I love it so much!

It's a nice simple name that'll work through his life. It would work for a baby AND your brain surgeon! :)

I like the nickname Hal for it as well, which is a very old-English nickname.

Thanks for all your thoughts.....been very helpful. Henry looks to be moving to the top of our list :)

What do people think of Thomas as a middle name to go with Henry?

Henry is just Henry 8th to me.

I really like it. There are 3 in my daughter's class if that sort of thing bothers you. Great name though

Henry is a beautiful name; not popular with the younger generation where I am live. My son’s middle name is Henry - also love Harry as a nickname.

Henry Thomas is a lovely combination, go for it!!

I love it, sadly DH didn't. He's Irish and Henry is 'too English', apparently Confused

Henry Thomas is great, good choice.

SengaStrawberry · 12/07/2020 02:24

Like it

Heh1991 · 13/07/2020 00:59

Love it!

@dramaalpaca look up Henry Joy McCracken!

My Henry is a little get. The name doesn't sound so good when you're screaming at him to stop him falling to his death for the millionth time.

I wouldn't change it though :D I luffs my Henry.
