Recommendations for boy's name

obvious when you put it like that

I think you should call him after the previous poster (assuming the Mark bit is his name) which would mean calling him after his dad? A fine name indeed.
Regards Mark😁😁

Why not follow the family name and call him mark1234567891?  You can't break that long line of Marks.

I hate the idea that teachers are judging kids based on their names. ☹️

Everyone subconsciously judges people on their names. I bet you'd be surprised to hear a high court judge called Tracey.   😄

My SIL particularly chose one  syllabile  names that couldn't be shortened. Everybody added 'y' on to the end of the names.

My son's name is Ben and some people call him Benjamin or (horrors!) Benjy, especially when he was young.  However not many people do it these days as he just has always corrected them EVERY time they do it.  Similar to me, who has a three syllable name and always correct people if they don't call me by it.

Thanks for all of the replies and suggestions everyone. We've chosen Oscar as the name for our second born.

Surely with this being MSE it should be Martin 😉

Did you consider Norman? Normans are cool in a crisis, tough but compassionate, wise and to be admired. Normans know where its at.

Oscar is a lovely choice 😊
