Hi everyone, I’ve narrowed my list of boy names down to 8 but I’m trying to get down to a top 3. Please give me any opinions on these names!

Albert
Alistair
Edmund
Hugh
Hugo
Jasper
Laurence
Rupert

Alistair and Laurence are great. I quite like the others except for Jasper and Rupert, don't like them at all.

Hugh is my number one. A simple classic that's underused now (Hugo is the opposite, so not my taste- very trendy).

2nd choice Alistair (especially if you have any Scottish links) - always sounds so debonair to me.

3rd Laurence - again very elegant (and Laurie such a sweet diminutive).

Albert's very trendy "old man", Jasper a bit the same, but also makes me think of of pets, Rupert still has slightly posh overtones to me and Edmund's not as classic or nice as Edward imo.
