DH and I are struggling to find a boys name that we both think "Great! Yes!" to. The trouble we have is DH is a Scout Leader so lots of boys names remind him of someone
Have got some girls names sorted, which Dh thinks have a nursery rhyme type of theme to them
Rebecca
Lucy
Sophie
Emily

Any suggestions for boys names that are similar?

These are great, thanks ladies. I love Aidan and Tobias, but DH vetoed both of them.

Any more on this vein?

We've just had a Miles and there don't seem to be many around. Both the registrar and the health visitor commented on it. We just fancied something a bit different but not made up.

I like Tobias.
'Nursery rhyme names' eh?! Jack? Tom? Billy? George?

My personal favourite boys' names are: Edward, Edmund (Narnia link so not quite a nursery rhyme but...), Barnaby (v cute!), Benedict, Rowan and Sebastian. Hector is good too, or Isaac.

It seems that you like quite traditional names, so I probably won't be much help...but how about:

Joshua
Gabriel

Sorry, quick hijack - Lockets I see you said Cassius I had my 20 week scan a couple of weeks ago and we were just a little bit disappointed that we won't be able to use the name Cassius (which we both adore) as we're having a girl!

JANEITEisntErudite · 21/11/2009 14:17

Ooh yes - Gabriel is yummy. And Laurence - how did I forget Laurence?

We really liked Solomon 'Sol' for short and Lachlan 'Lochie' for short.

I also think Gabriel is a lush name, but have met too many laurences at DH's school (teaches primary) who I didn't really like to agree on that name.
