Baby Name..

My DP and I are struggling to agree on baby names and I'm now 38 weeks. Confused

We've narrowed these down as possibles and would be grateful to know what others think...

Isaac
Wilbur
Elliott

Thank you!

Issac or Elliot . Wilbur isn’t nice x

sonlypuppyfat · 14/09/2018 15:33

Would you date a Wilbur

EthelThePiratesDaughter · 14/09/2018 15:38

Isaac

LeeMiller · 14/09/2018 15:44

Isaac and Elliot are both really nice.

Wilbur is the pig in Charotte's Web.

ReginaPhalange89 · 14/09/2018 15:46

Love Isaac and Elliot. Think I prefer Elliot . .

Don't like Wilbur at all

moredoll · 14/09/2018 15:49

I like Isaac and Elliot. Wilbur sounds like a cartoon character.

Peachbubble · 14/09/2018 15:55

My vote goes to Elliot

Katjolo · 14/09/2018 16:05

Issac

DramaAlpaca · 14/09/2018 16:06

Elliot is OK. I dislike Isaac & Wilbur is awful.

HollyBen · 14/09/2018 16:08

I like Elliot. Don't mind Isaac. The only Wilbur I know is a dog.

n0ne · 14/09/2018 16:16

I love Wilbur!

Pressuredrip · 14/09/2018 16:17

I love all three

Izzygrey · 14/09/2018 16:18

I LOVE Wilbur! It's so cute and unusual. I imagine a little boy called Wilbur would be a bit posh and old fashioned in a Swallows and Amazon's sort of way - making model planes and spending a lot of time running round in the countryside and always wearing shorts!

Sunflower321 · 14/09/2018 17:33

Isaac sounds like I suck...! Since someone pointed it out, I can't shake the association.

Elliot is great but the different spellings might get annoying.

So I'd choose Wilbur!

Rockyroadmallow · 14/09/2018 17:55

Isaac= i suck
I do like Isaac but I know so many baby Isaacs that I'm fed up of hearing the name to be honest.

Elliott- really really dislike! Sounds a bit nerdy to me

Wilbur- cute but too many associations with animals. Save it for a puppy

💙 Wilbur.

Thanks for all your replies. If we can't agree on one we may just end up just waiting and seeing what he looks like!

@sonlypuppyfat that is going to be my new criteria for names (along with stripper or lawyer).

strawberrypenguin · 14/09/2018 18:55

All lovely. Wait and see what he looks like

WaxOnFeckOff · 14/09/2018 19:04

Elliot by a country mile, Isaac is fine wonders what a Wilbur looks like...

NooNooTheNotSoGreat · 14/09/2018 19:12

Isaac is nice. I hate Elliot and Wilbur is even worse.

Sophronia · 14/09/2018 22:15

Isaac

Shadow1234 · 14/09/2018 22:43

Elliot
Isaac

Not warming to wilbur im afraid

Wilfred maybe? With a nickname of Wilf??

D2018 · 14/09/2018 22:45

I like Elliot best but Isaac is also lovely. Really don't like Wilbur reminds me of the pig from Charlotte's web.
Wait and see if he looks more like one or the other.
