CaspEr ;) and LouiE would be my faves, but would spell them like that unless you want then pronounced Casp-arrrr and Lewis

Love Caspar, Ralf, Bram, Tobias, Willem, Orson, Louis and Frederik. Sorry, not much help but you have a great list! If I had to pick a favourite it would probably be Caspar.

I like Bram, Vincent, Gregor and Willem best.

I love Louis and wouldn't change that spelling.

Would you be likely to shorten any of the names OP? Such as using Toby or Freddie.

Epipgab · 14/06/2017 12:26

I like Caspar, Vincent, Victor, Gregor, Orson, Frederik.

n0ne · 14/06/2017 20:11

Sorry, not changing any spellings. The name has to work in Dutch and English, but mostly in Dutch, so I've gone for Dutch spellings. And Louis is most definitely Loo-ee, not Loo-iss! Unless you're American Wink

No obvious winner, then... Does it make any difference if I say middle name will be Bernard after my dear departed Daddy?

Victor Bernard
Orson Bernard
Frederik Bernard
Willem Bernard

... all sound good Smile

Bram!!

Ralf is too Judy Blume even if the spelling is different

Argeles · 14/06/2017 23:03

I really like Tobias.

Paperclipmover · 14/06/2017 23:15

Great choices.

Bram is my absolute favourite. I'm also smitten with Willem.

Every other boy round here is called Louis so I'd personally steer clear of it.

I'm afraid I can't go for Dirk because I'm old enough to remember a uk comedy programme where Dirk was an uncomfortable character.

Victor Bernard
Louis Bernard
Willem Bernard
These all go very well with Bernard, what a lovely tribute OP.😀
