    OK HELP I know I know I never like anything though LOL

    Ok, so how far pg am I? 33 weeks I think.. The only name DH & I both sort of like is Ronan. But I just don't think its the right name. I like it but it just doesn't feel like its the name KWIM?

    DH has joked about Warren, seems baby will be born near easter & in the year of the rabbit.. But I think it is just a joke name.

    So you should all know the drill.. Celtic feel, goes well with Evan, Glenn, Isla & Iain. Suits surname F U LL E R & isn't on the top 100 list etc etc. Something nice but not common/popular but not weird. OH & not a "baby" name, Something that will sit nicely on my little man when he is a big man.

    Thanks

    eta - Boys names already in the family so we wont use.

    My DS2's name is Kieran, so I thought I'd throw it out there .

    It is a Celtic name that means Dark Skinned which is bizarre, because DS2 has beautiful dark skin while my other two are much fairer.

    Similar to Ronan, but with a twist?

    Hmm... I like unusual names, how about:

    Ailean (pronounced E-lun) means "rock" or "nobel" - Gaelic
    Nevin means "saint" - Gaelic
    Finlay means "white warrior" - Gaelic
    Lorne - scottish place name
    Torquil (pronounced Tor-call) means Thor's helmet

    Some different suggestions there, thanks



    Owen - Kinda too close to Evan??
    Rhys - This one always comes up on our list but it feels like a naughty boys name (Malcolm in the Middle I think LOL)
    Kynan - Ki - nan?
    Vaughan - I like this one but dh doesn't.
    Niven - How do you say it?
    Giles - hmmmm does it suit the others? Is it too old a name on a baby/child?
    Ailean (pronounced E-lun) means "rock" or "nobel" - Gaelic - E-lun or E-loon?
    Nevin means "saint" - Gaelic
    Lorne - scottish place name - mmmm another maybe, will suggest to DH
    Torquil (pronounced Tor-call) means Thor's helmet - Not sure I like the sound of it in my head but DH would love the meaning.
    Oran - Makes me think of Orson of Desperate housewives.. But I like I like Orson anyway, will have to look up the meaning etc
    Tadhg - Tige...? Like Tiggy?


    Those are all the ones I will have a second thought on the others I didn't comment on I don't like, but thanks .

    Friends in Scotland have a son Niven, and they say as per this

    Niven \n(i)-ven\ as a boy's name is a variant of Nevin
