Another one for Tristan but im bias because i married one you may find your baby finds his own name my youngest came home from the hospital a Benjamin but it just didn't seem right on him the right name for him came to me 3 days later

Ellis would be my preference. I don't like Jack anyway, it's way too popular now, DS has two in his class (albeit they are Jac not Jack), and every other person seems to be giving their child that name, and Harry is going the same way (DS has a Harri in his class). I also think Jack Hilton doesn't really go together (not the way I say it anyway!! )

Not keen on Tristan and really don't like Alfie, but don't tell my best friend because that's her little boy's name :D.

I had a baby boy a few months ago and called him Aaron. Other names I liked Aidan, Charlie, Oscar, Max and Milo.

Max is a great name, it's really masculine - but not Maximilian. Although it means "the greatest", it reminds me of the Holy Roman Emperor. Not that there's anything wrong with that of course, but I think it could be a bit of a burden in the playground. Alex(ander) is another favourite.

Jack is in the top ten as well. I know a Tristram, not a Tristran though. Max and Oscar are in the top ten as well. We are struggling with boys names too!

Haha ikkle. I am convinced its a boy! 99%. My other half's family is about 15 boys and one girl, so I think they have strong male genes!

I was convinced all the way through that I was having a boy - I had a 4d scan and everyone said that the pics look like my DS, when I was at the end I was stopped by that many people in asda etc asking when I was due and did I know what I was having, when I said no, they would say "its a boy, definitely, can tell by the way you are carrying"!!

I had exactly the same type of pregnancy with both and then 8 days ago gave birth to a aby girl!! The look on my face was a picture - i was absolutely amazed. I never ever thought i was having a little princess - I had no morning sickness (which apparently you get bad with a girl). I now have the pleasure of returning or selling all my boys clothes I had bought as I was that convinced it was a boy.

So moral of the story is, dont be too sure lol.

Re the names, I love Ellie our boy was going to be called Archie James.

Hello

I had a baby boy 5 wks ago, we called him Aiden. I also liked Noah, Ethan, Dylan and Connor but it was hard to agree with OH and the only one we both liked was Aiden - glad we picked it now though.

Go with whatever name you like best, you will know if it doesnt suit him when he is born...assuming its definately a him?!

Personally I like Max and Ellis the best. I know a Tristan, I think its becoming more popular. I know an Alfie, and he is a little bit naughty, must be that name eh?!

I found it hard because I was a nursery nurse a couple of years ago so I always related names to children I used to look after.

Let us know what you pick!

I really like Ellis too - I couldn't have that if I had a boy as it is my cousins surname and I'd find that a bit weird!
