Traditional but not super popular....

[hoppyfarmer]

Hi ladies,
I'm booked for a caesarean in 5 weeks and we are struggling for a boy's name. We have a girl name sorted.
We like traditional names but a lot of the golden oldies are so popular these days that if we had a boy it would be in a class with 5 other Arthur/Albert/William etc.
I wanted Rex but my husband doesn't like it. He likes Matthew but I think of a boy I miscarried at 20 weeks as Matthew in my head as we had that down for him.
All suggestions welcome. Middle name for a boy would be Joseph.
Thanks! X

Sebastian
Hugo
Frank/ Frankie
Stanley

Tobias?

Gregory?

Edward goes beautifully with Alice.

Go biblical?

Ephraim
Ezra
Noah
Aaron
Gabriel
Simeon
Gideon
Isaac
Jacob
Jarod
Joseph
Micah

Under the circumstances you’ve described, definitely don’t go for Joseph but it would be perfectly ok to use it as a middle name.

Another vote for Robert.

My db is Robert Joseph and it's a classic name.
His own ds is Bobby.

Ezra Joseph

Hugh? It is the less pretentious version of Hugo and goes well with Joseph.
