Obvious Name Change for this as not sure their are many siblings who share those names as my two boys.

Anyway, to our delight we found out last night we are having a 3rd son!

But we havent a bloomin clue for a name.

Please can we take suggestions?

I love the name Amos but DH isn't sold on it, he likes the name Glenn but I am not sure about that one.

Well I love Amos but it's very different from your other names. Glenn is not something I'd pick, it just doesn't really sound like a name to me. Congratulations by the way.

How about Stephen, David, Leon, Harry? I'm not very inspired today!

Amos is fabulous
Don’t like Glenn at all sorry DH

Someone suggested Asher on another thread, I'd never heard of it till then but it's lovely.

Thomas mean the Lord has added to the family which is a lovely meaning.

Roy in particular has a vintage feel to it I think so I’m going to suggest Lyle or Laurence (nick name Larry).

Also maybe a bit out there but Eugene (nick name Gene)

Love the names Vincent and Roy. It seems like you like fairly unusual names so I’ve tried to avoid the top 100

I like Glenn more than Amos.

Frederick is nice too, although more popular than your other two DC's names, if that sort of thing bothers you at all.

BoomBoomBoomLetMeHearYouSay · 21/11/2019 10:57

Kit is lovely. Freddie quite cute but more popular.

Asher I really don’t think goes with Vincent and Roy.

Butterfly005 · 21/11/2019 11:00

Love Frederick/Freddie

LarkDescending · 21/11/2019 11:06

I love Frederick.

With Vincent and Roy I also thought of Graham and Colin.

Doggyfeet · 21/11/2019 11:11

I also thought Colin. Martin, Greg, Stephen, Peter, Kevin have the same sort of vibe as your other names to me.

Leopardprintboots · 21/11/2019 11:32

Love Frederick @VinnieRoy

VinnieRoy · 21/11/2019 12:52

Oh i do like Eric actually!

We love Thomas but that is Roy's middle name.

What about Edmund with an Eddie?

Disfordarkchocolate · 21/11/2019 12:56

Edmund is lovely too, great taste @VinnieRoy.

How about Arthur -Art

LarkDescending · 21/11/2019 12:59

Edmund would be a lovely choice.

TerribleCustomerCervix · 21/11/2019 13:01

Glenn is terrible, sorry DH!

Frederick is lovely, as is another pp’s suggestion of David.

Patrick is a classic which is chronically underused and loads of nickname potential.

Grufallosfriends · 21/11/2019 14:03

I like the suggestions of Amos and Edmund. Or how about

I really like Amos, Abel is quite similar or Hamish?

I also like Glenn. Maybe Glyn for a slightly more modern feel?
