Kitson, Baxter, Abel or Denny?

[TinaTraybake]

I love Abel and Denny, DH loves Kitson and Baxter. Kitson is growing on me. I also liked the name Henry but SIL just had a boy and named him Henry so now I'm stuck. What are your opinions on Kitson, Baxter, Abel or Denny?

Abel is not terrible.
I'm wondering what your other DC are called?
Aaron, Albert, Callum, Daniel, Dennis, Maxwell ?

I like Denny short for Dennis. Abel is ok too.

They all, with the exception of Abel, sound like brands or businesses. Abel is too like able for me.

What style are the rest of your children’s names as these are very different to Henry.

None of them, sorry

None of them.

I like Denny. Reminds me of musician Denny Lane. I think he was originally Dennis.

Abel is the nicest on the list. I quite like Denny as a nickname for Dennis, but not on its own. Really dislike your DH's choices, sorry!

'Baxter' is a surname and means 'female baker' so I'm bothered by it in the same way I am by girls being given names ending with -son.

Abel is nice.

Denny is a cute nickname for Dennis. Or in fact, Aiden. Sounds a lot like Abel and Denny works Great as a nickname.

I like Kitson best. Kit is very cool as a short form.

Kitson - ridiculous name
Baxter - canned soup
Abel - what if he's not able & has SEN?
Denny - it's a USA diner

Back to the name book please, OP.

Abel, at a pinch

The only Denny (pronounced more like Dinny) I know was Denis originally.

No to Kitson

If you like Abel you might like some other biblical name - Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Jeremiah, Jonas,

I normally don't comment in these threads - but just please don't. Even if you've already got six kids with several middle names there are better options out there for your human child than these.
Viz comic has a character called Baxter Basics.

Abel is the only one I’ve heard used as a first name

These aren’t my style, but you might like

I like Denny. Not so much the rest.

Denny was a character in Grey's Anatomy. He died.

Denny - it's a USA diner

Denny's. Iirc they used to do a lot of 'over 60s' specials, featuring mash and other food that didn't need chewing much. Considerate.

Denny/Dennis is ok. I’m not keen on Abel and I really dislike Kitson & Baxter. They sound like cat food brands to me or some kind of product rather than a person’s name. Maybe Hudson, Dexter or Maxwell would work? They all have a cool feeling but they’re more like names.

All of them awful.

Septemus if he's the 7th.

I prefer Denny and Kitson to Abel and Baxter. Have you considered Teddy?

Denny just sounds like you're saying Danny in an unusual accent. Also the name of a not very nice area in central Scotland if that bothers you.

You do know Denny is a small town outside of Falkirk?odd choice of name 🤣

@LadyIronDragon
Just saw your comment, I doubt anyone in Scotland will be using Denny 🤣🤣 what next? Carstairs? Wishaw?

All four of your suggested names grate on me OP.
