Ds thinks we should call the baby "torture" - anybody have any better ideas for a boy's name?

[Wallace]

I know there have been so many boys' names threads recently, but we are totally stuck. We have a name if the baby (due in 3 weeks) is a girl, but cannot agree on a name for a boy...

Anything considered...apart from "torture"

Traditional? Old fashioned? Biblical? Syllables? Letters to avoid?

Malcolm.

Bert

Peregrine

my nephew came up with quite a few when he got a new cat - Marmite and Sidecar being the most memorable.....

C'mon - give us something to go on!!

William?

Dirk

pierre

Cedric

Fats

Shirley

lance

Our surname starts "Mac" so avoid any Max type names! Ds has a Roman name, and dd had a name derived from a gaelic name. Both their names are very unusual - have only evr heard of a couple of people with the same names. So something a bit different. two syllables would be good. I quite like traditional names.

skarloey

so not maximus then!

I love Ambrose but we already have an 'A' so we can't use it.

Ambrose Mac... sounds good.

Angus
Cameron
Campbell
Donald
Douglas
Duncan
Finley
Hamish

Keep them coming

Ambrose is best so far, but maks me think of pudding ;)

And dh says nothing from Thomas the Tank Engine

The other problem is that we live in a very small community and once a name has been used, you don't want to use it again for very many years to avoid confusion! Which unfortunately rules out most of schneebly's list.

Dexter?

Stanley

I wanted jayden for a boy but dh wasn't keen we ended up with Lewis.

Caleb
