Baby names that make you think of chubby babies

If this is just a ‘me’ thing then sorry ... but I seem to like boys names that make me think of a baby boy with chunky legs and chubby cheeks.

Examples that give me this image are names like George, Gus, Jacob, Elijah, Stanley, Louis etc.

My OH dislikes all of those names, he had almost agreed on Elijah but now says he has gone off it.
So is anyone else able to understand what I mean and give me names that conjure up similar in your mind.

They don’t have to be old fashioned type names as my taste is pretty varied... they were just the names I could think of off the top of my head.

It may just be that thinks of chubby cheeks when I hear these names and no one understands what I mean... but google certainly didn’t help so I unfortunately was left with little choice but to expose my unique preference of boy names Grin

Ohhh I’m loving these... I’m glad people understood what I meant Grin thank you.

Keep them coming please, I’m going to run some past OH in the morning and he will probably tell me he hates them all and I will be back to fantasising about running away and raising chubby baby George on my own Grin

Love chubby babies! How about Charlie, Toby, Ben, Sam, William, Jack, Eddie.

George is such a fat name. It flubbers and blubbers like a pink jelly.

@Iggly yeah I know but I just can’t warm to a name if it doesn’t sound like it would suit a chubby baby 🤷🏼‍♀️ ha.

If he was going to be a chubby baby forever and he didn’t have to face the real world I would probably choose Jabba or similar 😂.

My DS1 was a big chunk and to paint the picture of the chub levels...the health visitor genuinely asked me when he was 7 months old what I had been feeding him as they thought I was blending up McDonald’s and takeaways for his dinners as they had other people that previously had 😒.

He is a healthy bean pole of a 7 year old now with no chub anywhere to be seen. But when I think of the new baby DS is my only reference so it’s all arm rolls and leg rolls 😍.

He just needs a chunky name and no McDonald’s purée.

My 10lb 1 Chunk who was all cheek is George. Our other choices were Freddie, Harry, Henry, Percy and James.

Babies generally are quite chunky.

The chubbiest baby I know is called Luke but it's not a very good chubby name.
