Boy name to go with Henry & Arthur

We just found out we are having a THIRD boy!! It took us almost 4 weeks to name our second. Our eldest is Henry Thomas and our Second is Arthur Kenneth (nn Archie).

Seeing as it took so long to pick a boy name last time, I thought I'd get a head start on this one 😂 Hopefully 4 months is enough!!

I'd love to hear your traditional name suggestions. Our surname is Brown so we defo can't do James and I can't bring myself to do Charlie Brown (even though hubby says it's fine)! What do you think?

Henry and Arthur somehow give me a New York of the 50s vibe.

I would suggest:
Leonard
Robert
George
Joseph
Theodore
Alan
Jerome
Jonas
Jude

Surely it has to be Edward, you already have a Tudor king and a Tudor prince of wales.

@sashh I know! So happy that I was able to sneak that in without hubby realizing. I'm American and he's English. Glad I was able to get this far with it! Lol

And if we were having a girl she would have been Margaret/Margot haha

@Lockdownbear My grandma is currently in the hospital and has been telling her nurses that I'm having a little boy named Robert! (Was her dad's name) I love Robert, but just get concerned he'll end up being Bob/Bobby Brown! (Brown being our surname lol)

So cute though!! Might use it as a middle name!

The Roberts I know are largely called Rob these days. My nephew was Bertie as a baby, he’s 29 now and has never been Bob.

I have to say, I think Edward is perfect!
