British Boy Names?

[name]Hi[/name] All -

I posted this on the Boy Names board but thought I’d repost here as well (hope that’s OK, just joined so don’t know all the rules!) :smiley:

We’re having our first child in [name]March[/name] and my husband and I can’t seem to agree on any names. We live in the U.S. but Dad is British and I’d like to pick a name that reflects his British heritage. My husband loves [name]Rupert[/name], [name]Hugo[/name], and [name]Sebastian[/name] but I can’t seem to get on board.

I love [name]Oliver[/name] but it’s off the table because our close friends used that name. My husband doesn’t like [name]Alastair[/name], but other names he likes that I’m warmer to are [name]Henry[/name] and [name]Theodore[/name] (nn [name]Theo[/name]).

Ideally we’d like something with British flavor and unique - not too popular but not so unique as to be really “out-there”. Any other suggestions for British baby boy names?

Thanks!

[name]Jasper[/name] was the first name that popped into my head, followed by [name]Caspian[/name]. There’s many blog posts about British names, and you can always try looking in the [name]London[/name] Telegraph Birth Announcements if you need inspiration. :smiley: Congratz on your first baby!
