Baby Boy - Lloyd, Lewis or Charlie

[Mercedes1988]

We are expecting our first child and cannot decide on a boys name. We both really like Lloyd as this name has previously been used in both of our families, but Im worried that Lloyd will sound to grown-up ?

My partner is british and im german, which limits our name choices dramatically as we want the name to sound good in both languages!

so far we have;

Lloyd Alexander E.
Lewis Alexander E.
Charlie Alexander E.
Flynn Alexander E.

However, Im VERY open to suggestions!! Thanks :)

Not Charlie, it’s so overused and a bit too cuddly and try hard cheeky chappy because it’s a nickname.

Lewis or Lloyd.

Thank you! My husband likes Charlie but I think its too common!

Lewis or Lloyd is lovely- pick one of them!

How about Clyde if you like Lloyd ?

Other suggestions

Eli
Ellis
Otis
Rudy/Rudi
Barnaby
Otto
Rex

Flynn is really nice

I have a Lewis so would that gets my vote he's Lewis James

Aw thank you all for your replies! We also really like Ellis but one of my best friends little boy is already called Ellis which rules this name out for us.

I do like Lloyd a lot , just unsure if it's a bit too unusual ?!

Clyde is nice too! thanks for that!!

I know a few Lloyds of different ages and think it is nice.
Another name you could consider is Vaughan,
I also know a Clyde.

I'd choose Lloyd!

Charlie is overused/common and Lewis doesn't sound great in German.

Other names that work in German and English
Dominic
Quentin
Marcus

Lewis or Lloyd.

I like Lloyd best. Charlie is sweet but very popular. I do like Flynn too actually. Personally I don't like Lewis.

Oh I love Vaughn.

Lewis Alexander is a great name. Very dignified. Flynn would be my second choice.

Lewis, definitely.
