Ok - we cannot agree on a boy's name so thought i would see what you good people could come up with!

We have a one syllabull surname which is a boy's name in itself. I like quite traditional names but with a twist of originality???!!!!

Our surname begins with L (i like Liam but it really doesnt go with our surname)

Anyway, please find me the perfect name !!!

TIA XX

these any good?
have you looked on the bounty website, there is a thing on there where you can check how popular your chosen name is, good for helping pick something more unusual so your childs name is more unique to them....

Mandymoo · 16/11/2005 09:46

Thanks PCM - I quite like Thomas or Nicholas but nothing really grabs me. We've chosen Evie for a girl's name and i just love it but cannot find a boy's name that just grabs me XX

(these are names I liked but which were vetoed by dh. My 2 lovely ds?s names are also mentioned on this thread! Are we on the right lines at all?)

Thomas is very popular if that bothers you, Nicholas less so.
