Just coming on here to see if anyone can suggest any other names.
Baby boy is due in the next couple of weeks and we cannot decide on a name!
I LOVE Luca - DH not keen
DH Loves Orson although I feel when I say it is sounds too much like Awesome!

Others on our list but we just don't love are -
Arnie
Kai
Rudy

Middle name will be James and surname is longish ending in Man!

I feel like I've traipsed through so many previous threads but nothing jumps out at me!
Would love any suggestions!!
Thank you

I love Luca! Orson is awful - it’s a town in Indiana & sounds like ‘our son’ in a strong Irish accent

How about:
Reuben
Conor
Leo
Harley
Arthur

🤣🤣
Thank you for this!!
Love Conor and Reuben!

Thanks all, quite like Hugo!
Will feedback suggestions to DH who will probably shoot me down again haha!

I love the fact she’s called Dot! So you like an unusual name but not made-up, with a cool nickname.

Austin
His friends call him Audie.
or Frances
more commonly known as Fran.

Dot and Fran Spiderman.
Dot and Audie Spiderman

Or don’t you like Jimmy? You don’t meet many under fifty but it’s a solid name.

(apologies if your surname is actually Spiderman)

I also came on to say Hugo and find lots of others have said similar. I think it sounds “right” with Ottilie. I think you’ve got to be careful because, as pp said, Ottilie is quite a “posh” sounding name so it isn’t going to go well - IMO - with stuff like Kai, which is a bit more contemporary.

Ottilie and Hugo
Ottilie and Rufus
Ottilie and Henry/Harry
Ottilie and Sebastian/Seb
Ottilie and Rupert
Ottilie and Benjamin/Ben
Ottilie and Julian/Jules

Due to the complexity of the name Ottilie, QuintizQuirk would compliment it beautifully. 💗

I love Ottilie. It isn’t always well received on here but I think it’s stunning

I like Sebastian just not sure how it flows with our surname!
Thank you for the compliment on Ottilie, judging by a few comments above I can see it's not always well received but then if we were all the same life would be boring, just a shame some grown adults get kicks out of putting other people down, especially children!
She couldn't be anything else though, my little Dot!
