Am currently pregnant with first dc, (due beg. Jan). Don't know what we're having, but have already settled on girls name we both love, (Holly). Cannot, however, pick a boys name. Current thinking goes as follows:

Byron (my choice)
Dexter (DH's choice)
Nate
Luca
Marcus (DH hates this one, and has already vetoed it sadly)
Freddie (we both like this one, but our surname also starts with FRE- so would sound a bit odd)

DH thinks Byron is 'too poncey', and will be misheard/mis-spelt as Bryan.

I think Dexter will just lead people to think of psychopathic serial killers.

All views welcome, (even negative)
Cheers

Like Marcus, and think Nate short for either Nathan or Nathaniel would be good.

I think the surname begining with Fre along with the Freddie could be a positive point. I really like aliterative names. Good and strong.

Thanks to all who have posted since last night. Had forgotten about Dexter's Lab- used to love watching that with my little brother!! Glad that someone else remembers the lovely Dex Dexter from Dynasty too, thought it was just me!
