Brother for Marcus

Hi everyone,

I am almost in the third trimester expecting my second baby boy. My eldest, Marcus, is almost 4.

My husband and I are a bit stuck on a name. In general we find that there are a lot of names we both like but not enough to choose, or what he loves I don't and vice versa. We don't have a shortlist and only have one name that we are really considering - Gabriel.

The fact that I feel quite relaxed about it and aren't constantly scrolling through name lists is making me feel a bit mixed. Is it because we have found our name? Obviously this is a huge decision and I want to give it proper time and attention but nothing else is jumping out to either of us.

I never discuss names with anyone I know but Mumsnet has always been good to me with anonymous advice! Just throwing it out there, do you like the name, does it go nicely with Marcus? Any other suggestions?

Thank you x

Thank you everyone, this has been so helpful! Some great names to think about here, although for now at least Gabriel just feels right. 3 months to go!
