What other names might I like?

Me and DP expecting a baby later this year, won't be finding out the gender. We've liked Rupert from the moment we knew we were expecting but I feel like we could use a couple of back ups in case it doesn't suit them, if indeed they are a boy!

We've got a few girls names on the pad, namely Cassidy, Sienna and Thea.

I also like Isaac but we are thinking Quinn for a middle name and I'm not sure I'm keen on the awkward c-into-q sound. I just can't get inspired by anything I see on baby name sites etc.

Thanks!

Thanks both!

I do like Theodore, nn. Theo or Ted but yet to convince my DP on that one 😂 Theo on its own is probably a good option!

Where I live Rupert is a slang term for someone super posh and out of touch... think Tim nice but dim type.

I love the name Theo. Great for a child and adult.

Yorkshireteabags · 27/06/2022 17:04

I would consider Quinn a girls name. Im really boring when it comes to names, I like traditional; Sydney, Henry, Albie

Sydney is not traditional and neither is Albie. Sidney and Albert are old man names and yes, traditional.

Arthur (which does means bear!)

I know a Rupert. His brothers are Felix and Hugo. I think they're all rather elegant names.

loves2plan · 27/06/2022 18:38

Thanks for your suggestions! There are a few in there which we already have in the family but some good ones too! I do like Theo, definitely grown on me

I am not a fan of Rupert, sorry. But I like Alexander, Tristan, Sebastian. Good luck OP, never easy choosing a name.
