So I am 40 weeks and a day, could have this baby any day now, and this whole pregnancy my hubs has not offered any serious name options. I made a list and from there we had pretty much decided on [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] for this baby. But tonight he literally made his first serious suggestion - [name_m]Graham[/name_m]. It’s a name I had never considered, but I don’t dislike it. I don’t love love love it, but then again there isn’t a name this time around that I completely love anyway. This is our third boy, big bros are [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_m]Julian[/name_m]. Thoughts on [name_m]Graham[/name_m] with this sibset?? Cause I don’t know what to think at this point!
ETA: my kids call one of their grandmothers “Grammy”, so not sure of it would be weird naming a child Graham?
I much prefer [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] to [name_m]Graham[/name_m]. Plus, I think [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] is a nicer fit with your other boys. [name_m]Graham[/name_m] is a little old fashioned.
I love both [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] and [name_m]Graham[/name_m], and I think they both go really well with both [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_m]Julian[/name_m]! I tend to prefer [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] in general, but here I’m leaning toward [name_m]Graham[/name_m], and I’m not sure why. He is a really handsome and refreshing choice. Would you keep [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] as the middle name regardless?
[name_m]Graham[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] sounds good, but I think [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] is great! [name_m]Graham[/name_m] isn’t bad though.
I like both names. I think [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] may fit better with [name_u]Owen[/name_u] and [name_m]Julian[/name_m]. It feels a little spunkier while [name_m]Graham[/name_m] feels soft and safe.
Both are great choices - no harm in going in with both and meeting your little guy.
I much prefer [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] - what a great name! [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] goes beautifully with your other sons’ names. I feel [name_m]Graham[/name_m] is dated, a different style, and just doesn’t fit as well.
So after i posted this last night I realized that it may be weird to use [name_m]Graham[/name_m] as the boys call one of their grandmothers “Grammy”. Our family is big on cutesy pet names around the house so I know big bros would end up calling baby “grahammy” at some point!
Not sure if we would keep [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] as middle of we went with [name_m]Graham[/name_m]! Another middle name option we had is [name_m]Henry[/name_m].
I personally prefer [name_m]Hugo[/name_m]. However, both do go great with your other two boys. It may be a wait and see what he looks more like when he makes his arrival.
I think both work with your sibset, but if you think the confusion between [name_m]Graham[/name_m] and Grammy would be too much, maybe stick with [name_m]Hugo[/name_m]? I’m kinda curious what made your husband suggest it at this point? Could always just wait and see which one fits him better.
I have no idea what made him make a suggestion at this point, lol! I was like, seriously?? He said he just thought of it. He has said all along that there hasn’t been any names that he really likes (that I haven’t suggested).
