Please help me pick one of these for little boy due in 8 weeks. I’m going round in circles!!

Oscar, Harry, Charlie or Rory

I’ve always loved Harry and I know it is very popular on the name lists at the moment There’s actually not that many in my area though!

Rory

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 16/10/2018 20:38

Any. They’re all fine.

JosellaPlayton · 16/10/2018 20:40

Harry or Oscar- both lovely, Oscar would be my top pick as it’s a bit less popular.
IMP Charlie is a nickname and Rory is that annoying (female) protagonist from the Gilmore Girls.

BruegelTheElder · 16/10/2018 20:43

Oscar! By far!

papayya · 16/10/2018 20:44

They're all lovely but definitely Charlie Smile

daisypond · 16/10/2018 20:45

I love Rory. Then Oscar, though I do know a few, but all in their early 20s now.
Harry and Charlie are too diminutive-y for me. Though fine if they were actually called Henry and Charles.

Lauren0rder · 16/10/2018 20:45

Rory

Very lovely and underused.

ReginaPhalange89 · 16/10/2018 20:54

Rory is my favourite from your list but they're all nice ! Why don't you wait and see what you think when he arrives ?

MikeUniformMike · 16/10/2018 20:56

Don't like Oscar. Harry is too popular. Rory is nice but a bit tough if you can't say r properly. Charlie is great.

LexieLulu · 16/10/2018 20:58

Charlie

missyB1 · 16/10/2018 20:58

Rory. I know far too many of the other names.

Goostacean · 16/10/2018 21:04

Rory!

lululloveslemons · 16/10/2018 21:08

Oscar 💙 I agree that Rory can be hard to say for some people and that the others are slightly more popular but they are all lovely.
Great choices

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 16/10/2018 21:11

Rory, what a great name !

foxtiger · 16/10/2018 21:12

I like them all except Oscar, but I think I like Rory best. Please don't let anyone tell you it's a girl's name - that is rare and not traditional!

AdaColeman · 16/10/2018 21:13

Rory.

All the others are already far too popular.

Emmafh3 · 16/10/2018 21:46

I think Harry and Charlie are more classic never get old kind of thing. Don't seem to be a huge amount around under the age of 20. I know a lot of children with Rory as their names though....

Pinkgin50 · 16/10/2018 21:58

Rory

Shadow1234 · 16/10/2018 22:03

I prefer Rory.

DramaAlpaca · 17/10/2018 00:01

Another vote for Rory.

Thetimehascometo · 17/10/2018 00:02

I wanted Rory, DH vetoed it ☹️

Sunflower321 · 17/10/2018 08:11

Rory is worse than Rupert if you can't pronounce your R 

Clairee84 · 17/10/2018 17:43

Thanks everyone! Perhaps I’ll wait and see which he suits when I meet him!
