Expecting baby soon, been very hard to get our boys list....so far it's Nicholas, Charles, Thomas, Simon, Edward.
We already have an Alexander Finlay
We would like a Scottish middle name for this baby....any thoughts on what goes?
Nicholas is my favourite first name but finding it hard to think of a middle name that goes....thanks!

I always laugh at these Scottish boys names threads as I have 3 brothers whose names always all appear! My sons middle name is Alasdair.

Magnus is lovely, but it doesn't really work with Nicholas.

I also wanted Scottish middle names for my DC, to balance out fairly traditional English first names. We chose Forbes as DS's middle name, which I absolutely love. And had DD been a DS2, we'd have gone for Ruaridh.
