That's it really, which name do you prefer?
Really been struggling with boys names but I have always loved Pip, I know most people will not like it though.
So....
Pip Henry Rae
Or
Sidney Thomas Rae

What about
Edward Flynn Rae
Edward Flynn was my great grandad who died of diabetes in his 30's.
We have toyed with Edward before as we like Eddie.

Cracked it OP, lovely ! 😃

Edward Flynn Rae sounds wonderful, OP.

Conjures up the image of a dashing explorer!

And a lovely tribute to your DGGD.

Edward Flynn Rae is great!

IneedmoreLemonPledge · 03/02/2017 13:56

Sidney. He will be an old man longer than he'll be a boy. 😂

IneedmoreLemonPledge · 03/02/2017 13:57

Sorry just read your update. Love it.

But I'm biased on both names

ScarletSienna · 03/02/2017 14:06

Edward Flynn is lovely!!!

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 03/02/2017 15:15

Love Edward Flynn!

All the best!

KlingybunFistelvase · 03/02/2017 15:35

Just to add that Edward Rae sounds lovely too.

Very nice

MrsEricBana · 03/02/2017 18:37

Oh yes that's perfect!! (Teddy Rae )

VictoriaMcdade · 03/02/2017 18:54

Pip and Henry are two of the most annoying characters in the Archers

I think Edward is lovely. If you fancy something a bit different have you thought about Edwin or Edmund?

Poor old Dickens Pip was mocked for his nick name. I'm glad you've decided against it
