Help me decide a boys name :-)

[Rubyrebel]

Even got mil involved now !
We have a short list of Jack, George, Charles/nn Charlie, Ethan, Myles

Do you like any of these ? Thanks for your help x

Thanks for all your help! I think miles had the most votes with the rest basically tied. The only issue is - is miles a posh name lol ??

Not in my experience of 2 !

Haha, I don’t know why I think it is , guess it sounds a bit like Giles.

Now, Giles is a posh name ime!

George is actually higher on the list of 'popular' names than Jack. I believe Oliver is number 1, followed by George then Jack is number 4 or 5.

We love Jack for our boy but combined with our surname it turns it into an American swear word so are going for Miles!

My husband chose Niles and I loved it because I know there won't be a few of them in the classroom etc.

No I don’t but that’s neither here nor there.
If you like them all equally why not pick out out of a hat.

I like them all but it seems you want a very common name so there is lots more to consider. Myles is the only one that is less common. hat sounds good with your family name?

Miles is lovely and not posh

Jack and Myles are my favourite and were also on my baby name lists 😍

I love George the best!

Thanks for all your suggestions! Would any of you ask family / friends or avoid 😂??

I wouldnt ask them at all. No way!

Only ask family or friends if you trust them not to have a strop if you don't use their choice.

If it is a sibling or friend, they may have decided that a name is 'theirs' and be annoyed if you use it. They may also not suggest a name for that reason.

Parents might be quite keen for you to use an honour name and be upset that you don't want to have a baby Cecil or Gladys.

**Apologies to anyone who loves the names Cecil and Gladys.

Haha avoid then, good points thanks
