A OR B

Coby OR Archie?

Middle names Thomas Arthur (family names)

How popular is Archie after MM named her son it? 🤔

Archie is a much nicer name

Is there a third option?

If I had to choose I'd go with Coby. Archie is awful, and it was incredibly common before MM named her baby. I don't like Coby though, unless it's Jacob with Coby as a nn.

Your middle names are great - both brilliant strong names. Why are they being relegated to second place?

Neither

@TFSRM I do like Archie! It goes well with our surname I am just worried about how popular it is going to be after the royal baby! I remember George being used a lot after Kate's first son.

@Divgirl2 Arthur is over used and I am not keen on Thomas for a first name x

@mrvsmrs 2017 Archie was the 18th most common, Arthur was 19th. 2018 Archie was 11th and Arthur was 14th.

Archie was always more common, and now I imagine even more so.

@Divgirl2 ah might just call him boy 😂 doubt anyone will have that as a name 🤦🏻‍♀️

Archie
Coby sounds American and 'not a proper' name to me.
Having said that every child I've ever met with a name that sounds odd to me initially has owned their name and made it sound right very quickly. I think you should go with whichever name you prefer. Stuff everybody else's thoughts. They'll soon get used to whichever name you choose.

Neither! I really don't like Archie! Coby is a little better but not great.

I like Coby.

@Upfeet I think were I live must be a sh.t hole because everyone iv asked likes Coby! But then again some of the boys names iv heard here I think have been made up because I cant find them in a baby book 😂

Is this a joke thread?

@Disfordarkchocolate no why?

I like Coby! I wouldn't want a name as popular as Archie.

Coby is dreadful.

Archie will be very popular bit if you like it does that matter?

Archie and Thomas - Meghan Markle. I think lots of people would make the connection

I don't like either of them. How about Jobey?

I like both,but I think I prefer Coby. But then I like American names.

I like Coby. Or Cody.

I like Archie. I liked Archie pre MM & PHs baby.

Just Thomas Arthur is lovely.

I don't like Archie or Archibald.

Coby is ok

What about Toby?

Archie is often used as a nickname for Arthur so would be a bit weird having both I think. Both Coby and Archie are awful to me but Thomas & Arthur are both lovely.

Agree Thomas and Arthur are lovely, Archie and Coby not so much but it's down to individual preference I suppose!
