Brother for Stanley?

Our little boy is Stanley Elliot. We are expecting another little boy in February and want to get cracking on names. We both like George a lot, but aren’t sure if it’s ‘the one’. We also like William. Any ideas?

I love Sidney, but I think Stanley and Sidney might be too matchy. I like Edmund too and Jack.

Wdyt of Harry?

I like Wilfred, Percy and Milo.

Arthur and George are probably the top runners. Not bothered about popularity

I love the name PaulBlush but don’t think we’re quite ready for it

Paul is a great name - classic, strong and easy to say and spell! And he won't need to add his initial to his name.

MissHenty · 08/09/2019 08:34

@StanAndMe Arthur and George are gorgeous names! Love them so much.

MissHenty · 08/09/2019 08:35

@StanAndMe not quite so sure of Paul but it’s not bad at all

MissHenty · 08/09/2019 08:36

@StanAndMe what about Peter if you like Paul
