Frank 1000000%

A great, solid name. It's timeless and goes beautifully with Romy.

cupcaske123 · 04/08/2024 21:32

Miles.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 04/08/2024 22:11

Mack is very very cool - it would certainly be the one many of the young boys I know would pick. I do feel like it should be short for something (maybe Macsen or Cormac?) but that’s just personal taste - and you already have pretty Romy which some see as a nickname- type name too, so I suppose they already fit style-wise as they are.

Love Sonny!

Alltheparmesanplease · 04/08/2024 22:14

Sonny!

shoopshoopdedoo · 04/08/2024 22:22

Love the name Frank!
Also like Miles and it sounds lovely with Romy.
Not so keen on the others.

Thank you! Yes, we had thought about a longer version but not too keen on the longer names we could find , I liked macson but my DH not keen at all!

Boris Johnson’s two youngest are Romy and Frank so I don’t think I could go with Frank lol. I like Mack and Miles.

user1492757084 · 05/08/2024 03:46

With Romy, I prefer Mack.

MirandaBlu · 05/08/2024 03:59

Congratulations! I love Romy. My fave of the boy names you listed is Miles, but I also really like the idea a PP posted of Cormac with Mac for short. I think Mac(k) alone seems too informal to me, but that may be from hearing it so much in Scotland as a shortening of surnames starting with Mac-. Also want to suggest Mason, which in my head kind of goes along with the Miles vibe.

Firsttimebabymummy · 05/08/2024 07:44

I like Frank best. But I think Miles pairs better with Romy.
So my favourites in order would be

Miles
Frank
Mack

Nicebloomers · 05/08/2024 08:27

Frank ❤️

ladycarlotta · 05/08/2024 11:58

I do love Frank but bear in mind that if you have a Romy and a Frank you will have two out of three of Boris and Carrie Johnson's kids' names. Might not matter to you. Do you fancy calling a third Wilfred?

Argh I didn't know his youngest was Frank! I used Romy first so definitely didn't copy him haha. 🙈

Haha I did not know this until pp commented 🙈 definitely don't want anyone thinking I've been inspired by him 😬

Boris Johnson has a football team of kids, it would be difficult to choose one he hasn’t used already! I wouldn’t over think it tbh.

crostini · 05/08/2024 15:15

Love Sonny

QueenOfTheNihilist · 05/08/2024 15:24

Frank, Miles or Mack.

Frank is my favourite.

QueenOfTheNihilist · 05/08/2024 15:25

No one will know who B Johnson is once they are in primary school, let alone what a couple of his kids are called.

EastLondonCoffeeFiend · 09/08/2024 08:52

I really like Miles, Frank and Mac- all names on my list too (although Mac is short for Macsen).

Other names I like that could also go with Romy:
Hugh
Edmund
Wesley
Winston / Win
Otto
Jonah
Kit
Ludo
