Due in September, no idea what I'm having, girl's name is picked, not a sodding clue what name I'd pick if I have a boy though Blush

Traipsed my way through many a website but please share with me your favourite boy's name so I can -hopefully- come across one I haven't seen yet! Thanks collective mind of mumsnet Wink

Naming boys is so bloody hard isn't it? We found out what we're having for this very reason. We need at least 20 weeks to agree on a boys name (we had about 10 hits names we loved).
My list of possibilities;
Alistair
Laurence
Christopher
Michael
Tristan
Julian

(My 9 year old already has one of these names, but I thought I'd add it incase it took your fancy too).

If I ever have another and it's a boy, I've earmarked: Eric.

sorry but it is Gabriel Grin. Sadly dh did not share my Gabriel love, I thought I could wear him down, ds2 was not named for 5 weeks 6 days, and we were still arguing on the way to the registry office.
I also like Fabian and Xavier. Dh liked Robert and John,Grin. Naming the dc was a bloody nightmare.

I can't believe how often Gabriel is popping up! It's my absolute favourite but it was a no chance from dp and I don't know any. Wonder why so many seem to love it but don't use it?

We would definitely have used Gabriel, but had DD1!

There has only ever been one boy's name for me.

Maximilian.

I had 3 girls so it wasn't to be for me.

OkPedro · 24/07/2017 02:08

The only name I hate is John.. what an awful boring shite name 😂
There are some questionable names listed here but each to their own..
please don't name your ds Magnus
