Hi everyone! This is my first post ever on mumsnet! Smile

I’m 26 weeks pregnant with baby boy no3. I have a George & an Edward (nn Eddie/Ted) & a husband called Henry.

We love traditional names but as you can see we seem to be following a pattern of royals which was never our intention Grin

So... my favourite name is Hugh. Hubby doesn’t really like it but says I can have it. Most of my friends go quiet when I suggest the name too! Could I pls have honest opinions & alternatives.

Names we can’t use: Charlie, Alex, Oliver, William, Arthur.

Thanks xxx

I really like Samuel, Zachary, Isaac, Leo, James, and Benjamin. I think Hugh is not a name I'd pick but I don't dislike it, your child will make the name, I always find lovely children with names I'd not initially been keen on sway my opinion.x

Ralph means vomit too! ha! Don't let this silly stuff put you off, OP.

George, Eddie and... Theodore? (Theo) Rupert? (Roo)
I LOVE the name Rupert and have 2 very similar named children - would have used it for my 3rd but she was a girl!

I think Hugh is a great name! Much more classic and less posh than Hugo.

Or how about
Thomas
Quentin
Andrew
Louis
Magnus

Our friend from Norfolk (older with the accent) would pronounce Hugh as Who.

Hugh and Hugo win for me.

My 18 yr old has a good friend in her year called Hugh and the name has really grown on me! I also love Henry Grin.

I love Hugh and Hugo equally.

Rupert (Roo) is my 2nd fave name. After my number 1 favourite, Miles.

I LOVE the name Hugh! Tho it does sound a little like someone is being sick when you say it (but i still love it).

My only other suggestions are Andrew and Robert.

Not fond of Hugh I must admit.

How about Hector?

Theresomethingaboutdairy · 02/05/2019 17:07

Love your name choices OP. I think James or Oliver would go really well. I would have said Henry until I read the full post! Hugo is also fab, not as fond of Hugh though.
