DH and I can't agree on a boys name.

I like names like Humphrey, Digby, Teddy.

He likes Sidney, Ronnie & Freddie.

Clearly all ending in a Y/ie so at least we agree on something!!!

Any suggestions please? Preferably not a name in the top 50.

Hit us with as many ideas as possible and hopefully we can agree on one 😊

Sidney is my favourite! We are expecting DS2 in October and we are calling him Sidney!

HJL2506 · 21/07/2018 08:21

And Sidney isn't in the top 100 let alone too 50! I also have a Stanley if that helps!

Montgomery (nn Monty)
Frankie

I like teddy and Sidney from your lists. But I think Teddy is becoming quite popular.

I like Frankie, Monty and Ronnie too. Ronnie doesn't go with out surname and our rabbit is called Monty 😫 Typical otherwise hay would have been a good option for us.

That^

For me, Teddy is a nn for Edward.

You seem to like slightly more unusual, but not obscure names. He likes more traditional/older names.

Suggestions:
Barnaby
Harley
Daniel (Danny)
Benjamin (Benji)
Raffety
