We are due our second boy in November this year. Picking a name has been so difficult!

What is everyone’s opinion on Ashton?

There’s something about it I think is nice for an Autumn baby. Probably easy for them to say as a toddler. Familiar but not too common. Opinions please :)

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

We nearly used Ashton but had a girl. I like the soft 'sh' sound. I don't know any but know an Aston and he's lovely.

I like the SH sound too, Aston is a lovely name, but can’t shorten it to Ass… Ash is probably one of the best shortened names, it’s strong and simple and it’s a tree too. Also not weird that no one knows it or how to pronounce the name, but also not common and over used

This is probably location dependant but I just think of the town Ashton under Lyne, which is normally just referred to as Ashton.
There's a big IKEA there, but other wise it looks pretty grim and run down.

Ashton is ok but it might get shortened to Ash… which isn’t nice (🚬)
