If you had a baby boy tomorrow and could name him your absolute dream name with no repercussions what would you choose?

Tadhg. (Pronounced like tiger but without the r). I love this name so much but can't use it because we're not Irish.

I’m pregnant right now and hoping for a boy!

My name of choice is Henry, also love Elijah, Jacob and Caleb.

My first choice for a boy was Alexander but my partner knows too many and didn't want to use it. So I'd go for that. Although we picked another A boy's name if our baby is a boy.

With no input from DH:
Either
Joshua Ethan
or
Samuel Aaron

Taking DH into consideration:
Ethan Joseph or Ethan Thomas

But equally I could be convinced by:
Nicholas, Jonathan, Dominic, Nathaniel, Jonah, Jacob (DH says no to these last few).

It's probably a good thing I'm not having a baby boy tomorrow! Grin
