Baby boy arrived today - no name, help!

DS 2 arrived this afternoon by EMCS at 34 weeks. He's doing really well but we have no name for him and I'd really like him to have one ASAP - it just feels a bit disjointed that he doesn't.

I've included a photo for you - any suggestion welcome! Siblings are Poppy and Reuben. Surname is 2 syllables, beginning with a B Smile

Oh he's gorgeous! Congratulations ❤. The name that immediately came to mind was Noah but I also think Felix, Dara, Toby or Henry go beautifully with your other 2 children's names.

BoreOfWhabylon · 08/12/2021 00:27

Congratulations! He's beautiful!

My suggestion is Asa.
Or Gabriel.

Noah, or Toby!

I came on to say you have to call this baby Reuben.. only to read the sibling names 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

sarah13xx · 08/12/2021 00:33

Congratulations also! Hope everything’s okay 😊 Reuben was on my list. So was Jenson (although it gets a bad rep on here and I think I’ve maybe gone off it since), Freddie, Finn, Ari (favourite name of all time)

Kit but it also seems to be a love/hate relationship on MN

I immediately thought of Milo.
Congratulations Flowers

Lockdownbear · 08/12/2021 00:52

I never thought I'd say this but Barry. It was the first name I thought when read the other two names.

Congratulations hope your doing well, take your time naming him.

Well, he was blown in early by Storm Barra Xmas Grin
