We're having a baby boy in a few weeks time - our first baby 🥰.

Naming him is proving a challenge and he's just known as Kevin for now. I feel it would be kind to not stick with Kevin, so please give me your thoughts on our potential names.

Freddie (short for Alfred)
Percy (family name, I love it and think it's due a come back!)
Beau
Rowan
Jesse

A mixed bunch - we have very different tastes so getting just a few has been a struggle!

Thanks

If you like names with a red meaning you might also like:

Radley, Jasper, Russel, Rudyard (Nn Rudy)

@roarfeckingroarr
That said I appreciate meaning isn't really that important. I don't even know the meaning behind my own name, let alone any of my friends names to be honest. Did look up meanings for my kids names though but doubt they'll care.

💐Come and update us when baby is here! I think all your names are good; Jesse, Beau, Kevin and Percy are my top pics. Rowan my least favourite due nn Row and similarity with Roman. Would love to hear it's Kevin!!.

If you like red meaning names I suggest Flynn 'son of red one' my LO is called Flynn so I am not biased at all lol x

Really love Jesse, there’s one in my sons friendship group and I love it (they’re 15). Love Jesse James too.

My Grandad was called Percy and I like it, not sure I’d use it though..
