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

I have literally no idea what you mean by a name that suits a chubby baby. All names suit chubby babies and skinny babies alike. HTH.

To me I imagine cuddly Sam, Benji, Oscar, Wilf, Theodore, Teddy, Dale and Ralph

Benji

Peter definitely isn't.

The chubbiest baby I know is called Luke but it's not a very good chubby name.
Oh I think it is! In fact I came on here to say Luke. I see a Luke as a baby with a really, really round face with cute, chubby cheeks. But mainly the round face.

You’re right, Op, Gus is a chubby baby.

I don't know why but it seems to be majority 'ie' names such as:
Archie
Frankie
Charlie
Louis
Oscar
Wilf (Wilfred)
Milo
Hughie (Hugo)

Oliver (or Ollie) is the chubbiest name ever. It practically wobbles.

Barry (unlikely anyone would go for that name in 2019!)
Louis
Harry

Biscuitsneeded · 18/07/2019 09:19

Has to be Billy

Bruce, as that’s the name of the boy from Matilda who had to eat the chocolate cake. I used to look after a boy called Aaron who looked just like the actor that played Bruce so I associate Aaron with a chubby cheeked child too Grin in the most affectionate way though!

Roland, nickname Roly. Surely it's the ultimate?!!
