We are stuck on a name for our boy. Arthur and Jude are our front runners, which name do you prefer?

Other names we like:
. Jack
. Chester
. Edward
. Theo

And if you can think of any others to add to our list, that would be great
Thank you

Jack would get my vote

ButterflyBitch · 28/04/2023 21:44

Arthur but I do also really like Jack and Theo. They’re all names I suggested for my son. He has none of those names. 😭

DancingWithTheMoonlitKnight · 28/04/2023 21:44

Jude

I hate the name Arthur.

Pearfacebananapoop · 28/04/2023 21:44

Jude.
I know Arthur is popular but it makes me think of Arthur Fowler.
They are quite polar choices.

ladygindiva · 28/04/2023 21:44

Jude or Edward here, but tbh I love all your choices!

Awrite · 28/04/2023 21:45

Jude
Then Jack and Theo

Don't like the rest.

DoNutSweatTheSmallStuff · 28/04/2023 21:45

Jack or Theo.
Chester is quite cool though and much less popular.

I always think of Jude as a girl.

I like Jude, Edward and Arthur.

I think Edward is the most classic one and the least likely to date. .

I also like;

Henry
Thomas
John
Daniel

Jude

shoopshoopdedoo · 28/04/2023 21:55

Love Jack and Edward.

I really dislike Arthur, although I’m not sure why, and it seems to be very popular where I am!

Shortkiwi · 28/04/2023 22:00

Really dislike Arthur and Chester. We have a Jude and Jack in our family so really like those! Also like Edward and Theo.

HowManySunflowers · 28/04/2023 22:01

Edward is my favourite from your list.

PickledScrump · 28/04/2023 23:36

Edward and jack are great. Others I don’t like

emmathedilemma · 29/04/2023 06:29

Arthur, Jack or Edward.
i like Theo but it seems very popular in recent years.
I really don’t like Jude or Chester.

Missmiller · 29/04/2023 06:48

Jude. It reminds me of Jude Law. The only issue I have with it is that Jude sounds like a shortened version of Judith.

Chester is a big No for me as we live near the city of Chester!

I like Jack and Theo too.

I dislike Arthur and Edward. They sound like old men!

rainbowstardrops · 29/04/2023 07:15

I prefer Jude then Jack then Theo.
Not keen on the others but that's just my personal choice.

WaltzingWaters · 29/04/2023 07:17

Jude

blondie87 · 29/04/2023 07:17

Love Jude, Arthur or Edward. Can’t go wrong with any of those!

blondie87 · 29/04/2023 07:18

Other suggestions:
Felix
Oscar
Miles
Ethan
Rafe

Thatsshallot1967 · 29/04/2023 07:38

Edward is a fabulous name!

HAF1119 · 29/04/2023 07:54

I like Jude and Theo :)

Jude over Arthur, it's so lovely. But I do like Arthur still.

. Jack - Too plain
. Chester - No sounds like chestnut
. Edward - Just not for me
. Theo - I really do like Theo, it's great

So my favourite is Jude followed by Theo and Arthur.
