Roderick?
Ling?
Congratulations .
Congrats, Jim!
In the same boat, some good suggestions.
Did you hear about the fireman who married a Spanish woman? They had two boys, José and Hose B
Fanny is very popular hear in Sweden . oh right a boy. Thor or Love
Just been through this myself. The shortlist included Seth, Felix, Thomas, Caleb and the wife liked Abel but that wasn’t happening. We went with Zachary (zach) in the end.
How about Galactus?
Or Eric?
Doesnt really really fit the 'roots' criteria but some family friends have 3 boys with awesome (IMO) names.
Raphael (spelling?!? - think artist / hero turtle) - Raph
Ezekiel - Zeek
Zephania (spelling again?!?) - Zeph
We went to the other extreme, so short you can't shorten it! Eli
edit: missed some letters on a couple of words. Fat fingers!

Awaits with interest suggestions from DezB!
Hmm, I think I know what you mean...
All I can say is JeffW's suggestion is a very poor one 😉
I reckon - Sidney
Tyberius K Wacknbacker
Ábhainn, a good Irish name, sort of pronounced as 'Owen' but confuses most people
just caught up on this thread, some genuine lols, thanks guys.
Several of you mentioned a few of our top picks so far.. the front runner being Lochlan, for which we would use Lochie, or Lucky (cause this is a one hella lucky conception).
Since arriving in the states this week we've found ourselves adding Woody to the top of the list, which has recently been demoted by... Arlo.
How does Arlo fit into the modern hive mind?
I love it. Typically, it doesn't fit our initial criteria, but it is apparently of Anglo Saxon origin so he should fit in nicely to President Farrages society when he grows up.
Wilbur
Jordi - a Spanish or Catalan George alternative
Arlo's nice.
You can always have an Alice later for the full set.
Luas is a nice Irish boys name that or Cáis, both easy to pronounce but unusual in UK
Edward. Can be shortened to Ted, Ed, Eddie, Eddie-baby.
I worked with a guy called Leo (Leofric), in the same office there was a Kitchener
at the moment I’ve got a Norwegian guy called Roar working for me
(Lachlan is a very popular name amongst bogans in Australia FYI - was there any sign of a mullet in that scan picture?)
I quite like classical names - my next cat will definitely be a Hector. Also a good name for elderly highland gentlemen.
Surely Oedipus would be a better classical name for a cat!
As one blessed with a mIs spelled, once-fashionable name, all I can say is something easy to spell and pronounce, something you are happy with the shortening (if any), and something that passes the Lidl/Tesco/Waitrose test (delete as appropriate).
Daren
rhymes with Karen, not Darren, or Daron or Darrin or....
I'm easy to find on the internet, but spend my life saying “one R”.
Youve been warned.
Rothmans, obvs
