...and both have jobs where we deal with a lot of people and children. Some negative associations with names. Our friends have all had children recently so the following names are ruled out: Finley, Gabriel, Thomas, Sebastian, Theodore, Oscar, Henry, Harry, Otis, Dylan, Felix, Jesse. We have already ruled out George, Noah, Arthur, Alfie, Freddie, Archie and Teddy. Not keen on anything to twee sounding.

The only names on my mind at the moment are Robin and Louis. I did like Max but concerned about popularity.

Could you lend a hand with some suggestions please? Nothing too off the wall but I just need some new ideas that aren't either already used, negatively associated with or too popular. Yep sounds easy doesn't it 🤣🤣

Thanks in advance.

Edward is great. There's one in dd2's class but it's not overly popular imo. Also James, Ivan, Rex, Alexander and Ben

If you don't want anything too popular then I'd avoid every name in the top 100

How about:

Tristan

Laurence

Spencer

Seth

Caleb (think this is top 100 but about to fall out to won't be in there by 2020 stats)

Casper

Sidney

Peter

I think Edward is a great name. I have young children and it’s not wildly popular but a good classic with nn potential if wanted.

TheNanny23 · 26/11/2020 21:56

Edward is number 24 with 2125 boys named it in 2019

YerAWizardHarry · 26/11/2020 22:01

I don't agree that top 100 names need to be avoided. I've got an Oliver at a 500 pupil school and there is only two of them

Sonny. I love that name and would have had it myself but went with Henry
