My 6m old boy is called Gabriel.... Took us months to settle on that. Girls names are much easier.
You picked a girls name just for ease? You do know what his name will be shortened to his whole life don`t you?
Missing a couple of letters to be the girly version.

I refer you the honourable gentleman that is...

In fairness, I'd name for the man he became rather than assume he'll stay in primary school forever. What kind of a cissy can't get over having their name ripped into at school??

Additionally, EVERY single name will be adapted to make an insult at school. It's what schoolboys do.
I'm hoping he grows up to be a ballet dancer obvs....actually, ballet dancers are 'nails' and get to legitimately feel up some proper hotties.

In fact, currently he is routinely called "Bagel" as our 2yr girl (Florence) can't say Gabriel....I think that will stick forever actually. We have a long history in our family for people having stupid nicknames. You don't have to be mad to live here, but it helps......

MX-5 Heaton? (I'm sure we'll have had that, but couldn't be bothered reading 7 pages of names).

Or William. I like William.

Think about what you want him to be when he's older.

If you can imagine his name written on the side of a white van with ladders on the roof, don't do it

Out of the shadows, a tall figure appeared. He raised his hat and looked up at the mob thugs beating on his client. He tossed his cigarette into the gutter and with a few swift movements, they were on their backs with bloodied noses. "Well boys, this aint your patch now is it?" he said in a gruff voice. "Who, who are you Mister?" the fat one muttered. "Me, Heaton, Tom Heaton Private investigator and don't you boys forger it. You can tell your boss this aint his town no more..."

Yup a good old mans name is Tom biggrin

As he slid his hand inside the jeans, he could feel what he wanted, what he so desperately longed for. He started to become very aroused, they kissed, passionately. 'Stephen, I have to have you now', said Tom. biggrin

Well, my son's 15 so I don't know what's popular now. If it's everywhere, fair enough. My mum suggested Alistair and St John for my son. Unsurprisingly, we didn't use either. I quite liked Dominic, but apparently it's a bit Catholic.

My wife suggested Sebastian for our boy due in August, with a view to shortening to Bass (inspired by a character in Revolution for anyone who watches it)

Now I actually quite like that, but the character is a fking nutter so put me off a bit.

Our other current contender is Dillon or possibly Dylan.

We were totally set on our daughters name very early on, but boys seems harder.
