Stuck on boys names

21 replies

I'm 4 months pregnant with dc2, already have dd (Charlotte Grace).

We have 2 girls names DH and I both equally like so are happy on that front, but I've now decided I'm not sure I like any boys names that we've had on the list!

DH likes traditional, unfussy names. I like (in general) a mix of unusual and traditional names and we'd like it not to sound too out there compared to DD's name.

The only boys name I don't mind seems to be Jack - but the more I think about it, the more I think I'll go off it! 🙄

Any suggestions?

I really like your lost @SummaLuvin Smile

Lots of lovely names here, thank you for all the suggestions. Unfortunately, there's lots of boys in our families with some of the suggested names and we don't want to have duplicate names.
I'll have a look through with DH tonight

Henry or Harry would be lovely with Charlotte

Thank you for all the suggestions.
It's a pain because there are so many names being suggested that are names of Family members & Friends children (which we'd like to avoid) as well as the royal connection names (I loved Louis and William!)

I know I'm probably being super picky, I've just found girls names so much easier (for DD and this baby) which is probably why I'm now convinced this baby will be a boy! 😁
