Hi everyone!
We’re having our second little boy and i am completely stuck for names. Our first little one is called Arlo and I picked it with love and easily! This time I can’t find any boys names I like, I’d love something with class, slightly different but not so much it’s eyebrow raising!

Can you help choose from this list or suggest others?! :-) thank you so much

  • Monty
  • Otis
  • Joey
  • Ludo

Otis! Perfect

helpmum2003 · 27/01/2021 10:33

I agree Otis goes perfectly. Ludo is a very close second just because it sounds a bit samey.

Monty and Joey are cute but maybe not so good on an adult.

Otis

Can I suggest Baden, Barnaby as names you might also like

Melongrowing · 27/01/2021 10:55

I do like Barnaby too! Good choice. I just can’t pick :-)

Thank you everyone for your choices - it does help

Barnaby also lovely

MercyBodle · 27/01/2021 11:52

Monty is my favourite.
Otis is okay. I like Ludo but I don't like Arlo and Ludo together - too matchy.

VenusClapTrap · 27/01/2021 15:12

Love Ludo.

LemonBreeland · 27/01/2021 15:15

Monty or Otis

Peeteea · 27/01/2021 15:15

Otis for me. Gotta admit though, Ludo is growing on me!

bourbonne · 27/01/2021 17:11

Otis. Lovely. Monty a bit puppy-like, Joey not a proper name in its own right (but Joseph very nice with Joey as nickname), Ludo I would imagine to be the child of insufferable parents, sorry.

Angel2702 · 27/01/2021 17:12

Otis

honkytonkheroe · 27/01/2021 17:37

I really like Monty! I'm passed the age of having any more children but I said the other day that I'd like twin grandchildren called Monty and Millie.Grin

BrightonR · 27/01/2021 17:47

I love Otis.
Similar names you might like Otto, Jude, Jago, Linus and Hugo.

Firebird83 · 27/01/2021 17:58

Otis goes well

How about Jago?

hggg · 27/01/2021 17:59

Otis is lovely

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 27/01/2021 18:21

Otis is a bit too trendy for me, Joey is too nickname or baby Kangaroo, and Ludo is too samey with Arlo imo.

Monty is the best of your choices for me (although I think of it more of a nn for Montague or Montgomery) and I quite like Barnaby (although I worry he'd get Barney, which sounds a bit cringey to me).

What about Rufus, Ezra, Felix, Evan or Maxim?

Curlymam88 · 27/01/2021 18:41

Maybe not Ludo. I think Ludo is a board game?

Melongrowing · 28/01/2021 07:31

Thank you everyone!

Yes Ezra and Felix were in my top 10!

I think with all your help from everyone in now down to two which is great I’m now thinking Otis or Monty! That’s exciting to be closer
