Oh god. The shame of finding myself on this section but GIVE ME BOYS' NAMES PLEASE

[FrannyandZooey]

I am so stuck. I have girls' names galore, please give me nice slightly arty boys' names that won't get hugely popular in a year or two

Meh...I suppose we'll have to agree to differ on Lysander Aitch. Clem is very lovely...although it does rhyme with phlegm.

Franny one of your short list is one of my dc's name !!! (exited emotion!)

Also an obscure name i initially picked for my baby keeps popping up..most odd but means i cannot use it

where is the lovely Hatrick it's not like my lady to miss out on one of these threads?

Leander sounds hmmm soo not my tasse de thé..

Clement is sweet

I like Clarence too

I really don't like Clem - the way it looks or sounds
funny how you all love it

I love Otto. I like palindromes. Good and solid, no nonsense.

Isaac is a nice name and not hugely over used as far as i'm aware

Aliway - and waste 15 years of the child's life as he is asked: Isaac, how do you spell that?

i don't like clem either franny...sounds kind of medical or something.
what about red ?

ours are called isaac, (loads of them), alexander (Xandie for short - loads of them) and Seth (none so far - except in US). I loved Magnus, Remus, patrick, ludo, otto, oscar nearly got there, Rafferty.

Good grief! 700 posts Franny!!

How about Octavius? Or Digby? Randall? Radley? I like Theo too. Clem always makes me think of phlegm.

Paula, do you have a Pasha???

(Or - it's the pet form of Pavel in Russian - do you have a Pavel?)

not yet wendy!

has anyone mentioned

Taigh(pronounced "tig" as in tig-er)

Irish name that means poet!

anyone suggested Lorcan?

surely we are all peonouncing lucien like he in the Liver birds?

I quite like Calvin. I read lots of Calvin and Hobbes in the 90s.

And Cameron
And Sonny.

is that "Looshan"? i am still liking it, whichever spelling and pronunciation, but it has this slightly cold edge to it, hasn't it?

we know a Lorcan

I like Calvin and Hobbes but not sure about using either name

franny have read thread and seen our children share a name!!!

Franny, only read the first half-dozen posts on your ginormous thread.

Am loving Otto

What about Murray ?

oh you have one with name of ds you mean?
oh I do wish you would email and tell me the others, I could steal one
