DH and I like classic names but we're struggling to find one we both like.

The below are what we have on our list at the moment:

Alfred
Arthur
Hugh
Emrys

What do you think of these 4, and what could we add to our list?

Other names we like but can't use, for various reasons:

James
Alexander
Thomas
George

Love Emrys! DH wouldn't let me have it, though to be fair it clashes with our surname.
Arthur is lovely too though obviously alot more common

Have you considered...

Gethin
Alasdair / Alistair
Nicholas
Rupert
Everett
Daniel
Patrick
Peter
Tobias

Emrys is absolutely lovely (and also the name of the coolest little kid I've ever met - only met one in my life!).

I love Alastair, Patrick and Daniel too of PP's suggestions. Lots of the others are nice but those would be my top 4!

Excellent choice for your DS1’s name OP 😁.

I'd go for Alfred from your list.

I came here just to find Baldrick. Or Percy. Actually, Bernard.

Bernard!! Now we're cooking on gas 😂
