Very excited to have chosen a name as it's been so tough with many disagreements! However, I'm now second guessing it. What do you think of the name?

It's a great name! I'm Scottish though so probably a bit biased 🙈

Lovely name!

I love Fraser and we would have used it hadn't it been for the fact it was DHs ex's Dad's name....and he didn't like him very much so vetoed. Shame as it lovely. Are you having a middle?

If you are quite cool, artsy and edgy, live in a city (or are Scottish), love it.

We live in the Cotswolds in a very eco, hippie vibe area! Very artsy and musical but not edgy! We are using our grandfather's names as middle names. So a very mixed bag of scottish, english and welsh (Fraser Laurie Idris!)

Brilliant OP, also love Laurie :)

Excellent name.

Unusual, but not weird and wacky. Suits a toddler and a grown man. My first born was a March baby and it's a great time of year to have a baby - all summer to enjoy them being little and you can actually get out and go places.

I love it!! 💕

Pineapple Danish, thank you! Yes, so excited to have a summer here with a little one! Picnics on the Commons etc! Will be lovely! Thank you everyone! Such positive responses! So surprised as previous posts on here have been pretty 50 50 with a few 'awful nsme' comments! Thanks!

Not heard of a Fraser in years. Congratulations.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 06/02/2020 07:39

Do you know you're having a boy.

Thank you!!! Really happy with the response here! Yes, definitely a boy!

If we have a boy, he’ll be a Fraser... so I like it Grin

Omashu · 06/02/2020 09:42

It’s fine. I don’t love it but that’s just because it’s not my taste! Don’t hate it either.

MrsC105 · 06/02/2020 11:55

If we have a boy he will be called Frazer. I love it and it's DH's middle name :)

ColumbaPalumbus · 06/02/2020 12:02

I think it's great! But where is this hippie bit of the Cotswolds? So far we've found it very conservative and stuffy.
