Boys Names Shortlist: Help make it shorter!

Hi all

We are completely stuck on boys names! I'm going to be induced next week with our second DS and we have a short list but don't really have any that we think is 'the one'

We already have one DS who is 2 and has an 'ie' name (think Charlie).

What do people think of the below list? Any favourites or additions along these lines? We want something that is not particularly common (but we both do like Jack!) but not too unusual!

Thanks!

Jack
Mack
Percy
Miles
Morgan
Avery
Hudson
Huxley
Cooper
Ashton
Otis

Miles, Cooper and Ashton

Nice choices. I would add Mason to the list.

I think Miles is my favourite of your 3

OP which name did you end up choosing?

Jack all the way!

I like Jack, Mack and Cooper best from the list. Miles is lovely too actually.
My least faves are Percy, Morgan and Huxley. I'm with you on Percy op, it sounds like a sad and deflated name, I don't know why I think that thoigh, I don't know wany Percys!

Oop , ignore the typos!

Thank you all so much for your thoughts and suggestions

Baby Miles made an appearance on Tuesday and absolutely suits his chosen name.

He is home and settled and receiving lots of cuddles from his big brother

If you like 'ack' sounds, what about Zack? I dated two in my teens, both very handsome and fun so that's what I associate the name with now!
