    Boys Names, suggestions/opinions PLEASE!!!

    ok found out on Thurs we are expecing blue bundle number two. one dilemma, now we have to find a name! i love william but our surname starts with wi.....
    i love DS's name, C.o.n.n.o.r, and had it as a name i wanted to use for several years, he has the same dutch middle name as the previous 4 generations of first sons on DH side.
    this time bubs will prob have bryan as a middle name (from my dads side of the family) and the first names i have on my like but not love list are:

    aidan
    callum
    cai (DH hates)
    cian (DH hates)
    eamon
    finn
    flynn
    isaac
    jacob (but apparently quite high in popularity, bloody twilight!!)
    james
    joshua
    lachlan (maybe spelt laughlin)
    leigh
    liam (my fave at the moment)
    louis (DH isnt keen)
    oliver

    names that are out (family already used them)
    riley
    thomas
    michael
    benjamin
    patrick

    so you can probably see the trend in our names, any suggestions/opinions on these ones or others that are in the same vein? DH doesnt like names that are too out there or too oldie worldie.

    Big big fan of Aidan. My DS is Aiden and if this baby is a boy I really want Connor (to me they just go together so well). Finn and Oliver are also on my list.

    Congrats on another boy! I love Liam from your list. I also like Aidan and Oliver. Isaac and Jacob were on my boys list, but I think the others go really well with Connor.

    Joshua Bryan Wi.... This sounded the best in my head! lol

    I love Eamon, but maybe Eamon Bryan is a bit too much?

    Good luck, we had a hopeless time choosing names second time round, I sympathise.

    From your list I like Liam and Louis the most

    My first is named Peter - it's not out there but I don't know any other little boys named Peter and we always get lovely positive comments on his name.
