Hey All

Expecting #2 next month and me and my DH are stumped when it comes to boy names

We have both written down lists of our favourite names and to our surprise two of the names were the same for girls names so at least we have narrowed that down to Chloe or Cara!

However for boys we just can't agree lol - our lists are soo different and we don't really like any of what each other has chosen 🙈

Some of His:
Rhys
Luke
Bruce

Some of Mine:
Taylor
Brodie
Gregor

We already have a son called James just wondering if you could help giving us some inspiration??x

James Taylor is a famous American singer / songwriter.

I'm not a fan of "matching sibsets" but I don't think any of the names you have go well with James.

A James needs another classic / timeless name. My personal favourite would be William but George or Henry would go nicely too.

I think something like Leo or Elliot could also work but James and Brodie or James and Rhys just doesn't flow as nicely for me.

I was going to say Elliot also.
Maybe Phillip?
Any biblical name would be good.

What about Ross? A single syllable name, which appears to be your DH's style, and it's Scottish like Gregor.

James David
and
Ross Benjamin
Or
Ross William
