Boy Name Struggles!

[Here4theaibu]

DS is Wilbur, also have Oscar born too early

Currently very early pregnant and we have always agreed that a baby girl would be Edith (Edie). We struggled last time to agree on a boys name and having the same problem this time!

At the moment we both like

Otis
Otto
Aldous

I like but husband doesn't

Bruno
Hugo
Jonah

We're leaning towards Otis at the moment but any other suggestions please??!!

Otis is great!

Do you like

Arlo
Milo
Leo
Angus
August
Albert
Rufus
Barnaby
Franklin
Asher
Orin
Ivan

Albert (known as Bertie) was our second choice last time but I think I've gone off it now! I do like Barnaby and Rufus but I know my husband isn't a fan

I think Otis is winning at the moment!

Otto is my favourite from your list, 2nd Otis. Not keen on your others.

Eli
Miles
Rowan

I love Otis, also Otto (slightly prefer!)

sorry for your loss ❤️

wilbur, Oscar and

Sidney
stanley
victor
ralph
rufus
rupert
vincent
arthur
orson
oswin
austin
august

Ernest?

I adore Bruno but Aldous is an interesting choice! Otis is good choice too.

Otis. Don't like
Otto OK
Aldous don't like
Bruno. Awul a pets name
Hugo nice
Jonah. Not sure

I'm sorry to hear about your Oscar 💔

to me Otis is a lift! My friend named her dog Otis, so that's taken over from the lift a bit, but now it's a dog🤣

I think it's safe to say we definitely have different tastes in names!

I think these go with Wilbur & possible future Edith-Edie

Arthur-Artie
Charles - Charlie

Harvey

Rupert

Ernest

Otis is great or how about

Quentin
Marcus
Vincent

Edgar

Edith is lovely and not one of the vintage names that are being used loads right now, which I love 😊

Some boy names that have taken me aback recently (because I like them):

Arley
Ari
Albie
Niven

I love Otis too

Otis is lovely and would flow really well.

For me & DH are choices were all family or culturally traditional names.

Similar to your choices Alphonso/Alfonso
Albert (Bert) is also nice, I have a friend who has a little boy called Bertie, short for Albert.

I also like someone’s suggestion of Vincent.

Otis and Otto are great names.

I really like Wilbur, Oscar and Edie.

Not such a big fan of your current boy name options. I think Bruno and Hugo are the best options. I don’t like Otis, personally. I think of it as a 2020s trendy name, so has a different feel to me than your other more vintage choices. like the previous suggestion of Ernest. Also maybe Alfred (Fred), Harold, Gilbert (Bert) would work.

Out of the six, I'd vote for Otis.
Otto sounds like generic 19th century German.
Aldous. Can you imagine shouting, hey, Aldous, did you remember to put the rubbish out?
Bruno, says the animal Bear or basically the colour brown.
Hugo screams Tory MP, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_Swire
Jonah, - and the whale, but why? Wholesome vegan person name.

Otis or ..
Augustus
Angus

Oakley
Oliver
Albie
Jago

I like Otis from your top choices but prefer Albert from your previous choices.

Lots of great suggestions on here already but here are mine:

Maximilian
Rupert
Linus
Raymond
Cuthbert
Peter
Harold
Simeon
Gideon
Sullivan
Solomon

Otis hands down

Elliot

Wilbur and Otis, all the way.
Edie is such a great name! DS has a friend Edie in his class (year 6). Love this name.
I always put Otis on the 'names list'. 😊

Other names:
Alasdair
Nicholas
Elias
Joseph
Henry
Finn
Finlay
Frederick
Rex
Lucian

Otis, Otto, and Aldous are all lovely and would all go nicely with Wilbur, maybe Otis in particular.

Austin
