Our little Evelyn is getting a brother in a short few months and as it stands-he is nameless! We don’t even have a short list, we seem to be really fussy! What boys name would you put with Evelyn?

Thank you lots of great suggestions-some of which we have considered but said no to for reasons that I’m not sure about.

Arthur- BIL struggles with THs so worried he will be Arfuur. Also it seems to be getting really popular.
Alfred-I like Fred but not Alfie, nor that keen on Alfred in full. Don’t like Wilfred.
Jude- is this in the same style as Evelyn? Worried it’s a bit ‘girly’
Rowan-Exactly the same reasons as Jude.
Felix-I’m a big cat lover and I think people will take the piss 😂

I wouldn't not use a name because one uncle can't pronounce TH's. Sorry just seems a weird reason since it's not you or DH and not lots of family members. Arthur is getting popular though

SailOnSea · 10/06/2018 06:54

Antony, Rueben, Hugh

Snog · 10/06/2018 09:01

Cecil or Harold

We have an Evelyn and right now if I had a boy he would be Rory. They probably don't "go" but it's currently my favourite. I also like Zach would be Zachary on the birth certificate.

Evelyn and Isaac
Evelyn and Hunter
Evelyn and William
