Help me name a 4th boy!

I’m really struggling with names as I have three boys already so with their first names and middle names I’ve pretty much used up all the names I really like!

I like Oscar and Arthur but those have both been vetoed. I also like Atticus and Otto, but not sure if Atticus is a big pretentious and Otto is an odd choice since we have no German links. If I went for either of those I’d want to give the baby an uncontroversial middle name in case he hated his first name.

Please help me with suggestions for other names I might like or opinions on Atticus and Otto!

What are your other boys called? Might help work out what will go.

I like Atticus. Not too keen on Otto but don't think it matters about having German links.

When I think of Oscar and Arthur I also think of Theo, Felix and maybe Jasper.

Theo is also a contender, Jasper has been vetoed, along with Casper!

My other kids are William, Sebastian and George.

I think Theo goes very well!

I was actually going to suggest Casper, funnily enough.

Jonathan for me too - it goes so well with the names of your other three boys. How about Jonathan with Otto for his middle name.

Coldwinterahead1 · 05/12/2020 20:11

James goes with the others

Thanks for all your suggestions which are really helpful, most of you have been too polite to express an opinion on Atticus and Otto but if you have an opinion I would be interested (good or bad!)

Otto and atticus are very different to your existing boys names. Too odd.

Porridgeoat · 05/12/2020 20:24

Oscar and Otto are great names

Otto is fab! Atticus is not!
