Hi All.

Little man (my first) is due March and really quite stuck. I'm in a panic now as had a recent health scare ..Kidney stones.... which was mistaken for labour and brought home how under-ready I am having a cheeky skyve from panic buying labour bag contents on amazon to post this, with only a handful names and most with reasons to rule out. Any suggestions MN'ers? I'm looking for something strong, a little unusual, but not zany (Apple is not under consideration!)

So Far

Seneca - like it, but worried too 'out there', and not easily shortened,
Lincoln - possibly front runner?
Cassius - again I like, but worry will be bastardised to Cassie and he'll be tomorneted
Julius - I really like this but as above, worry about it being changed to Julie by some bully?

Any other suggestions? or fors / against on the aboves?

...and why am I obsessing about bullies!?!?!?!

Thank you All - some corkers. Except you braceybracegirl you are naughty!!

I've combined into a big ol' list and have sent across to DH at work to 'in' or 'out'

Really impressed how you are all switched onto the 'vibe' I was going for, there are quite a few on there that was high up on my list but DH has knocked off. Xmas Smile

Don't like Seneca or Lincoln.

Cassius and especially Julius are fabulous, and I love the potential for Cass and Jules as nicknames. I doubt he'd get Cassie orJulie except as a joke, and it's really not too bad as far as teasing potential goes. Much less teasable than Seneca IMO.

What about Darius, Torin, Lucian?

Lots of Roman names in that series.

Cinna from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.
