We found out today we are having a second boy :) However, we don’t agree on any names!! Our eldest is called Dexter. Any ideas of names that fit well?
Thanks in advance x

My DS shares the name Dexter 😁
Other names we considered were Lincoln, Leonard, Issac, Oscar, Kurtis and Harrison :)

Burtrix7... love it, how funny though, my Dexter was almost Dexter Arthur, right up until 7 months pregnant, and then, I don’t even really know why, we changed it! So he’s Dexter George

0htooooodles · 14/05/2019 20:13

Our LO is also Dexter 😊. We also liked Max, and I was keen on Harrison but my husband hated it 😞

fuckitywhat · 14/05/2019 20:13

My Dex is Dexter James.
