Hello! I’m hoping for some help with baby name #3, gender unknown, please.

We have Albert George Alexander (Bert/Bertie) and Florence Betsy Alexandra (Florrie), and are thinking:

Margot (Maggie); Ruby; or Nancy for girl

Henry; Wilfred (Fred); or Louis for boy.

It’s boys in particular we are struggling with as none of those float my boat as much as Albert did so I’m finding it impossible to decide.

Thoughts / opinions / alternative suggestions really welcome!

Thanks so much

Thanks to everyone who has replied I really appreciate it! The front runners seem to be Henry and Margot at the moment.

Wilfred has the advantage of being shortened to 'Freddie' as a baby and 'Will' as an adult.

Henry and Louis are both (subjectively!) nice names too.

Roland (Rolo) fits well with the siblings names.

I think Margot/Maggie works best from your list, though I do like Ruby and Nancy as well. Really, any of your girl names would work. I love the idea of Harriet though.

I like all your boy names, and think all would work with siblings, but would like Henry best as not so keen on Fred and Florrie (but love Wilf).

Thanks everyone - so helpful! And I agree MercyBodle re: Fred and Florrie - it could make them sound like twins!
