The names Hector and Maximilian, what other names should I consider? DH not massively keen on either but obviously has no ideas of his own Grin

I would say go with one of those unless DH gets his arse in gear and comes up with his own shortlist.

Some gorgeous suggestions, thank you! I already have one of the above and some of my favourites from these lists have already been used by friends and family. Finding choosing for DC2 much more difficult than the first time round. I do genuinely love Hector, I really need to work on DH Grin

Hector is great! What about Magnus as another idea?

DramaAlpaca · 06/06/2021 23:57

Great minds @crabette, I was just coming on to say Magnus.

Sorry OP but I’ve never met a Hector who wasn’t a pompous arse.

Hector and Maximilian are popular names in my family and are common in my friend group as I am Hispanic.

Other names along the same Spanish vein are:

Ramon (Rah-moan not Raymon)
Raul
Raphael
Sergio (Sehr-hee-oh)
Luciano (Loo-see-ah-no)
Luis
Javier (Ha-vee-air)
Eduardo
Marco
Antonio

My DD has a Hector in her class at school. He’s a lovely boy with 2 brothers; Hugo & Jasper

Cissyandflora · 07/06/2021 00:18

Hector is a fantastic name

Violetlavenders · 07/06/2021 06:50

Shame about the meaning 'to hector'

How about
