I had a good list of names. But sadly dp has narrowed it right down to 2.
whilst I quite rather like them, i am not sure either of them is THE name.

so hit me with them, anything you can think of. but it must be cool.

ooh Levi and Vincent were on my initial list.

i really like Levi (like primo levi) but wonder if it's considered (and i hate this word, so forgive me) a little chavvy these days??

ds1's name is in the bible too. but not a lot of people know that

I would say Christian (I think that's a writer's /stateman's / actor's name)...but I see that your dp doesn't like biblical (although despite it's obvious connotations, I don't see it like that)

Asher is great, but biblical.
I love Dashiell, but DH vetoed it. I thought it sounds great full, but also shortened to Dash.

Vincent? Old skool Nu-cool?

controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 29/04/2009 23:29

ASA!

thisisyesterday · 29/04/2009 23:29

he says Asa sounds like Acer, the pc manufacturer.
which it does
but that doesn't matter. does it?

Please, Richard shortened to Richey. That gives him lots of options. Including Diccon - which I've always thought is a fab shortening!

werewabbit · 29/04/2009 23:30

Eli
Gabriel

All sound very biblical though. Met a Malachi today, thought that was cool

LedodgySwine · 29/04/2009 23:30

Seth.

LackaDAISYcal · 29/04/2009 23:30

Asa...always associated with dodgy perms favoured by 1970's footballers ala Asa Hartford

Please don't do it.
