Please help! I'm giving birth soon and we still can't agree/ decide on a name for DC3. I have a DS and DD, and DS has the only boy name DH and I both liked.

If I was having another girl, we have loads of options. But we're not!

I'd like to avoid anything beginning with A, J, P or R. Bonus points if it's an S name as my DS has decided that's a good initial for his baby brother for some reason.

I like unusual stuff, but not so unusual that it doesn't sound like a name. Maybe more names that have dropped out of use. Definitely nothing in the top 100 or so.

Below are the girl names I like, can anyone suggest some boy's names please?

Oh this might be my favourite so far!

What could it be shortened to though?

SWITH-un with the th pronounced as in weather not thought.

DramaAlpaca · 20/08/2022 01:59

I might be wrong, but I think the normal spelling of Swithun is Swithin, as in St Swithin's Day.

Great name if you have the cojones to use it.

Jammies · 20/08/2022 14:15

Pronounced Swithy - like Smithy! 😁
