HELP us name our baby?!?!

[ChocOrange05]

DH and I are having a nightmare - we are rubbish at deciding on a name as we are both very fussy. Please make suggestions for boys names - I don't want anything common (i.e he will be one of 3 in his class)

I will apologise in advance for dismissing most of them, we've already had a gazillion suggestions but I am hoping one of you can hit the jackpot! There is a photo of him in my profile if that helps.

Thanks

LOL, I thought this might be you.

Do you have any names that find ok to give us a starting point.

More Horatio or Henry?

Ptomely or Peter?

My shortlist for boys (dd being a girl afterall!)was:

Dominic
Cameron
Raphael
James
Daniel

good luck!

He is absolutely beautiful. Congratulations

When I looked at his picture I immeadiately thought Henry.
Don't know why.

Others I personally like are;
Ernie
Walter/Walt for short
Oscar
Felix
Sebastian
Miles
Milo
Cole
Devon

My ds's are Ellis Niall and Ethan James.

Luca

I like Zac but DH doesn't.

Others we have previously considered and dismissed for various reasons are....

Cameron (as the whole name then sounds too scottish, which we're not)
Flynn
Aden

And others I can't remember - we quite like the idea of bringing back an old fashioned boys name.

So basically something known but not common.

He looks like a Harry.

Max
Joshua
Adam
Ben
Jack
James
Owen
David
Michael
Charlie
Tom
George
Alfie

Ned! What about Ned? I love Ned!!

I think he really looks like a Robin. Gorgeous.

caleb

btw - he is scrummy!!

Old names -
walter
Frederick
Richard
Albert
Stanley

He's scrummy. Looks like an Adam, Ben or Alex to me. Possibly a Felix or a Will.

I like Ned - DH doesn't

Seth?

I know a Seth and he is a cutie

I love:
Josiah
Jacobi
Oscar
Arthur
Charlie / Charles
Dominic
Gabriel
Jacob
Freddie

I like Zac (Zachary). Z names are very cool. I knew a guy called Zenobius.

He does have a bit of a Henry/Harry look about him.

Aiden
Simon

How gorgeous is he, reminds me of my ds when he was born. Congratulations.

ds Roan Jorge (Jorge being middle name)

Ok, to use your list as a starting point

I like Zac but DH doesn't.

Instead of Zachary, what about Barnaby, Gregory or Malachy? Barney/Greg/Mac

Flynn - prefer Finbar or Fintan or Finley.
Aden - OK but spell it Aidan.

If you like broadly celtic names, what about Lorcan or Rory or Fergus. You don't have to be Irish or Scottish imo.

And others I can't remember - we quite like the idea of bringing back an old fashioned boys name. Richard with Richie for short. Sort of Archie inspired but will date less. I also love Victor and think it's the next Oscar/Jaspar. Not saying that that's definitely a good thing. Just that it's coming back, I can feeeeel it.

I also like Donald which is another classic you could bring back!

Underused classics I love included Peter, Dominic and Marcus and Julius.

He looks a gorgeous little fellow. I think I'd call him Richard Julius (Richie) or Lorcan Marcus or Dominic Rory. Some 'demi-caledonian' suggestions there.

Divine baby! very jealous and can't wait for mine to be born (ages to go...)

I love Ned too. Classic old English but not often used. Can christen him Edward and use Ned as an abbreviation if you prefer.

If you like Zac how about Isaac? Or Max? If you like Flynn how about Finn? If you like Cameron then how about Campbell (or is that also too Scottish?), Caleb is also a good alternative. I secretly quite like Conrad (DH doesn't) and think Casper is rather cool too.

Arthur, Noah, Sebastian, Benedict, Felix, Jasper, Elliot, Lawrence....

Edgar

Oliver suits him, I think.

Thanks everyone - these suggestions are great, DH and I are going to look through them together. Keep em coming!!!

He is sooooo cute - and I love the nursery too! I have say James popped into my head but it isn't so unusual.....

Wilfred (Wilf)
Herbert (Herbie)
Albert (Albie)
Jeremiah?

Archie

xavier

Elliot

He's gorgeous BTW, you must be over the moon.

Oh dh came and spied and said he thinks he looks like an Andrew.
