To ask you to help me name our son?

[namethisbeaut]

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!

Out of your final 3 I would say Elliot.
Congratulations. He is absolutely gorgeous. (I would call him George)

How about Julian? Dominic? I've always loved those two names

Oh sorry missed the final 3. I would say Elliot has exploded in popularity.....so I'd go with Sebastian

He looks like a Ronald or Rowan to me. Good luck!

Sebastian Chipp

(My son is also called Sebastian)

Sebastian!

Sebastian 💙 I thought that before I even saw your short list. Congratulations

Sebastian I think

Definitely Sebastian!

Rafferty!

Rafferty Chipp is a great name (even though it didn't make your shortened shortlist). Swap Elliot on your short short list & put Rafferty there instead. Both Sebastian & Cameron are great names, but Rafferty has an edge...

Oh what a gorgeous boy! 😍 Without looking at other suggestions, I think he's a Sebastian, or maybe an Adrian, Lucian, Dominic or Joseph.

I'm sticking with my original suggestion.... this gorgeous little boy is definitely a Sebastian! (Although I do love Elliot/Elliott too).

Sebastian

Sebastian is good

Me again. 🤦‍♀️

After telling DP that I'm happy to settle on Sebastian, and him initially seeming delighted, he's just returned from the supermarket and said he's having a wobble. He's now thrown Sacha in to the mix, and I have to admit I really like it.
Does it work with Chipp? I'm not sure.

I love Elliott!
He's a gorgeous baby.
Not keen on Sacha tbh

I think Sacha's a great name, but it doesn't work with Chipp at all imo.
Sebastian Chipp is very distinguished.

Sebastian Chipp very nice.
Going back to earlier suggestions - though you probably/certainly won't want these - I really like Bertram 'Bertie' Chipp or Robert Chipp.

I'd choose a 2 syllable name that's unlikely to get shortened. Sebastian could end up as Seb and Seb Chipp doesn't sound that great imo.

I prefer Elliot of your shortlist, but also like the suggestions of Roman and Quentin.

Congratulations!

Sebastian is lovely but I don't think Sacha works with Chipp.

Oh gosh no to Sacha. Sa Cha Chipp? NO. Lovely name but no.

Tell your DH to stop overthinking!!

I'm not sure Seb Chipp is much
better than Sacha Chipp.

Btw Sacha is the French spelling. So you could also spell it Sasha.

To be honest it's quite hard getting a name which works well with Chipp which also has a good short form that works with Chipp! Nothing very short works with it at all really.

But Sacha really doesn't go at all.

Seb is a bit short and spiky with Chipp, yes, but then so is pretty much everything.

Gabriel chipp?

You need something to balance out the length but also the lack of vowels x

Elliot Chip!

Leonard Chipp (Lenny or Leo)
