Green anyway enough about his name - get us another pic up. We're having withdrawals here Wink

I'm going to go against the grain and say that i think he could carry of Duane as he's so beautiful.

But Dominic would be better. I think he looks like a Daniel. (Not Danny - just Daniel).

OP, he is absolutely bloody beautiful! Most babies look like potatoes but he's just gorgeous.

Not a fan of Duane or Asa - they both seem a little chavvy (sorry).

Love Rory though - he definitely looks like a Rory!

Spencer is nice as is Dominic but Rory is my favourite.

More pics, please, he's just lovely!

I agree Greg in that If anyone could turn around the fortunes of them and Duane this boy could!

Mrsknackered · 25/04/2017 19:36

My goodness he is amazing, I love Asa it's a great name.
I like Rory too.
Not keen on Henry/Dominic.
I want to like Duane, I just can't!

Sounds like a gangster

Asa is horrible, Think ASDA

MyNameIsMooMoo · 25/04/2017 22:15

No one of his generation will have any negative associations with Duane, and those who do will be dying off.

Are both names seen like that?

shakeyospeare · 26/04/2017 18:42

Yeah... But that's only through personal experience. I really dislike Asa also - although it's marginally better than Duane.

Names are almost like a shop window - you land a baby with a crappy name and they're either spelling it out for the rest of their lives or they're pigeonholed.

Hope I've not offended anyone - just experience and opinion :)

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 26/04/2017 18:46

He's a lovely little baby who looks like a Dominic.

dotdotdotmustdash · 26/04/2017 21:20

Dominic or Rory for me (or Ben, since he looks like my Ds). He's a beautiful boy who will grow up to be a handsome man - he needs a strong name and either of these would suit him. Congratulations.

MyNameIsntTaken · 27/04/2017 14:54

Aww he's too too cute! I vote for calling him Mr cutie wootie. He's gorgeous. Congratulations!

baconandmushrooms · 27/04/2017 14:56

He's adorable.

One heard Asa as short for Isaac.

LuluJakey1 · 28/04/2017 06:55

Cutie McCuteface - he is lovely 🙂
