Please inspire me with non traditional boy names...

[MissMarpleBum]

I really only like 'Teddy' or 'Dougie'. I honestly have scoured the internet & can't find anything I like! I know 100's of Albie' s & Archie's, Jacks & Charlie's. I'm seriously panicking & at this rate will just be calling him Blob or something. Please help!

Just call him Douglas nn Dougie? It’s nice

Too many Teddys - Edwards and Theodores

My husband is Douglas, 90% of the time he goes by Doug except that his mum has always and still calls him Dougie, which I think is very sweet.

Thady 'Tay-dee' instead of Teddy - similar but more unusual!

@EstherHazy I really like this but at the same time feel I'm saying 'tidy' in a Scottish accent 🤣

I always liked Roscoe.

In general, I like names that can be shortened if that person prefers it to be. So Daniel (Dan or danny) Matthew (matt) Edward (Ted, Teddy, Ed or eddy) Alexander (Al or alex)

Me too and I don’t even have a Scottish accent 🤣
I think if you’ve got scottish roots then Dougie is great.

Alexander / Sandy

How about the less common Dougal as opposed to Douglas? I guess people might say it's less common for a reason but I quite like it.

Balonz?
