Baby Names (Boy)

We (mostly DH) have a list of "rules"....

  • No A's
  • NO D's
  • Doesn't end with N
  • Nothing "popular"
  • Nothing already in the family which (ignoring above rules) includes...
  • Dylan
  • Ethan
  • Lucas
  • Dan/iel
  • Ashley
  • Robert
  • Cameron
  • Riley
  • Cody
  • Kobe
  • Liam
  • Michael
  • Hayden And a few others that I can't even remember.🥴

Our first born is called Aidan. These "rules" will be mostly forgotten (except names listed) once baby arrives and DH realises he has to finally take it seriously like with our FB 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

So anyone have the patience to help? 🥺

I came on to say "James"

How coincidental you love it.

James. James. James.

Middle name Getstuffedhusband

James.
