    Whats your favourite?

    So I found out that I'm expecting a little boy (had it all on show during urgent scan last week) and I'm completely stuck on names. I had plenty of girls chosen but very few boys names, so would love some input and help!

    My DD has 2 middle names (not my choice) and 1 is one of my middle names (which is also my mums) and the other is her paternal grandmothers name. This baby I would like to just have 1 middle name.

    The few names I have so far are:

    Jacob Harrison
    Jacob Michael
    Jacob Anderson
    Jacob Louis (Louis is a family name which my mum really wants me to use)
    Jacob Seth (my mums choice)

    I also like the name Caleb but cant think of middle names.

    The forbidden names are
    Matthew, Martin, James, Lucas, Cooper, Peter, Robert, Riley, Max, Andrew, Scott, David

    So please ladies, can you help! I have ages to think about it but with DD her name was chosen pretty much instantly when we found out (and its from a song we loved)

    ETA - I should also add Jacob is not from watching Twilight or what ever it is - I have never seen it before in my life and had Jacob chosen since DD was a jellybean!

    I initially leant towards Jacob Michael (but given that's the fathers name and he wished us dead I'm dubious about using it)

    Oh I like Caleb Zane! Definitely a tad different!

    I'm leaning towards my last name but I guess we will see whether my ex steps up!

    Love Jacob and Harrison but may be a wee bit biased.

    Jacob Louis is cute as well and I like that too.

    Jacob is a great strong name. (I also had NO connection to twilight and have no idea what its all about)

    I like Jacob Michael or Jacob Harrison.

    I think you could use any of those middle names with Caleb too.

    ETA replied without reading the responses. After seeing your follow up comment I would scrap Jacob Michael altogether. So my pick is Jacob Harrison.

    My pick is Jacob Louis (I'm a bit biased cos I have a Lewis)

    I didnt think of the twilight connection either. I think Jacob is a really nice name, and I quite like Jake for a NN

    I like jake too! Louis is my grandfathers name and my mums middle name, one of mine, and one of DD's is Louise (taken from him iykwim)

    I think my mum would be ecstatic if I chose Louis (but then she also says it Louie like Louie the fly!)
