As I sit and wait for this kid to decide to emerge, we would love some help on our final list! What’s your favorite of our options?

[name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] (or [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]? I think I prefer [name_u]Theo[/name_u]–which do you like better?)
[name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_m]Asher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]

Thanks in advance! :slight_smile:

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_m]Asher[/name_m]!!

3

I love [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u], but I think there may be an actor with this name. I think [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] is absolutely adorable as well. I would go with [name_m]Oliver[/name_m].

4

I like [name_u]Theo[/name_u], but [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] (unfortunately!) just reminds me of the Divergent actor. I love [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Asher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u], and even [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u], though! (I’m usually not keen on [name_m]Oliver[/name_m], but something about [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] is so classic and dapper. I like him a lot. Or maybe it’s just because it’s my great-grandfather’s name in reverse. ;)) If you did [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u], I think that’d get my vote (or even [name_m]Theophilus[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]–I’m a huge [name_m]Theophilus[/name_m] fan!), followed by [name_m]Asher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u], then [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]. I really love them all, though!

5

[name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] is my favorite. I wouldn’t worry about the actor unless [name_u]James[/name_u] is your surname.

6

I love [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]. I also love [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u], but personally I prefer using the more formal [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] with the nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u]. Either is a fabulous choice though!

7

[name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u]

8

Tough, tough one! I’ll give you my top 3- [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Asher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] & [name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] in that order :slight_smile: Congratulations!

9

I’d say my top 2 are [name_m]Asher[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]. I like [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u], but he is an incredibly famous actor, so I’d steer clear of that name.

10

I think you can’t go wrong with any of them! I like [name_m]Milo[/name_m] & [name_m]Asher[/name_m] best, as [name_u]Theo[/name_u] is shooting up the charts and [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] reminds me of the actor. Not a huge fan of [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] and [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] is ok, but so popular!

11

I like [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] nn [name_u]Theo[/name_u]!

12

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_u]Theo[/name_u] and [name_m]Frederick[/name_m].

13
  1. [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]
  2. [name_m]Asher[/name_m]
  3. [name_m]Frederick[/name_m]
14

I love all your options but my favourites (although it is close) in order are:

[name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]
[name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] ([name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] flows slightly better but if you prefer [name_u]Theo[/name_u] I think that should be your choice, also as [name_u]James[/name_u] is the middle name I don’t think the association with the actor is anything to worry about)
[name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]

Personally I don’t think that you can go wrong with any of your choices.

15

love [name_m]Asher[/name_m], [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and [name_m]Frederick[/name_m]!

16

I like [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]!

17

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_m]Milo[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u]!! Great options :slight_smile:

18

Thank you! We’re grateful for the input :slight_smile:

19

Update: We are so happy to welcome little [name_u]Theo[/name_u] [name_u]James[/name_u] into the world, ten days after his due date! His name suits him perfectly :slight_smile: Thank you to all who shared opinions to help us choose!

you could totally do theo james - no one would ever associate it with the actor anyway since james isn’t your last name…i prefer theo over theodore - but i like nickname names :slight_smile: good luck :slight_smile:
