Or how about
Albert
Quentin
Dominic

His name doesn't gave to fit with her name. They aren't a matching pair but two individuals. I personally don't like Felix but your other name ideas are all good

joystir59 · 14/10/2019 08:25

The suggestions other posters have made so far are horrible.

Bobthefishermanswife · 14/10/2019 08:28

Felix or Dylan from your list.

I also think Thomas or Elliott would be nice names for a brother for Evelyn.

You’ve got a really lovely shortlist there @MollyFaith00 !! I’d def go with one of them. I love Felix and Arthur and Dylan and Edward

Gorgeous names. Have you managed to shorten the list @

MollyFaith00 · 14/10/2019 10:09

Ahhh thank you for all the replies and suggestions!! Nice to hear that in general people like them and think they fit!! 😊

At the moment from my original list I'm leaning towards Arthur! But I'm hoping when the baby is born I'm we'll be like 'oh, he really looks like a Dylan/Arthur/Felix' and it will all be clear!!

Love the name Jude, and also like Wilfred. Thanks for all the suggestions 💗.

It's such a hard decision - I find girls names SO easy in comparison!

I like all your names OP, quite similar to my boys list! 41 weeks today and like you hoping "the" name makes itself clear when we finally meet bubba! I found girls names soooooo much easier. Good luck, will you let us know what you name DC?

youllhavehadyourtea · 14/10/2019 19:30

I immediately thought Henry , but from your list Arthur.
