Boys name ideas please

[LaDiDaDi]

We found out on Wednesday that we are having a boy and I need some name ideas. We have a dd called Laura and I would like a well known but not very trendy boys name iyswim?

My thoughts so far are

Arthur
Elliott
Simon
Toby
Monty
Peter
Stephen??

but dp isn't struck on any one of them.
Would like a first name and then one middle name.

I like but can't use for family/friend reasons

Michael
James
Edward, could perhaps get away with this
Luke
William

I also really like Rory and Lawrence but they would be ridiculous with a sister called Laura.

Help please .

I love Toby. The others are ok, not keen on Stephen just because there are are so many Stephens my age (36). I love Rory and Lawrence and don't think they sound ridiculous with Laura.

May use Rory as a middle name but it's just the sound of it "Laura and Rory" is a bit too much of a tongue twister for me to say easily.

Alexander?

I am really sorry, the only one I like from your list is Arthur

What about

Matthew
Patrick
Adam
Daniel
Alexander

John
Jack
David
Leo (? too many L's ?)

I really like Arthur, Elliot and Monty from your list, although I don't think Arthur and Laura work well toghether (too many 'r's).

How about

Quentin?
Tobias?

Peter and Stephen

How about Nicholas?

OP, You have fabulous taste- my Ds (6.5) is Elliot Peter!

Elliot and Arthur I really like

Andrew?
Philip?
George?
Joseph?
Matthew?
I like the Nicholas suggestion. On your list, Toby and Peter stand out.

not sure about arthur and stephen. duncan, dont know why, springs to mind?

I like Peter from your list. Nicholas is nice, that'd have been on my own list I think. Dislike Elliot the most. Arthur too trendy and annoying.

In that category or well-known proper solid boys name, but not trendy or popular, I'd suggest

Marcus
Howard/Howie
Victor
Donald/Don
DOminic
Gregory/Greg
Richie
Guy
Julian
Pat rick
Fergus/Gus
Slightly trendier in that urban chic way, Bruce, Julius, Hugo, Hamish

Thedollshouse, yeah STephen does nothing for me because most of my friends have a brother/husband or boss called Stephen. Great name, but it needs to rest for a decade more.

Arthur...dislike old men names
Elliott....no will get Ellie
Simon..no, too 70s/80s
Toby...OK
Monty....really really dislike
Peter...OK
Stephen??...OK

How about

Matthew
Jacob
Lewis
Samuel
Ross
Niall
Seth
Andrew
Spencer
Joel
Joe
Charles
Quen tin
Christopher
Zachary
Francis

Have been away for the weekend so just back now.

Some of your suggestions are completely ruled out as the names of ex-h or dp (who wouldn't want ds named after him) or bil.

Zachary, Seth, Jacob, Niall, Hamish and Fergus are good ideas. I really like Fergus.

Do you think Nicholas is ok for a Christmas baby or will it seem a bit twee?

Loving Fergus and Seth, also have a soft spot for Stanley. Was going to suggest Gabriel but not for a christmas baby .

Arthur - no
Elliott - no. It's one of those names which is becoming a girl's name
Simon - no, bit wet
Toby - no, wet
Monty - no. Great Uncle
Peter - yes, good
Stephen - yes

What about MArk? STill seen as too retro?
Joe?
Thomas?

I like Tobias with the option of Toby.

None of the others.

How about Gregory?

Laura and Gregory sounds good.

Or Marcus?

laura and Marcus also sounds lovely.

I really like Toby from your list.

I also think Edward goes nicely with Laura.

It's so hard isn't it? I'm having DS2 in October and I just can't decide.

Aidan - my sons name
Ethan
Tim
Callum
Rowan
Charlie
Ewan
Archie
Lewie

OP - we are due a christmas boy as well and Fergus, Seth and Lawrence are top of our list atm

We also like:-

Noah
Dominic
Barnaby
Fraser
William
George
Saul
Zachary
Dennis
Rufus

Dp has previously said he likes Noah, will have to ask him if he's still keen.

Archie would have been our choice last time but I've sort of gone of it a bit now.

Fraser is good but it's a colleague's son's name though perhaps that connection is loose enough to ignore?

Jonathan?
