Hi,

I'm due a baby boy next week and we still haven't picked a name. My husband has Scottish heritage and so a couple of the names are influenced by that. His middle name will be Wentworth as it is a family name and our surname begins with H.

Options so far are:

Vincent
Brandon
Conrad
Reuben
Kieran
Cameron
Fraser
Niall

We have scoured through a million lists and these are the best we can come up with, so please noone say they're all rubbish! Which one would you choose out of these?

Cameron is fab.

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 12/11/2021 16:14

Vincent ok
Brandon quite like
Conrad love
Reuben like
Kieran not keen
Cameron not keen
Fraser not keen
Niall like

From your list Conrad, Niall or Reuben

Congrats. I would wait until baby is here and see if he suits Fraser which is the nicest of your favourites.
Did you consider Stuart or Graham?

CloseYourMouthLynn · 12/11/2021 16:46

@Esspee, my husband is Graeme and my FIL Stuart!

Cameron .

I would also have to know the meaning of these names

SleafordSods · 12/11/2021 16:53

Cameron, Conrad or Fraser would be my first choices. Niall is good but I'm not keen on the others.

I have a Fraser, it’s a great name! People do tend to write it as Frazer though, which is annoying

ValentineC · 12/11/2021 17:49

I like Cameron best.
My cousin lives in Scotland and her boy is Logan Rory.
Good luck!

I love Cameron best from that list. All the Camerons I know are lovely.

Vincent - I quite like Vincent, it's definitely growing on me, Vince is ok but I hate Vinnie

Brandon - not a fan at all

Conrad - love it. I also really like Cormac which is similar

Reuben - love, it was on our list and I love NN Reu. It was just too popular for us (and we had girls)
Kieran - nice enough
Cameron - like it
Fraser - not a fan
Niall - not a fan

I think my top two would be Vincent (assuming I could avoid Vinnie at all costs) and Conrad
