First post ever

Hello there,
I would just like to preface my post by saying that I am not currently pregnant or even trying to get pregnant, but just kind of obsessed with talking about names with my husband (who wants to start trying) because I like the idea of having the name already decided upon in advance for some reason! We already have a 14 month old called Henry John.

Its been bothering me because lately people keep saying "Oh! I know sooooooooo many boys called Henry". I don't want my son to have a "weird" name but I don't want to be "boring" either.

I feel CERTAIN that I would have a boy next time around. We like conservative, English, regal, traditional names (as you can tell, from Henry John). If we had a girl we'd probably call her Sarah Victoria.

I had my heart set on George but Kate & William went and took that, didn't they!?!

So now I'm settled on Arthur but hubby thinks its a little too "out there". Thoughts?

And I'm STUCK for middle names that go with it! I would LOVE some suggestions!!

Arthur sounds perfect for you - traditional but not common. It's definitely not "out there"
