Ideas for boy's names ending in "r"

34 replies

We know we are having a boy and I think names ending in "r" scan nicely with our surname.

So far I've come up with Peter, Arthur, Oliver, Oscar... of which only Oliver appeals and I feel it is a bit popular.

Any other ideas?

Oh fast responses - and some great ideas. These beat DH's suggestion hands down. He likes...wait for it....TREVOR. WTF???

Victor and Gregor would be my favourites.

Trevor is awful. I can just see him, shuffling round the filing room in a threadbare short sleeved shirt
with a leaky biro in his pocket, countdown to retirement, grey M&S cardi on the bag of his chair (egg stains on the cardigan).

Sorry to anybody whose dad is called Trevor and is a CEO/all round wonderful lovely person.

Oh Gregor is nice and Connor too.

Trevor is too bad for words - DH thinks it is cool (!!??) due to someone he went to school with 30 years ago...
