I am looking for a sophisticated boy name which is not over the top.
No Daniel or Matthew kinda names (too normal)
But also not Crispin (too trying to sound posh)

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Xavier Blake Levi Reckstatt is still a strong contender

Highly subjective as already stated. I think it's pretty obvious really just go with a classic names that has a long history of use.

Avery (nn Avi)
Morgan

I am not really sure how Avery is perceived in the UK.

Morgan is my favourite! It’s so underused and lovely. I think Avery is top ten in us for girls, very popular. Morgan wins for me, I’ve only met one and he is in his thirties

Justturned50 · 15/02/2018 10:10

Morgan is quite common in Wales. But chavvy too!

MikeUniformMike · 15/02/2018 10:20

Morgan the organ. Nuff said.

Both my sons’ names have been mentioned here, but only one had made it onto the hipster thread last time I checked. That’s a little bit of a relief...
