Third boy name help please!!!

[K4tieT]

Would really appreciate your opinions and suggestions for my third boy on the way!
We have an Edward (known as Edward, occasionally Ed) and Henry…

We like but don’t love any of the following: (hubby quite keen on an ‘R’ name!!)

Rupert
Reuben
Rufus
Ralph
Rex
Jude
Otis

thank you! 🩵

Richard - another king

Jude is my favourite, followed by Reuben. They all seem quite 'current' compared to your other boys though.

With Edward and Henry I would imagine their brother to be something like George, James, William, Albert, Arthur, Thomas, Joseph, Alexander. Very traditional.

I second Richard. It’s a great name!
I’ll add Roland to the mix.

From your list, Jude is my favourite.

Rupert is lovely
Rex too

Rex, Otis or Jude

My children have two names off your list!

Reuben is my favourite of your ideas, with Edward and Henry. Or do you like
Rory
George
Arthur
Robert (Robbie / Bobby)
Frederick / Freddie
Oscar
Matthew
Adam
James

Edward, Henry and Richard
Edward, Henry and Regan
Edward, Henry and Raphael
Edward, Henry and Robert
Edward, Henry and Elias
Edward, Henry and Louis
Edward, Henry and Benjamin

Richard
Rory
Rex
Samuel
Peter

Edward, Henry and

Richard
Rupert
Roland
Rex
Ralph
Remigius

Rhett
Ryan
Randall
Roland
Robin
Rhys

Thanks so much everyone!

I should have said we can’t use William or Arthur! Edward’s middle name is Albert (after my grandad) and Richard is actually my dad’s name!!!!!

Was trying to stay away from some of the obvious kings or Thomas trains!!!! So not super keen on George, James & Alexander hence thinking a little out of the box!

I do like Louis which fits with our ‘royal’ kind of vibe.

Louis is fabulous!

I like Rupert or Rufus best of your list

george
rowan
robert
arthur
felix
vincent
leo
alexander
theodore
christopher/ kit
spencer
wilfred
william
leonard
thomas

Jude. I like pp’s Wilfred suggestion.

We have one ds with a very similar name, and another with one off your list.

I love Louis from your list.

Another R name - Raffy/ Rafferty?

Edward, Henry and Owen

Not sure your current picks really fit in style with your other boys. If you don’t like the obvious royal/ Thomas train type name to fit in style with Edward and Henry then how about lesser known kings/aristocracy etc - thinking maybe Alfred, Frederick, Max(imilian) ,John, Robert, David etc

Or go very classic Biblical as that also works great with Edward and Henry in style- Daniel, Joseph, Benjamin, Adam, Jacob, Samuel, Michael etc

Oh, I like pp suggestion of Owen - similar style to Otis on your list but more classic/less trendy. Similar sounding Rowan might also work well if you definitely want an “R” name, as although it’s not as classic like your other boys names, it at least shares the same shortish, 2 syllable, Top 100 style of Edward and Henry.

Richard really does work best, but if you don’t want that how about Robert?

Louis is a good suggestion. I'll throw Gregory in as well as an underused option.

Cuthbert ( Bert/Bertie) fits with your other names.

Cuthbert was a Saint.

Rafe?

Raphael (Rafa for short)
River
Rowen
Rocco
Ralphie
Ralph

Reginald
Rex
