Hiya everyone,

We have narrowed it down to 3 boy names we love but really can't pick! Wish i could see his wee face might make it easier lol! Middle name is a family tradition so having to go with that one, i know it's a bit odd but it won't be used often 😂

Which is your fave and flows the best please?

Orson Baird McCuggan
Lachlan Baird McCuggan
Harrison Baird McCuggan

Lachlan! Very handsome.

I like Lachlan but I think it makes a name which has a lot of the same noise in it.

Therefore I think I prefer Orson.

I really like Orson, but there was a rubbish band in the noughties with that name that tarnished it a bit of me!

Lachlan nn Lachie gets my vote. I would probably assume he was Scottish (not that it matters if he isn’t!)

Lachlan, really dislike Harrison.

123Dancewithme · 15/04/2020 21:12

Lachlan

Not Harrison - it's really popular (maybe a bit chavvy?) and although you are clearly choosing it with Scottish heritage, most people haven't and it's lost its charm.

Lachlan is nice but will be constantly mispronounced and misspelt.

Orson I really like. Simple but unusual, classy.

Lachlan

Love Lachlan

Albern · 15/04/2020 23:35

I like them all but my favourite is Lachlan .

Cotswoldmama · 15/04/2020 23:36

Lachlan

ShleeAnKree · 15/04/2020 23:37

I like Orson (but where I am, we pronounce our Rs so that wouldn't sound like awesome. It awson wouldn't sound as good. And Lachlan, like that too. I'd prefer just Harry to Harrison.

Tardigrade001 · 15/04/2020 23:41

Orson

  1. Lachlan
  2. Harrison
DerekMorganswife · 16/04/2020 00:01

Probably showing my age but Orson reminds me of Mork and Mindy (nanu nanu). Harrison is OK but there were loads of Harrisons in school about 10 years ago.
I love Lachlan though.

AlliKaneSon · 16/04/2020 01:39

Harrison!

chocolicious · 16/04/2020 01:52

Lachlan

Emthebaker · 16/04/2020 07:32

I love the name Orson, It’s unusual, but not strange sounding, easy to spell and classy. Lachlan is lovely, too. I’m not a huge fan of Harrison, personally, but to reach their own! You might just know when you see him. Good luck, OP Flowers

Alwaysundecided · 16/04/2020 08:59

Lachlan because I love Lachy

DoctorBambino · 16/04/2020 10:40
