Mum to two boys!! :O
We have just found out that our #3 is another beautiful boy. So while we were totally sorted for girls' names we now need to find another boy's name having already used the two we like! Our children are Nate (Nathanael) Joel and Leo Carter (family name). The middle name will be a family name (surnamey) starting with L and our surname starts with C and sounds Italian. I don't want any names that rhyme with sibling names. We have a name that is a frontrunner at the moment which we both like but are open to other suggestions! Hit me!!

I'd love to help you, but we struggle enough with boys names

I thought of Oliver first up. I think it's nice with your other names. Archie would be nice - maybe short for Archer?

Thanks Lucky Ducky. I like both those names but they've both been used in the last year by very close friends!

Tricky! I struggled with my second daughter's name because I'd used my favourites with our first daughter, so I can sympathise. Here are some I like: Luke or Lucas Mitchell Declan Thomas James Liam Archie Alistair Andrew/Andy Bryce Theodore (Ted) Henry Spencer Best wishes on baby #3!
