Baby boy number 3 sibling to August and Franklin. We were all set on a name then DH throws a spanner in the works

Top picks:
Henry Rafe
Peter Cillian

The other option for a middle name is too outing if I post it but we both love it and it goes with both names (Henry and Peter)

Very open to new ideas

I love Caspar, Raphael etc but DH isn't so keen...

He's beautiful OP. He's a Rupert.

And oh god! The first toast-post labour is just amazing isn't it?!

Oops, first suggestion should have been Rufus!

He is precious! Rubus? Ruben? Rex? Rowan? He'll tell you himself in the morning!

Congratulations!!

Another vote for Ruben here. Ruben Peter works very well I think.

Enjoy Grin

Roman Peter or Rafe Peter would be lovely! (Think Henry Rafe has too many Rs). Love a family middle name. Congrats Flowers

Oooh he's lovely. Sorry I missed the pic. Hmmm...R names. Roy, Reginald, Ronald, Ronan, Roni? Maybe not. Horace popped into my head for some reason.

I think henry is boring compared to august and franklin. Peter is more unusual these days but still a bit plain. I wouldn't want to be third after the other two, like you ran out of more interesting names. How about cillian as first name ? Julius?

Whoops speech marks should end at 'epidural' toast is fab by the way.

Blurry picture I don't want to wake him. I went from 2cm to him being born in an hour. I also screamed "this is so unfair I wanted an epidural as he was coming out" I think he looks like a short necked rugby player. My smallest yet at 8lb

Will update when we fill the birth certificate I am leaning towards an R name.. Rafe, Rupert, Rufus
