Right- boys names...

[PregnantGrrrl]

Suggestions please.

Old fashioned, but not silly. Preferably something isn't easily shortened.

We already have a George (almost a year old)...Tom is on the cards for this one, but not a cert.

Help please!

i loved Barnaby or Barney for my ds, but our surname begins with a B.

What about Rupert? Fred, Miles, James? Jacob?

(I like Tom btw).

we had loads of purple dinosaur jokes before we had him, but we'd already chosen his name. I wouldn't laugh at someone if they told me they'd already chosen their baby's name! But now, everyone who hears it loves it and he's so cheeky he couldn't be anything else.

fred/freddie is so cute.

How about Alex?
We like it - not too populat atm, quite a 'strong' sounding name and difficult to shorten.

I had an Edward in March, often called Ed, so that is my fave boys name.

'popular'

peter, simon, andrew, paul, luke

DP says no to Arthur, and no to Regan.

'Charlie' got a wrinkled nose from DP.

I really can't think of any names i like apart from Tom.

Keep suggesting though- you might come up with something i hadn't considered.

Vaughn!

i love Tom but can't use it as ds has a similarish name

i have the same criteria as you ex i don't mind shortening. GOD its so much harder for boys, dd was so easy to name.

I think Hector is really cute!

Just dont go for Tom or Jack. Every boy baby I have met over the last year I swear is called Tom or Jack. 3 Tom's at my playgroup and a small group and Jacks everywhere

harry goes nice with george are you definately having a boy?

We have a Samuel, Stirling and Harold (harry)

Also like Gabriel, Sebastian, Finlay, Patrick (but maybve not with Peach LOL, plus a few B names that you don't want

Personally I think a name that can be shortened is advisable. Kids will do it, one way or t'other, with surname or just a stupid nickname- at least if you pick a shortening that you can live with (if not idolise) thats better than hearing them evermore addressed as something bizarre and incomprehensible whilst their mates simply retreat into Davey or Bas.

We have Lewis James.

I love the name Alexander for a boy.

Maxwell

forgot that

almost was DS2 (Dh went into this bizarre gladiator ' I want hime to be a Maximillain' thing so it was just Max as a middle name instead LOL)

I like Max aswell, Maximillian.

Goes well with DDs name.

not keen on the alfie archie bit
harry too pop but nice
noah my long tern number one but 10 a penny now

I had a few drinks outside the pub this evening so I can't sleep either.

Lordy knows what I'd do without MN, search porn sites or spend my rent money on poker probably
