  • Thanks for all your input guys, I think I am winning the battle with the OH as I personally prefer Benjamin out of that list...

    I am seriously hoping its a girl this time though, because i love the girls name we have finally settled on (Amelia).

    I like all of those to be honest, nice to see some lovely traditional names there. Also if you are having a middle name then you might want to rhyme it off with that, and your surname, also check no funny initials, if that might bother you/son.

    All the best.

    Hi
    I voted Joseph. My son is Joe and I really love the name it suits him x
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Me too! If we had of had a boy he would have been Daniel, well I love the name James but DH said he would name his child James James - spoil sport :rotfl:

    All lovely names!

    I think Joshua is my least favourite, as I'm not too keen on the name Josh, which it will probably get shortened to!

    I voted William, but Benjamin was a close second
    I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

    that poor child is going to spend her entire life spelling her name....

    I agree, unusual spellings of names are nice, but people will never spell them right.

    Out of that list I like Joshua. We were going to call 1st DD Daniel if she was a boy, or Matthew.

    I like all of these names except for Ben, but only in their shortened forms.
