Boys names- HELP!

2ducks2ducklings · 23/06/2017 18:51

We had our 20 week scan today and I decided to find out if we're have a boy or a girl because I had hundreds of girls names to choose from and not one boys name.
We're having a little boy!
I know we have a while to go yet but, help!
We already have a Felicity and an Alistair so it would need to fit with those names. I like quite traditional names. But I wouldn't want a popular name if you see what I mean (I love the names Stanley or William but they're so popular now it puts me off). There has only ever been one felicity or one alistair at school (so far) so that's what I'm looking for this time. Put it this way, if I was looking at a list of baby names, I'd refine the search and start at least popular Grin
However, I also don't want a name that's too 'out there'!
I'm sorry, I'm very picky!
Good luck

I'm also due in November and love Christmas an abnormal amount. Could I get away with a Christmassy name in November??

Thanks guys. Lots to think about. I'd thought about Dominic and that's come up a couple of times, so that could be a contender. I also quite like Laurence. What do you think of that name?

Laurence is a girls name in France, the feminine version of Laurent. Like Florence and Florent

I like Dominic or Quentin.
