Need a name for baby due in February. Oliver is my DSS and Daniel is DS. Partner and I only ever had Daniel on a boys list last time round. This time are really struggling. The requirements are as follows

No alternative spelling
No alternative pronunciation
Not too long but at least 2 syllables
Mustn't start with B
No S sounds

Surname is one syllable and starts with B

I know 3 brothers Oliver, Dan and Jacob. They go really nicely I think.

Thanks

Of those I like
Matthew
Henry
Robin

I also like
Samuel but partner won't allow it
Thomas but there is a close in age and location Thomas in the family already

I'm working on Peter as a middle name but my partner has a dubious uncle Pete so mY not be able to persuade him

Michael?

It's tough as ideally wanted something not already in either family. However between my partners parents they have 11 siblings and each of them had 2-4 children and those children have mostly had 2-4 children. On my side there are 11 aunts uncles and cousins aswell so it's proving VERY hard

I think Matthew goes perfectly with your other names.

I also like James, Richard, Thomas, Edward and William.

Toby, Jacob, Henry
All lovely names and go with your other sons names well.

emmathedilemma · 16/11/2020 13:36

Matthew or William (they work well together as first and middle names either way round too)

Thanks, there are some great suggestions on this thread. My baby book seems to be e full of American type names which really aren't our style.

William
Matthew
Patrick
Connor

Are all strong contenders.
