Name for my SON!

This will be our third and last baby, and our first boy (still in shock as I was certain it would be another girl!)

We have a Cordelia and Vivienne already, so that’s kind of the vibe.

We like:

Hugo
Peter
Cameron (but I am slightly put off by the meaning)

Any opinions on these or other suggestions are welcome!

I like Hugo and Peter.
I don't think Cameron really goes with the vibe of the girls.

Thank you everyone! My favourite is definitely Hugo but need to work on my husband for that one.

Your suggestions are great thanks @Mumofgirls2017, particularly love Henry and Edward! Adding them to my list.

Hugo for sure! I also don't mind Peter and think it works fine with your girls' names.

I think Peter is really sweet, it is overdue for a comeback. It goes well with your girls' names.

Whereas I don't really like the sound of Hugo, plus it's been popular for a few years now, would be less unusual. It also matches the giris' names though.

Congratulations, from your list I think Peter is lovely name & goes well with your daughters names.

freshsunday · 20/12/2025 11:56

Peter is lovely - both in how it sounds and looks written down. I imagine a strong and thoughtful boy/man!

user1492757084 · 20/12/2025 12:09

I like Peter and Hugh

YellowStockings · 20/12/2025 12:09

I LOVE Peter (and Edward from other suggestions), not keen on Hugo (sorry).

James

Peter is lovely.

CloudyAgain · 20/12/2025 12:12

I absolutely love love Peter. My best friend has a 16 year old Peter and you just don’t come across them very often in children and teens. It’s a lovely stoic and elegant name IMO

plumpunnet · 20/12/2025 12:14

Peter and Hugo are lovely

Not keen on Cameron (will be Cam), Hugo is ok but popular. I like Peter but not keen on Pete and it feels a bit plain.
I suggest Horatio or Hugh.

Your girls names are lovely.
I think Peter is far too basic to go with your girls names. Hugo is a much better fit.
Sorry but I think of Peter Sutcliffe when someone says Peter.
I’d use Hugo.

BeaLola · 20/12/2025 12:43

Love Peter - it's rarely used and it's my DF name and he is the loveliest 94 year old

I second this view

pilates · 20/12/2025 12:44

I was going to say Edward sounds nice with your girls names

CocoViva · 20/12/2025 12:48

Ah I wasn’t aware of Hugo becoming popular as I have never met one (or taught one). I obviously have tried to avoid more popular names in the past so might have to reconsider.

Peter is my dad’s name and I have always thought it was really sweet for a little boy but also works for a man.

@HugoYorwayand @Pettenellmy husband is pushing for Horatio. Might have to consider that one!

I must move in different circles! It’s my DF name, both BIL, my (much younger) manager at work and was the name of my first love! Dead common to me!

OldBeyondMyYears · 20/12/2025 12:49

Really not keen on Hugo - and it doesn’t really go with your girls names.

Peter is great though, as are Henry and Edward.

Have you thought about James? That fits with your girls names, as does Robert (which has a similar vibe to Peter).

Purplecatshopaholic · 20/12/2025 12:51

Love your girls names op. Hugo is fab, as is Peter. Congrats on your son.
