Having another DS.

I love Walter, Stanley, Cillian, Oisin, Julius and Victor.

Quite the mix as you can tell Grin, any suggestions or rating them in order. I feel like I could cry as DS1 was picked out at 16 weeks!

Don’t panic! At least you have a shortlist, that’s a good start - maybe when you meet him you’ll know which suits him best...

Walter, Stanley, Julius, Cillian, Oisin, Victor

That's my in order starting with the preferred. I would say Oisin and
Victor a long way behind the others.

Love Julius!

You have a great shortlist and I think when you see him you will just know what suits. When my DS arrived I knew straightaway he didn't suit what had been top of my list.
Stanley would be my favourite from your choices.
Good luck.

Julius

orangejuicer · 24/09/2020 03:25

Loved Cillian myself but it didn't work with my surname.

We took a week after my c section to name DS so you've got time.

All the best for your section!

Enko · 24/09/2020 03:28

Walter is great

Torvean32 · 24/09/2020 03:33

Julius will get Julius Ceasar.
Walter Raleigh
Victor Hugho (author ) or even better
Victor and Hugo the cartoon.

I like , Oisin and Cillian.

Ojj37 · 24/09/2020 05:06

I originally thought those were your existing children!

I like Stanley and Walter best. I have no idea but I’m also thinking of Wesley (Wes)

I wouldn’t worry about the namesakes pp referred to.

Plesky · 24/09/2020 05:18

You’ve got loads of time. DS wasn’t finally named until we were on our way to the register office when he was nine weeks,

micc · 24/09/2020 05:54

Victor is one of my favourites too! Love it x

PlantPotting · 24/09/2020 08:10

I like Stanley and Walter
How about Sidney ?

Garcellesaidwhaaat · 24/09/2020 08:26

Julian?

Of your list I like Julius most.

Walter - Breaking Bad.

Garcellesaidwhaaat · 24/09/2020 08:27

For me Stanley is another one of those Reggie, Arthur names.

Little2late · 24/09/2020 09:14

@Ojj37 I do like Wesley but think its one of those names are touch and go. I love Leslie for a boy also but not brave enough!

What does everyone think of Adrian?

There are so many names I love Sad

Oh I like Julius. You don’t hear that very often.

I also Marius and Magnus - and ds’s middle name is Antonius so I guess I like names that end in ‘us’!

Mish85 · 24/09/2020 13:14

Walter, Stanley and Cillian my favs. Good luck welcoming bub into the world 🙂

user1493494961 · 24/09/2020 15:52

Julius is different and not in a bad way, I prefer it to the others.

Not keen on your others.
