Final decision, please help?

[CarolinenotCarolyn]

Hello,

This is our last call on DS4’s name. We added a thread last week about naming DS4, we’re sorry for asking again, but we’re running out of time. (We still can’t agree on the name, plus I also can’t make a decision indeed.)

Here is our shortlist,
Andrew, Ernest, Louis, Alfred
(His middle names will be Augustus Thomas.)
I may rule out Alfred because I’m afraid we can’t have Eddie and Freddie, can I? Or this name can go??

According to our shortlist, which one is nicer, and go with other DS’s names? Our DSs1-3 are Henry Albert (We call him Albert nn Bertie because he was named after his father.), Arthur and Edward.

Please feel free to judge my shortlist, and share your thoughts and opinions, we’re very open to any suggestions. Thank you so much in advance! We’ll appreciate your help.

I prefer Louis. Andrew would add to many A's.

Much prefer Louis.

Either Andrew or Louis.

I think Louis goes best but like Andrew better myself.

I like Andrew but have to rule it out - Edward, Albert, Arthur and Andrew is a no from me. Too many A names going on and then the one odd one out. For similar reasons its a no to Alfred.

That then comes down to Ernest and Louis. I prefer Ernest to Louis, Louis is a bit wishy washy. However if you go with Ernest you'll have a Bert (Albert) and Ernie! If you can get past that, I'd go for Ernest. If not, use Louis.

Alfred could be Alfie rather than Freddie if you wanted.

Of those, I love Alfred most. Gorgeous name. But if you're worried about Eddie and Freddie, Ernest is great. Louis next. I'm not keen on Andrew. Bit dull.

Louis definitely

Louis

Louis.

Andrew can and probably would be shortened to Andy urgh

Alfred - Alfie. Definitely the best.

You can’t use Louis unless you want to look like a total royal copycat.

I’m worried about the royal copycat thing if we choose the name Louis too.

Anyway thank you everyone for your kind help!

Louis

Two out of three of my ds have Royal names. It matters not one bit. Chose Louis!

No-one I know cares about royal babies, indeed I’d forgotten.

So I’d go for Louis.

As long as it’s Loo ee not Lewis.

I love the name Louis.

Louis Augustus Thomas flows really well! Definitely the best choice.

Ernest!!!

Louis by far! Doubt anyone will think you've copied the royals.

I’d say you can’t have Albert, Arthur AND Alfred! So for me Alfred is out. I like Louis best from your list!

Louis!

Louis for sure.

I like Alfred but Louis goes really well with the other sibling names. Plus it will be too many As. It gets annoying with post.

Louis is perfect. I may be biased

Andrew. Louis is wet.
