Desperately seeking traditional boy name

[lewal13]

Hi all,
Due date is today and we still have no idea what to name our baby boy. I love Frederick (with the nickname Fred) and my husband likes Arthur. We are after a traditional name that has a cute nickname and goes with our daughters name which is Lilly. Any suggestions would be gratefully received!

Frederick Arthur is a perfectly good name. As is Arthur Frederick.

I like Freddie and I think it goes well with Lily.

Gideon
Tobias
Wilfred
Benjamin
Jack
Luke

We are awash with 7 and 8 year old Freddies, Arthurs, Wilfs and Stanleys in this neck of the woods. I think Peter is due a come back, and also the currently little used names David (nn Davy?), Robert (Robbie/ Bobby/ Rob), Andrew, Michael, Stephen. But what would I know - I chose a name based on grandparents’ names!

Frederick and Archie are both great names.

Other suggestions-

Rupert- nn Rue
Albert- nn Bertie or Albie
Louis- nn Lu
George

Douglas (Dougie)
James (Jim)
Edward (Ned/Ted)

William/Bill

Edwin or Edmund

Rueben.

James (unless your surname is Potter as people will assume you are super fans with a Lilly as well )

Benjamin
Thomas
Edward
Henry
Alexander
Mathew
Oliver

My favourites are Alexander (many nicknames!) and Alasdair (Ally).

Christopher/Kit

Patrick (Paddy)
Works well with Lily, I think.
