This is my FINAL poll. I promise! 😳

Hello again,

I apologise for being back again so quickly :flushed:

Last time I started a poll to get some guidance as to which spelling you all preferred:
[name_m]Alistair[/name_m] or [name_m]Alastair[/name_m]. I also said that it was my FINAL post and that it would help me decide out of the spellings once and for all…

But now there’s a new name I’m loving - [name_m]Rupert[/name_m]. And with all of your lovely feedback about how this would be a great sibling name with big brother [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] it’s got me seriously considering it.

So, here is my final poll!!!

Thank you once more. Firstborns are so much easier to name!

Thank you for your vote! :hugs:

[name_m]Just[/name_m] edited my post and I think the poll’s up and running now :+1:t4:

Love [name_m]Rupert[/name_m]!!

Maybe [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Alistair[/name_m]/Alastair as a first middle combo? I think it sounds great.

Thank you for voting and for kindly posting feedback (again!) I also think the combo [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Alistair[/name_m]/Alastair sounds fantastic :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I think both are lovely, but something about [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] and [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] makes the pairing seem more compatible.

Rupert [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] is gorgeous!

I think you might have found IT :blush:

You’ve been so hesitant on so many small points around [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] — the spelling, the pronunciation, the Scottishness — none of which is a dealbreaker or even close to it, but you just never sounded quite comfortable with it, although you love the name.

That, to me, makes it a perfect middle name choice. You still get to see and say it in all its handsomeness as much as you like, but those issues are greatly minimised.

[name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] sounds fantastic alongside [name_m]Edmund[/name_m], and I’m loving this crisper spelling next to [name_m]Rupert[/name_m].

Another vote for [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Alistair[/name_m]–it seems like the perfect way to incorporate both of your choices, and the perfect brother name for [name_m]Edmund[/name_m]!

I adore [name_m]Alastair[/name_m], but I think [name_m]Edmund[/name_m] and [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] are mean to be brothers! Wow, didn’t read the [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] suggestion, I agree it’s perfect!

Thank you!! Yes - I definitely had a lot of hesitations about [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] as a first name. So putting him in the middle is a wonderful compromise. I think we may have found THE name too :relieved::crossed_fingers:t4::crossed_fingers:t4:

Oh my :flushed: These poll results are making this decision so hard. It’s funny - even though I was leaning towards [name_m]Rupert[/name_m], I really wanted the poll to bring about results that were more one sided. But on a positive note, at least I know that either option would be lovely :blush:

I voted for for [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] for a couple of reasons; 1. It goes way better with [name_m]Edmund[/name_m], 2. [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] is ridiculously common where I live, and as such seems pretty boring.

Rupert [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] is really lovely though.
