I'm pretty sure this baby is a boy. Typically we have decided on a girl's name and are struggling with boys.

The names we can agree on are

Finn (we have a three syllable surname, so don't need a longer version)
Angus (too Scottish living in England?)
Oscar (is it too trendy?)

The names that I love, but he doesn't are

Victor
Magnus
Alastair

I like Magnus is the nicest.

There's at least one Oscar in every primary class at the moment, if that puts you off.

ja9 - Our girl's name is Clara Beatrice.

What is your Finn's middle name?

Apologies ja9, I misread your post and thought you had a Finn

Finn Magnus
Finn Alasdair
Finn Hector

ChilloHippi - Angus, Magnus and Fergus as siblings ?!! What a mouthful.

ChilloHippi · 13/10/2009 13:06

Indeed. The woman was very mad though. It used to make me cringe when she referred to Fergus as Fergie.

I have a 13-day old magnus in my arms as we speak. didn't realize it was so popular. Took my dh a while to come round to it. What's your dh's objection to it?

biscuitbear · 13/10/2009 14:27

I like Oscar and Angus best.

lovemybabyboy · 14/10/2009 11:33

My favourite is Oscar (but I might be biased )
I also like Finn, Alastair and Victor.
I don't really like Angus or Magnus...sorry.
