Names for boys (aristocratic/posh/fancy)

[RellyRoad9]

Hi All!
Looking for a fancy sounding middle name for our son.
We're from a family who're used to really quite fancy names - but we chose to go for something pretty middle of the road by their standards for our boy. Because of this, it'd be great to find a sophisticated middle name for him instead.
And before you start with comments about 'posh' and upper class and 'why would you want your son to have a posh name' and all the class warrior stuff, there's no need. Preferences are preferences and we don't need to get into a debate on the ridiculous class system in this country, we get it.
Names we considered Hugo, Montgomery, Rafferty, etc. Nothing too extreme like Ptolemy or anything - they're not THAT posh!
DS name begins with L.
Thanks for your help :-)

Digby

I wanted digby so bAfy for my DS but it was well and truly vetoed by everyone I spoke to about it. Next dog I get will be a digby though!

Diggory, Diggory has to be posh, surely. And Dickon...

The otter was Tarka, not Tarquin.

Surprised no-one has mentioned Rafe!

@weedsnseeds1
Hold on! isn't Tarka an Indian dish made with dhal rather than otters?

Tarquin

Strictly speaking tarka is the technique of frying spices etc. in oil, then adding to the dish as a sort of garnish, so you can have tarka dhal, but equally could tarka otter Twoleftsockswithholes

@bitliketonyhares

Tarquin 💯 Is the poshest name of all time.

I’m not sure. Cosmo beats it I think.

@Lifeinaonesie I have a Digby, couldn't believe when I suggested it to DH and he agreed he liked it! Few raised eyebrows from the grandparents but it really suits him

I LOVE the name Benedict for a boy.

The poshest men I know are Charlie, Guy, Paul, Barnaby and Roland.

Tarquin is pretentious not truly posh.

I think posh names tend to be quite straightforward. Many of these names are 'pseudo posh' - there's a massive difference!

Alastair
Henry
Giles
Andrew
Are posh men I have known.

I know a Benedict from a council house.

St. John (sin Jin)

I know a very posh Marmaduke, Spencer and Thaddeus. Also Eugene and Martinus (just went by Martin). The most posh was probably Jean-Baptiste.

If I lived in Notting Hill and worked in fashion and could be absolutely sure of sending my fantasy son to Wetherby and Eton, he would definitely be called Orlando.

Havelock is lovely too
