Baby boy born on Saturday and still doesn’t have a name! Names we do like but can’t use, for various reasons, are Jude, Leo and Joey. Want something similar but a little less popular - any suggestions?

He will be little brother to Bonnie and Thea if that helps…

He is absolutely beautiful- congratulations! Ellis is my favourite softer boys name (it means kind, benevolent). I think it suits him and goes really well with your daughters and surname. Good luck and come back to update us!

Oh he is gorgeous !!!!

I agree with pp - I think he suits the name Ellis. I have an Ellis and I LOVE his name. Congratulations op,

He’s simply adorable!
I have a Kit so clearly I like it. Also think Ellis is lovey with your surname and his siblings
congratulations

Please update us when you've decided! X

Vaughan. Because it's a bloody good name, you want a softer sound, he's dainty and the youngest.

Another vote for Peter. Very unusual these days!

He won’t thank OP for it. It’s old and dull. Kids want to be called something that blends in.

I quite like the east end hard man names that seem fashionable at the moment - Stanley, Frank, Reggie, Arthur, Ralph?
