Just found out that we are having a little boy, and need a name!

So far I have though of:

Theo(dore)
Felix
Benedict
Ferdinand
Louis
Milo

DH likes Michel - I'm not so sure....

I love Felix and Milo. Really don't like Ferdinand as it just makes me think of Rio Ferdinand

Love Milo.

I like Dexter

allgonebellyup · 15/07/2008 14:01

Felix is my ds!

You are not allowed his name, ok?

allgonebellyup · 15/07/2008 14:02

Isaac was the second choice for ds - and as i wont be having any more babies you are allowed this name!

izzybiz · 15/07/2008 14:03

Thanks!

oo I like Michael Theodore, or Michael Benedict
hang on i have misread, does he like Michael or Mitchel or am I just easily confused?

rolymoma · 15/07/2008 14:21

cant get tweenies out of head for milo im afraid. louis is a very popular choice which may be good or bad depending on how you view it. like benedict - it was one of my choices for my DD IYSWIM. theo and felix also good

I really like Theodore. I also like Hugo.

BigBadMousey · 15/07/2008 15:20

Michael or Mitchell??? I am confused also TwoFir .

Michael Benedict is really nice.

I have a Michael and have had lots of positive comments on it (which suprised me tbh). Wanted to call him Jethro though - it would have really suited him!

chandellina · 15/07/2008 15:56

Felix lovers - is there too much of a cat connotation?
we're considering this one too

Collision · 15/07/2008 15:59

This week I have met a baby Vincent, tiny baby Dennis and a baby Malcolm.

No comment.

I like short names for boys so I do like a lot of your names

Theo
Zac
Max
Ned
Hugh
jack
Tom
Sam
Ben
Will

i have a calum and angus - however calum was chosen before he was born as i like the name - do wish i had waited to find out his personality though hey ho -can think of a number of names that would have suited him better.
