  • Ellis is supposed to be a form of Elias. I guess Elise is the female version? I've never heard of a girl called ellis

    Aw thats a shame, its a cute name! :) I didnt think my son looked like an 'anyrhing' so we just went with our favourite but now hes older I think he looks like a charlie because he has such a cheeky wee face.

    He does suit his name though :)

    Is that Welsh? :p (sorry I'm in a cheeky mood tonight!)

    I like Jack best with your surname.

    Are you going to find out what sex the baby is? I was positive I was having a boy both times. I am the only girl out of 18 cousins and my husband doesn't have any female cousins at all. Also my brothers all have boys. I was so convinced with my first I bought all boys things, and we had chosen the name Alfie. I was delighted to have a daughter. The second time I was equally sure and equally wrong!!

    He didn't get his name for ablout 2 weeks, whereas his twin brother was always going to be Louis as soon as we knew they were two boys :o

  • No to Harry and Alfie.

    Lots of Harry's due to Harry Potter and lots of little Alfies around here who always seem to be the children in trouble.

    I voted for Jack as Jack Hilton sounds good - it has a pleasant ring to it and John will go with any number of middles names, if you are considering further names.

    I think Ellis and Tristan sound a bit... ethereal, sorry. Alfred is a bit too old-fashioned for my taste - perfect when he's an old man but I suppose name fashions go in cycles so maybe "old" is the new "new". Henry is a good, solid name but I don't like the combination of Harry Hilton unless you're going to break it up with one or two middle names.

    Anyway, as someone else has said, you may change your mind when baby arrives! I was very fixed on a particular couple of names for my eldest but towards the end of pregnancy felt they were just too "cold" for her. When he's born you may think he suits something else entirely!

    Love the name Tristan, but not sure it goes with Hilton. Not keen on the rest, mainly for popularity reasons.

    My favourite name out of those is Jack but with the surname Hilton, I prefer Alfie.
