But stick with the name you love in the end. People will still be surprised but you get to keep the name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484510 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 14:15:02 +0000 sslm 2484510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: haha! We probably will stick with it. My DH really doesn't want to change it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484476 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 13:52:58 +0000 psw27 2484476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you love it, keep it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484383 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 12:33:32 +0000 knittylady 2484383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Clark? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484345 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 12:06:11 +0000 fussygal 2484345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's such a great name! Maybe you could keep the middle name a surprise still?</p> <p>For others what about Cormick or Declan? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484337 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 12:02:29 +0000 Autumnmama79 2484337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: I had to read DH the riot act the other night when we were discussing names - I don't want it shared early either!!</p> <p>Asher is the only similar name that comes to mind. But I think if you love Alistair, stick with it. This telling family early business will be nothing but a memory once baby boy is here :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484329 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 11:59:22 +0000 Charm54 2484329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If we had a boy he was going to be Lachlan. I'm still a bit sad we will (probably) never get to use the name ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484325 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 11:58:20 +0000 agold 2484325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Aandmklover: I love Seamus , too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484313 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 11:50:45 +0000 Aandmklover 2484313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seamus?

Well, anyone I told in advance what the name was completely forgot. I bet if you don't mention it, no one will remember. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484182 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 09:52:05 +0000 jedeve 2484182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Archie? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484181 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 09:51:21 +0000 sslm 2484181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@delight: Thanks! I like Graeme but there's someone in our life with that name who we do not like haha, so it's out! </p> <p>@Eko: The thing is, people didn't even dislike it, I'm just sad we didn't keep it a surprise, like we did with my DD. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484109 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 08:47:11 +0000 Eko 2484109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ugh. I am convinced you will never find a name everyone likes. I say if you also like it, just keep it!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484101 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 08:41:19 +0000 delight 2484101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wait a second! I missed your gender announcement! Congrats! What about Graham or Graeme? I think it is an English name but is also associated with Scotland and Ireland. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484054 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 08:00:59 +0000 Truth Bombs 2484054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lachlan? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484050 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 07:42:16 +0000 lamariniere 2484050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Arthur? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boy-names-4#post-2484048 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 07:34:36 +0000 sslm 2484048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So we are fairly set on Alastair... however we shared with family and now I am bummed. I would've preferred to keep it a surprise, for some reason.</p> <p>Anyway, my husband is very attached to Alastair... can anyone recommend names with a similar flavor?? Bonus points if they are Scottish or Irish in origin :) </p>
