Right, 'Grandad' names please!

[maybebaby]

I know we're still very early but I've been thinking of names since ds was born! I love his name, and am struggling to come up with one I like as much.

I like old fashioned names that are classic but not popular. OH likes similar names but doesn't like James or John (or similar) because he thinks they're 'boring'.

So far I've come up with:

Not worrying too much about girls' names at the mo because we have quite similar tastes for girls names and chose loads we loved last time.

Any suggestions please? Thank you!

There''s a little boy on young mum's mansion called Ernie which I quite like.

Also... The name Alfie is very popular at the moment and this was my choice for a boy, but I was thinking about Alfred, then he could have Alfie, Alf, Fred, Freddy for short.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

I love Seth but the surname is [Removed personal information]so not sure about an 'S' name either. I had a tortoise called Sebastian when I was younger

Ernie's quite cool, I like Frank, Gordon & Bertie too. William too, could be shortened to Billy.

DS's second middle name is so can't use that either.

I love Bobby but OH had a dog with that name so won't consider it

I'm really liking Ernie now actually... Damn it, why do I like so many boy's names but when it comes to girls names I'm stuck

Morris would go well with Austin

Can be spelt both ways, i was thinking from the british classic car stance!

If it's Grandad names you want... My grandad is called Ray by the way

I think Morris is a good idea as was it not you when you were preg with Austin that wanted "car" style names?!?!

 

[maybebaby]

That was someone else but I remember the thread. We could go with Morgan for the same reasons...

 

[Misslarue]

My grandads:

Lawrence (or laurie)
Harry

I like Bertie, its cute!
