Baby no name

[sunflowerroad]

Hello!

We are expecting our second child next week but really struggling with a name.
It will be a boy. Our first sons name is Jacob. Surname is Bell
We have close family/friends with the names Toby, Joshua. Freddie, Frankie Arthur, Benjamin, George, Charlie, Lucas so can't really choose any of those.
We cant seem
To agree on a name. I offer suggestions the DH rejects them but doesn't offer any alternatives. (Typical!)
Names I like (that DH doesnt)
Sebastian, Jonah, Wilbur, Teddy (although probably too popular at the moment)

Would love some more name suggestions, in hope that theres one we both like!

Thankyou

If your DH refuses to help and expects you to do the work of coming up with names for him to consider, then that means you get sole rights to name your DC. It's the law.

I like Noah, but its always been a 'baby name' for my friend who is going through fertility treatment, so couldnt do that to her

Jacob is lovely

How about:
Daniel
Elijah
Isaac
Ivo
Max
Reuben
Simon

I also like James but I wouldn't choose another name beginning with J (and Jonah is definitely too similar to Jacob).

Put all your options on pieces of paper and let Jacob choose. Or wait till he is born see what he looks like.

Why don't you just wait until you've met them? It might also focus your husband's mind.

I can sympathise with his apathy. Names just weren't a thing for me until all my DC were born (and I'm the mum).

William or John ( who could be Johnny ) ?

All best to you whatever you choose
