I created a thread the other day asking for opinions on 10/12 names however I don't really love any of them. I would like some inspiration so what are your sons names?
(Only share is you're happy of course) :)

Peter, named after his grandfather. I have known lots of Peters over the years, it was a popular name in my generation. Every single one was /is a laid back, funny nice guy. DS lives up to his namesakes.

Whatever your choice it doesn’t need to be popular or relevant to now, just as long as you like it.

Is anyone going to put the real names of their children on here?

Neither am I!

@pinkmags "Is anyone going to put the real names of their children on here?"

I see absolutely no reason not to.
