Hello!
I am 40+5- we do not know the sex of our baby and are eager to find out!
But boys names are proving difficult....anyone have any suggestions?
I love Otis. My husband isn't sure and prefers names like Tommy & Freddie etc.
We cannot agree! Thanks in advance!🙂

Otis is great! Much more interesting than Tommy or Freddie.

SarahJonesS · 12/08/2017 08:24

Like Otis

Arlo
Orson
Rafferty
Francis (Frankie)

WaxOnFeckOff · 12/08/2017 08:28

Edgar/Eddie
Austin/Ozzy

I think what you are looking for is a slightly more unusual name but with a nickname ending in ie.

Oscar
Felix
Fergus

Otis = lift manufacturer to me.

Thanks everyone. We also have the problem of a lot of our close friends have lots of children and cover a lot of names! Haha so it's very hard!

Otis is cool.

Otto? Orson? Sonny?

Theyhaveallbeenused2 · 12/08/2017 10:11

I like Otis..never met a baby with that name before.

early30smum · 12/08/2017 22:03

I like Otis! If you want something a bit different but not too out there, what about:

Jago
Finnian
Hugo
Rafferty
Indigo
Silas
Jonah
Milo
Frankie
Arlo
Jasper
Wilfred (could be nn Freddie!)
Dexter

I was going to suggest Arlo too! Some other ideas:

Max
Toby
Franklin (Frankie)
Theodore (Theo/Teddy)
Zachary (Zack)

Lauren112233 · 13/08/2017 04:53

Thank you everyone. I do like Arlo but we have a friends baby who's named that! Also Theo is on our list.
I'll share the others with my husband and see where we get! Now 6 days overdue and getting fed up!😐 Thank you
