I like James but it’s also a little bit insipid. Also like George but I can’t use it for various reasons, ditto Jack. I suppose I like traditional names that aren’t too posh or ‘geeky’. Any ideas ladies? I also like Leo but DH doesn’t.

Matthew is lovely in my opinion and not over used today.

I always liked Edward. It's a good solid name and you can use one of many variants; Ted, Teddy, Ed, Eddy, Ned etc

Our boys list was fairly traditional, with lots of traditional boys names already taken in the family. We ended up with a shortlist of Wilfred/William/Walter (we were being indecisive about the W's), Benedict, Stanley and Samson.
