I think Henry goes best with Augie and Frank

Emerson
Sylvester
Dane
Whittaker
Gregory

GLLU · 08/03/2017 23:13

Rafe is nice and slightly unusual like your other two boys. Also like Raphael. You can't have something as plain as Peter with those sibling names.

Lincoln

WankersHacksandThieves · 08/03/2017 23:32

I agree GLLU - I like Peter but I think that and Henry are too "normal" but I'm not a big fan of most of the others with your current boys names.

Piers would be better than Peter I think.

ClaryIsTheBest · 08/03/2017 23:40

Henry: nice
Peter: no, not with the other names
Cillian: Yes! :)

Vincent, Emmet, Anton, Ludo, Cedric, Mungo, Antonius, Marcus, Alvin, Milo, Yorik...

SchnitzelVonCrumb · 08/03/2017 23:42

I guess because Franklin is always called Frank we thought it was a fairly normal name and went with Peter and Henry!

We do like strong sounding names and have always said that August can be Gus if he doesn't like Augie/August but he loves his name

Stanley.

But if I could suggest one- Sidney/Sid

OhTheRoses · 09/03/2017 00:54

It's Ralph. Pronunciation Rafe.

SchnitzelVonCrumb · 09/03/2017 03:20

Rafe is a name too - and less likely to be pronounced as Ralph

CocoLoco87 · 09/03/2017 04:35

I love Rafe! Then Stanley would be my next choice,

Gummibears · 09/03/2017 06:55

August, Franklin &
Rafe
Stanley
Quentin
Otis
Dominic

MrsGB2225 · 09/03/2017 06:57

Raphael or Henry

Yeahfine · 09/03/2017 07:03

Henry.

GLLU · 09/03/2017 07:16

Isambard
Otis
Barnaby

ClaryIsTheBest · 09/03/2017 11:14

Well, I imagine Milo is a tasty drink...? ;)
But I just really like the name (but we unfortunately can't use it. I have cousins with the feminine and masculine version of this name already...)

I think Raffael or Gabriel would be really cool as well :)!

I'm not a fan of Ralph. Rafe is nice but I personally do prefer Raffael :)

ClaryIsTheBest · 09/03/2017 11:14

Betram? Frederick? Ulrick? Idris?

ClarkWGriswold · 09/03/2017 11:21

I like Henry, Rafe and Cillian. I love the name Cillian and would have used it if we had a DS as we also have Gaelic names for DDs

BingThing · 09/03/2017 15:05

Rafe and Stanley from your list. Like Gabriel the best from the names suggested so far.

228agreenend · 09/03/2017 15:18

Henry - don't like
Peter - doesn't go with your other names
Rafe - short for Rafferty?

Quite like other names

Alternatives:
Jethro
Conor
Leo
Seth
Gene
William/Bill
Vincent
Dirk
Cedric
Lloyd

NotFromAJedi · 09/03/2017 15:49
