What boy name/s have you heard recently that stood out to you as a beautiful name for a boy? Possibly something you’ve never heard before, maybe something you’ve heard before but don’t hear often.

Four pages in and no one has suggested Ballonz.

Mumsnet is going off the boil.

@PoppyBloom I love Tobias, we're finding out today if baby is a boy or girl.

I'm loving Fiachra (Fia-cra) right now for a boy or Fionnuala for a girl

My little boys best friend is a Fionnuala. He calls her noodle for short. Such a pretty name.

We have an Elias and an Isaac.

We liked Talia/ Tali for a girl

Reuban and Oren were also on our list.

I recently came across Ocean and I've fallen in love with it

I taught a little girl named Ocean swimming lessons 20 years ago. It’s beautiful

I teach a boy called Elvis. When I saw the name on the register I thought he’d have to be quite a strong character to carry off the name. In actual fact he’s a really sweet, quiet little boy who keeps to himself and yet the name absolutely suits him down to the ground.
