    Red face Need help with boys names

    I don't usually post about names but I'm getting desperate!

    We do not know if Boo is a pink or blue bundle. We have two girls names picked that we are happy with but are really struggling with boys names!!

    Looking for some suggestions...our 'criteria' would be not too popular (so no Coopers, Rileys, Jacks etc) and not too modern either (like Jett or Diesel or anything like that - wouldn't go with our other children's names).

    We'd like something strong, more traditional but not too boring.

    Joel? Kieran? LOL! Don't ask me, I find boy's names soooo hard! I like the name you were tossing around recently though, is your DH not convinced yet?

    I hope you find one you love soon

    P.S I can't believe you're full-term already

    We are planning the next one and the boys name we've picked is Chad Thomas or Thomas Chad. You can steal it if you like

    Trish - Yep, DH is well convinced on that one, it's me that's not!! I tend to be indecisive till the birth anyway. Would just like a few options iykwim? (thanks for not posting the name ) I actually love Kieran...I can't remember if I ended up suggesting it to DH or not

    Nate is cool but our friends have a Nathaniel who they call Nate so that's out - we are all very close and our families spend lots of time together.

    Love Thomas too but it's my Dad's name and DH wouldn't let me use it for a first name so it's DS's middle name.

    Thanks for the suggestions, nothing grabbing me so far but keep them coming please!

    We called our DS Jonah, it means the bringer of peace, its symbol is the dove.

    DP and I are still struggling with boys names as well! We have a list of possibilities but nothing really 'grabs' either of enough to make a final decision. We are hoping once bub is born one of the names will hopefully suit perfectly (hoping!)

    Oooh, I love Jonah!! And it's meaning.

    I don't think DH will go for it but I might put it on my list - thanks!!
