Help! I thought I decided on the name Wilbur for a boy, this gives lots of options so I love Wilby as a baby then he could be will, Wilbs, Wilby or Wilbur. Bit now I'm having second thoughts after telling a few people I find myself half waiting for there reaction. I also love the name Albie ( not short for anything ) but husband thinks when he's an adult it won't sound good. What do you guys think?

I don’t love either but at a push I’d say Wilbur. Albert would be better although I still don’t love Albie.

Great if you're naming piglets.

Wilbur sounds like a dogs name
My dog is called Wilbur. Great dogs name.

Neither of them. Wilbur sounds like an old man, Albie is surely from Albert.

They are both very "wet" names. Not keen on either tbh
