Albert, Sidney, Oscar, Stanley...we like but don't love

[Jizzyjeff]

Please make some suggestions to help us! Why can't we find a boys name we love? Help us find a boys name we love ❤

I heard Percy yesterday on a baby.

That has the same sort of vibe.

What about;

John
Paul
Stephen
Evan
Peter
Christopher
Nicholas

If you are going for the older style classics?

Leonard/ Lenny

Leonard/ Lenny - love it!

DH vetoed Leonard dammit

Aw that's a shame.
Can't think of anything else. I've given you my best!😂

3GreenPullups - thank you but not keen on any of those x

All the ones you suggested were fashionable 5-10 years ago, sort of old working class man names. If you like old fashioned and traditional I would go with something like Andrew, John, George, William, Matthew etc. They will never date!

I met a baby Patrick the other day! He was gorgeous and suited his name!

Michael
Nathan
David
Adam
Jonathan
Samuel
Lewis
Matthew
James
William
Charles
Thomas

But if you like the old fashioned old man names then maybe Wilfred? That is quite popular at the moment.

Nathaniel
Ernest

Francis (Frankie)
Edmund
Jasper
Miles
Wilbur

Frank
Joseph
Donald
Eric
Kenneth
Cosmo
Rollo

got to be honest - even the ones in my title we aren't that keen on.

none of the suggestions we like either. Wilbur I like at a push.

We have scoured these pages and the internet in general. We have taken long walks in the cemetery to look at gravestones and we try and pick names out from credits at the end of films etc

we just can't find a boys name we like, let alone love.

just suggested wilbur and got a guffaw from DH

Alfred
Ivan
Ned

Ray(mond)
Jarvis
Lawrence
Ralph
Douglas

Correct response from him!

I found boys names really hard too.
We got a list of 3 names we liked and waited until he was born and picked which one suited him!
I love his name now and no regrets!
It's sometimes easier to wait and see what they look like first!

Ira
Ezra
Saul
Seth
Lester

Alfred was mentioned...its okay, not mad about it

Edwin or Arthur.

Setanta
Oisin
Jacob

Dominic, Gregory, Isaac, Nathaniel, Victor

Henry, Peter, Barnaby, Ronald, Hector, Simon, Victor
