Hiya everyone,
Ive just a had a little boy and he doesn’t have a name! His sister is called Charlotte Elizabeth and we had a girls name picked out but can’t agree on boys names.

Names we can’t use: Alexander, Daniel, Matthew, Benjamin, Jacob, Thomas, Noah, George, Alfred, Max, Leo, Jonathon, Nicholas

Please can you give some suggestions, as I can’t seem to think of anything I like and can use.
Thank you so much!

Branwell. But I don’t think he sets an example you would want the baby to follow :).

Andrew, Isaac, Henry, Lucas.

Adam James. Go with a slightly shorter name. You will be relieved in years to come when you are filling in multiple forms for each child - eg dental check ups, immigration forms on holiday or whatever. You will get very tired if they all have long names like Charlotte Elizabeth and you’re trying to supervise multiple little people running around while you complete loads of forms (I learned this the hard way 😂)

Frederick is perhaps the most classic name which isn’t in the list of those you’ve ruled out.
