Albert or Arthur?

[irisblue]

Hello,

Just wondering what you thought of Albert (with nickname Albie) or Arthur for a boy? Arthur I like as a full name, but not so keen on the nn Art (any other suggestions?) whereas I love Albie and just a bit unsure of Albert!

Thankyou!

sorry that diddnt look right.... pronounced ARFEE

I prefer Arthur, but I have met about 3 of them in the last 6 months so I think it's an on-the-up kind of name.

Albert not so sure, but agree Bertie is a fab NN!

I have a nephew called Albert and think it is a lovely name. His nickname keeps changing sometimes Albie sometimes Bert or Bertie.

I personally don't like either - but if I had to choose I'd probably go with Arthur.

Albert much nicer, love Albie as nn.

Albert gets my vote.

Albert is so much more versatile and he can do what he wants with it when he's older. Lumber him with Arthur and he'll only have Art for an alternative option when he becomes a disgruntled teenager wishing his parents had not been so hard on him

arthur much better imo.

I had Albert on my list but DH rejected suggestion on account of slang for willy piercing (Prince Albert).
