Boys names ! OLD ENGLISH

[RLou3]

Hi all,

Wondered if anyone could please help. Struggling so much with picking a boys name! I like really unusual but DH does not! So compromising on a name that is heard of but not common! Any ideas... please post xxxx

Ethelred

Athelstan

Arthur

Alfred, Harold, Wilfred

Egbert

Cyril

I really liked Edric, Ed or Rick for short but didn’t have a boy

Another vote for Arthur, it's a lovely name.

Bede

Wulfric

Arthur, Albert, Cedric, Cecil, Walter, Norman.

Gerald. Ged / Gerry for short

Harold

Some old Irish and Northumbria saints had good names

I have a cool 20 year old Aidan, who loves the roots of his name and insisted on going to Iona and Lindisfarne, which he still calls "my islands".
