    Good names for baby boys?

    I'm sat here awaiting the arrival of my second grandchild...a boy to my second daughter.

    Mother to be is struggling for a name,for months it was going to be Theo but she's started to waver.

    I picked my daughter's name and she's always liked being called Holly so I've been throwing my favourite options at her.

    I like short names and I'm not really a traditionalist so I'm not really into names like William,Henry and all them sort.

    I actually like names like Bo and Max and she quite likes Bo but she's thinking ahead to when he's a ****ager and the p I s s taking starts and doesn't think B O is the greatest idea:-)

    A friend of mine has a grandson called Dexter and she likes that especially when adding his grandads name of John which was also my dad's name and he was her favourite grandad so she thinks "DJ" or Dex will be cool name when he gets to ****age years.

    Anybody got any unusual suggestions or good names from their family.

    I've already had to warn his dad that Junior and Enzo are probably not the best but then again we did have Enzo Maresca.

    Saido is a definite NO!!

    Something short is good. Also not one of the fly by night names that are popular for a short time but a few years down the line will be abused.
    The choice of course has to be with the parents. Greg, Matt, Dan, Mick, Dave, Jon all have stood the test of time and are good solid names.
    Get her to spell it correctly though. Don't want Krys, Mik, Dezzy, etc.
    I would strongly advise against Bubba. About time Reginald made a comeback, she could set a trend with that.
    My dad was William Henry. There is a pub in Weymouth called William Henry as well.

    leading up to the birth of my grandson in april last year and knowing my daughter was having a boy the name juggling was well under way and the two strong candidates were Hugo and Griff or Gryff,he very nearly got Griff which I was sold on but the other granddad to be (his first grandchild like myself) was leaning towards Hugo and events took a nasty turn just before xmas 15 when he suddenly took ill and was hospitalised,unfortunatley he died shortly after before the birth so Hugo was chosen over Griff as a nod to him
    He is Hugo it suits him but I think as shes planning on another baby next year and if its a boy Gryff will be a top contender for sure
