    Smile Would love some good suggestions for BOYS!

    Well, the 20 week scan showed pretty clearly that this new bean is a boy! You'd think that after 4 girls, we'd have a long list of unused boy names just waiting, but I just don't know what to pick now!

    DH loves Seth, and I like it, just not sure if I LOVE it.
    I love Owen. DH thinks it sounds wimpy.
    Baby's middle name will be William.

    We would like something not TOO common, but not weird. Maybe a little old fashioned. Biblical, maybe? European, possibly? For those who like to "picture" the baby, he will very likely be blond haired, blue eyed, fair skinned, and built like a Dutchman. Good sturdy little lad. Oh, and names that end in "er" are out - doesn't work well with our last name.

    congrats on number 5! i am also pregnant with no.5 (31 weeks) and i dont meet many others who are too

    i have three boys and one girl and don't know what im having this time.
    We went for bible names with our boys and flowers for the girls for some weird reason.

    Our boys are ELI CALEB and AMOS and if its another boy we will probably go for NOAH

    i also like MOSES IMRE ULEE OMAR ISHMAEL ODIN SAMSON SOLOMON ZEKE

    How exciting choosing a boys name!!! I think Seth or Owen sound great

    My DS's names are Joel & Kieran which of course I love the sound of, so thought I'd suggest them LOL!

    I also love the names Kai and Byron. What about Christian?

    Have fun deciding!!

    I love Seth too, and Owen is one of my favourite man's names (bit biased - it's my dad's name and he is the kindest, most beautiful person I know).

    How about Cameron?
    Cole?
    Nate?

    OK, here are the ones that appeal to me from the suggestions so far, and THANK YOU to all the ladies who have replied! It's so nice to have suggestions and feedback!

    Reuben
    CALEB
    NOAH
    Levi
    Isaiah
    Isaac
    Benjamin

    I wonder if I should push a little harder for DH to consider Owen. He might come around to it..... And maybe I'll have to think a little harder about Seth. I know he's loved that name for a LONG time.

    Please keep the suggestions coming!
