Louis or Archie for a boy

[ltrue]

These are the top two contenders for our baby boy..the middle name will be David - opinions greatly welcome, ladies please...

I have a Louis

Out of a group of 8 of us, there are 2 Archies. No Louies to date.

i know a family who have both! Louis came first.... they are both lovely boys and so I like both names!
I'd probably go for Louis as slightly more unusual (and no issue about whether/not to have the long form as the proper name.....) - wouldn't even occur to me to pronounce the 's'...

Agree, gladders - who on earth would pronounce the s? It's either Louis or Lewis fgs.

gladders - so do I (are they in SE London)?

I love Louis

ooh yes legalalien they are....

how funny if we both know them...

erm - another identifying factor is that they live in an absolutely delicious house....

yep, bound to be them (think it was in a magazine if the same one?). Don't know them terribly well socially, so do not panic re risk of being unmasked! Love the potential "two degrees of separation" thing though.

a magazine? am intrigued...

we only know them through ds - I get to pick him up and drool occasionally!!

I love louis!Not keen on Archie I think everyone went mad on Archie's and alfie's last year around where i live theres loads of them!

Louis. But actually, Archie is a bit too trendy. I prefer Richie.

Like both names.
