Argh, I'm stuck and looking for some inspiration please.

I have a DS called Harris, 2 years after we named him there is a Harris every where I turn. Just found out we are having a DS2. I had my heart set on Struan but they are popping up all over the place.

We are toying over Angus and Innes but not really loving either as much.

Any thoughts? Smile

Naked? I meant NAMED 😂.

Bloody autocorrect. Obsessed with nudity as ever.

Ranald?

I know 3 Innes under 3... getting popular. Hamish would be my choice but also know a Ramsey as a first name which I like a lot.

I love Lachlan - there’s a boy in DS’s club called Lachlan - his dad is Scottish, (we are in SE) and he pronounces it Lochlan - we toyed with a Scottish name for our new arrival as DH is half Scottish, one of the names is vaguely Celtic so that will do lol

Definitely not Ian. Ian Brodie sounds to similar to Ian Brady. Sorry.

Love Lachlan I considered it if baby was a boy but we're expecting a girl :)
