rufus
Torin
Julian
Jasper

I like winston. A YouTube family I watch have a little one named winston and he's super cute.

What about Archer, Bradley, Benjamin, Colton, Daxton, Elijah, Fred, Huxton, Jack, Luton, Maxwell, Nathanael, Rudy, Sole, Trent

Winston. The other two are horrid. Sorry.

What about Wilson? I've always really liked it
