Any thoughts? I'm absolutely stuck for boys names still. Really want something slightly unusual but not weird.

I dont like Jasper because it reminds me of the 'baddie' in 101 Dalmations.

Oscar is nice though.

Im afraid I think of Digby as a dogs name

To me Jasper is a cat's name, like Felix.

I like it but I can't help but think of 'ladies that lunch' and 'yummy mummies'.

Jasper my favourite too, but DH not convinced. Also love Milo, Miles, Gabriel, Aubrey snap
Others up for debate in our house inc Lucien, Leo/Leon, Isaac, Orson, Jesse, Asher, Evan, Xavier, Arthur, Lawrence, Reuben, Oliver.

Have more or less settled on Lily for girl, but also love Scarlett.
I personally think a Lily and a Jasper would be ideal.

Good luck!

Btw LuLuBai, Arlo is a gorgeous name. Friends of our have an Arlo and an Otis

I suspect it's one of those names that is far more popular with women than men.

PuppyMonkey · 24/05/2009 13:15

Wow that's an extensive list nappy addict! A bit pointless too as Jasper is much nicer than any of them names!

Karam · 25/05/2009 10:11

Love Jasper. I used to teach one and I don't think I ever made the carrot connection!

RedCharityBonney · 25/05/2009 20:28

audley we have very similiar taste!

Jasper good. Felix good. Guy, Miles, Justin, Barnaby, Hugh, Duncan, Toby. etc etc.

RedCharityBonney · 25/05/2009 20:28
