Me and my OH are calling our baby boy (due in 6 weeks) Stanley.

It's the only boys name that we could both agree on infact! We don't know any Stanley's but just loved the name and think it's different enough without being strange or odd.

Middle name will be James :-)

LOVE it! it's the only name that i have thought of since having ds that I wished I had used....

think stan for a grown up is also cool....

my mother was HORRIFIED by the idea....

It goes with the other new old name - Reggie.

I think it's quite sweet.

brimfull · 28/08/2008 16:56

I'm not keen

beanieb · 28/08/2008 16:57

I love it and it would be on my list.

gladders · 28/08/2008 16:57

Blu - no, do not like Reggie at all....

I think flat stanley's brother was called Arthur - i think that is far nicer?

I love Stanley, and it is in the top three if we had another baby boy. Although one drawback is that first born is called Arthur, and they would therefore have the same names as the brothers in Flat Stanley.
