To ask you to help me name our son?

Help! We can't name our baby boy. We've been disagreeing about this for months now, and he's finally here and we're still no closer.
So can I turn it over to you, wise Mumsnetters? To offer up your best suggestions and help us stop referring to him as 'the baby'.
Ideally we don't want any royal names, surnames as names, or American popular names like Grayson.
Surname is Chipp.
Thank you!

I love Rafferty and Sebastian and Felix from your short list.
Raffy is a great nickname.
Congrats he's gorgeous.

Newuser82 · 31/12/2021 08:40

He is gorgeous. Congratulations. I think he looks like an Oliver, will or wilf.

My fave out of this is Cameron
SweetPotatoDumpling · 31/12/2021 09:48

Out of your list, the only one I dislike is Elliot (I just think of ET or the old doctor off Casualty 🤦‍♀️)

The rest are lovely 🥰

fineappleglasgow · 31/12/2021 09:52

I would go for Cameron, gorgeous name and goes well with your surname.

Imhereforthecake · 31/12/2021 10:18

Felix is lovely!

He's a Cameron. Congrats. He's gorgeous!

Pieceofpurplesky · 31/12/2021 12:58

Out of your list I don't think Cameron or Christian work. I don't like the name Elliot (I am a teacher and there are a lot of Elliots).

I like Rafferty and Felix best.
Still think Zachary is the best though
