We are really struggling to decide on snake for our baby boy due very soon!

I love Teddy but I think it's quite popular now? Also Digby, Barnaby & Huxley but DH not keen.

Can anyone help in our search please?

Not Huxley assuming you're naming a human and not a reptile.

I've recently developed a liking for the name Malachi although I'm not having any more kids ever.

if I'd had a boy he would have been either Fraser or Silas.

I second Malachi /Malachy (spelling from Angela's ashes) great name but we have no Irish connection...
How about :
Hunter - similar feel to Huxley
Archer NN Archie
Everest
Charleton NN Charlie

I knew a guy in college called Cassius, just Cass for short which I liked.

I also had Forrest, Rudy and Tate on my baby name list.

I love Hugo but it's our friends babies name.
Milo is the next door neighbours dog otherwise I'd have liked that too!

Teddy is the 39th most popular name in 2017 but there will also be boys known as Teddy who are registered as Edward, Edmund, Theodore, Ted - perhaps others too so In reality it's more popular than the stats suggest.

I'd stay away from Arlo, it was the 42nd most popular name but has hugely risen over the past few years.

Hunter, surprisingly, is also in the top 100 (78th)

Sebastian is 35th most popular.

I'll offer:

Saul
Guy
Hudson
Nathaniel
