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

If i ever have a boy he will be Sebastian Nicholas, but i absolutely love the name Lucifer! Would never be brave enough to use it.

Fox. Alas, I couldn't do that to a child. My boy due in Feb will be Miles instead.

@roarfeckingroarr

When I was pregnant with DS (2 months old) I had my heart set on Lysander and Ptolemy. DH vetoed (probably for the best) and he's Arthur.
Just asked DH and given the choice for a second son he wants Thierry Berfkamp Txxxx (surname - like Taylor).

I've told DH if we have a third boy he will be Bertie (Albert). I love it.

There’s a chap on The Repair Shop called that and I think it’s a lovely name.
