Boy names beginning with T

I'm 29 weeks pregnant and my OH and I cannot agree on a name for our baby boy! We had a massive list for girls, but for boys we just can't get on the same page - other than we both are quite drawn to the letter T!

So I thought we had agreed and settled on Theo Edward, nn Teddy (bump has been called teddy even before we knew it was a boy!) but recently OH has mentioned he's not so sure about Theo anymore. I originally wanted Edward, nn Teddy, as the first name, but OH didn't like it as a first name. Edward is after my grandad so it's 100% his middle name no matter what. But obviously we can't use Teddy as his first name if his middle name is Edward!

Thomas/Tom has long been been vetoed along with Timothy/Tim and Troy and we can't use Taylor.

I'm not fussed about whether it's a traditional name, American sounding, a bit out there, I just want something I loved as much as Theo. Anyone got any suggestions??

Just to say that whatever you choose, if his nickname is already Teddy, it's perfectly okay to keep using that when he's born.

I personally think Theo Edward is lovely - rather than working on finding something else just work on changing your husbands mind :)

Patienceisvirtuous · 09/07/2017 08:08

My DS is Theo, it's an awesome name :)

I like Tony too. Tristan is also a good 'un.

Tadhg (or Taig if that's an easier spelling)
