I have a very gorgeous 6 week old little boy but he doesn't have a name :(

[BabyBoy2017]

He is 6 weeks old tomorrow and we do have an appointment to register him but I am crossing my fingers that I'm able to change it.

The issue is that we just can't agree. My favourite name is Elliot but he doesn't like it and his favourite is Montgomery (I had never heard of this name before I met him). He seems to like really over the top 'posh' names? my offer was Hugo - I thought that was an amazing compromise! He doesn't like that

I'm struggling massively

He is adorable How about Marcus?

Aw he looks like an Elliot!

If he's taking your partners surname (sorry didn't see if you're married or not) I think it's fair you choose a name!

OP lots of great suggestions here. Any that work? Hope to hear your beautiful boy has a name!

He's beautiful! I really hope he ends up being an Elliot

I think Robert is lovely! And he can be Robbie while he's little.

Eden/Edan?

Monty is cute but Montgomery just makes me think of Montgomery Burns in The Simpsons

Charles. Charlie for short

I think the baby in that picture is definitely an Elliot! X

He's an Elliot for sure. Was my favourite name all throughout pregnancy but my OH wasn't keen.

We ended up with another name mentioned on here - Finlay (dunno why we did an a and not an e)

He is gorgeous!

Henry or Theodore ?

Oh lord not Montgomery it's terrible and like a PP makes me think of repressed useless public school boys with ishooooos. It would consign him to an entire school career of piss taking sorry (well, where I live anyway, maybe not if you're in leafy London suburb).
Why is your DH obsessed with "strong" names - is he thinking of a certain war general? Not the best example of humanity I have to say ...

Your boy is gorgeous and deserves a name that won't be ridiculous for life!

Elliot suits him.

Edmund is a great name. Story, not too posh & nn options.

He's gorgeous! Have you decided on a name yet/ I liked your suggestion of Robert.

If all else fails, he could be called Ichabod

Go for Robert.

Little Robbie as a baby and Rob when he is older.

Such an adorable baby! How about

Rupert
Tristan
Bernard (could be Benny or Ben for short?)
Timothy

Oh I knew a couple of Monty's whose actual name was Montague - which i prefer to Montgomery. Montgomery makes me think of Mr Burns and also Grey's anatomy...

He's gorgeous and looks a lot like my brand new Elliot (3 weeks old) so definitely use that name. It is strong but not too common. We've had such a good reaction to his name too. Good luck!

Did you register him in the end OP?

Is there any update on this? I have been following with interest!

Dominic - Dom for short?

Gosh I do hope he's called Elliot.. he's a sweetheart!

Omg what a gorgeous baby. Edmund reminds me of Narnia books.
Robert nn Bobby?
Gabriel is great.
My fave name presently is Francis
