Liam

John - a solid name but very unusual these days

NotYoda · 17/03/2017 18:03

John

What about Michael? I think it's a similar 'sort' of name to Peter and John

Don't like Carson, sorry (surname-as-first-name thing)

DramaAlpaca · 17/03/2017 18:03

Liam & Peter.

Kazzawazza69 · 17/03/2017 18:04

Liam

Peter

EasyBoySleazyJet · 17/03/2017 18:12

Liam is my son's middle name and I had a pet ferret of that name so am voting for that

marmitecheesetoast · 17/03/2017 18:13

Peter

I'm going to say Carson! I know people can be funny about surnames as first names, but it's nice and unusual. Not what I'd go for myself but I would like it if I met one.

I'd go for John second. I've been teaching almost ten years in secondary schools and have only taught one. Liam next, then Peter.

BounceBounceSplishSplash · 17/03/2017 18:21

John then Liam followed by Peter. Am really not a fan of Carson at all.

DaffyDildo · 17/03/2017 18:22

Carson

RuthB4 · 18/03/2017 08:23

John, closely followed by Peter.
Then Liam. I don't like Carson I'm afraid.

1horatio · 18/03/2017 10:23

I really don't like Carson... (Reminds me of Ben Carson, tbh.)

I do like John and Liam. :)

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 18/03/2017 11:15

Liam.

averythinline · 18/03/2017 11:17

Carson is cool very different to your other suggestions though...John second of your list but none of them are cool type names to my head ...

averythinline · 18/03/2017 11:18

There is also Karson which i think is the Scandinavian spelling.....

Sophronia · 18/03/2017 11:18

John or Peter

BarInSpace · 18/03/2017 11:32

I like them all, but particularly John and Peter.

CakeRattleandRoll · 18/03/2017 15:20

My favourite is Peter, then John.

buttercup54321 · 18/03/2017 19:15

John then Peter. Not keen on Liam. Don't like Carson at all sounds like carcinoma cancer

Octopus37 · 18/03/2017 19:24

Liam, but then I am biased cause I have a Liam

Fozzleyplum · 18/03/2017 21:28

Peter - but then I'm biased because I have one! 2nd choice John, which might well have been an option if I'd had another boy (Richard was another name on our list).

I don't like Liam or Carson. There's a lot to be said, IMO, for having a non-trendy, but very well-known name. It won't date or label your DS, and no one will wonder about pronunciation or spelling.

mummytobemaybe · 18/03/2017 21:34

Liam

Joeybee · 18/03/2017 23:43

John or Carson. John is classic and strong. Carson is a bit too unusual for me, but I love the name.
