This will likely be our last babe and we don\u2019t know if it\u2019s a boy or a girl. My gut says boy.<br \/>\nOur surname is Menegon (husbands family is from northern Italy).<\/p>\n<p>We both like classic names, and don\u2019t mind nicknames. Well, I say that but it\u2019s extremely difficult to get husband on board with any type of theme or genre. I\u2019m very lucky we have Hazel and Freddie who I think go perfectly together. Baby boy names that appeal to me are<\/p>\n<p>Albert (Bertie)<br \/>\nHerbert (Herb or Bertie)<br \/>\nWinston (Win, Winnie)<br \/>\nWalter (Walt)<br \/>\nAbraham (Abe)<br \/>\nRoman<br \/>\nMonty<\/p>\n<p>Middle name likely to be from this list also as we don\u2019t have any family names we wish to use<\/p>\n<p>Girls short list is<br \/>\nOlive Maude \/ Maude Olive<br \/>\nWinslow<br \/>\nWinter<br \/>\nMabel<\/p>\n<p>Again, girl middle names are open for discussion.<\/p>\n<p>I would love to use Olive in there somewhere as it was my grandmothers name, and after a rather unfortunate case of \u2018name stealing\u2019 just before Hazel was born I feel ready to use it again. I do like old fashioned, vintage and slightly out of the ordinary names. Also wouldn\u2019t mind some alliteration this time around.<\/p>\n<p>My husband has a habit of strongly rejecting names (ie Frederick) and then completely forgetting and coming on board in the delivery room, so I feel as though his preliminary opinions aren\u2019t worth too much. We both have plain strong first names.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you so much for your time<\/p>\n<p>Jaydee<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I won&#8217;t linger on this one since we are abruptly out of time (welcome, baby!), but a few quick things:<\/p>\n<p>Since this is likely your last baby, and you were hoping to honor your grandmother Olive, I wonder if you would like to put Oliver in there somewhere, either as first or middle? (If as a middle, I would probably avoid initials DOM, MOM, VOM, and I would have to consider how I felt about COM, NOM.)<\/p>\n<p>My own favorites from your list are Albert, Winston, and Walter.<\/p>\n<p>Other names I might consider with a Hazel and a Frederick:<\/p>\n<p>Alistair<br \/>\nArthur<br \/>\nBarnaby<br \/>\nCharles<br \/>\nEdmund<br \/>\nEdward<br \/>\nElliot<br \/>\nGeorge<br \/>\nGilbert<br \/>\nHarvey<br \/>\nHoward<br \/>\nJohn<br \/>\nKarl<br \/>\nLaurence<br \/>\nLouis<br \/>\nMiles<br \/>\nPaul<br \/>\nRobert<br \/>\nRussell<br \/>\nStanley<br \/>\nVincent<br \/>\nWarren<br \/>\nWesley<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Name update:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Hi Swistle,<\/p>\n<p>Firstly thank you so much for posting in my time of need! Baby boy is doing so well and is completely off breathing support. With any luck in the next couple of weeks he will take to breast \/ bottle feeding and we can make our way home from hospital as a family of 5!<\/p>\n<p>I truly appreciated all of your suggestions. I couldn\u2019t commit to Oliver whilst I still had a .1% chance of #4 (although I know I said 3 was our number haha) <\/p>\n<p>Introducing, with love, our little fighter Walter Albert, adored little brother to Hazel Mae and Frederick Joseph <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.swistle.com\/babynames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_9095.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.swistle.com\/babynames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_9095.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.swistle.com\/babynames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_9095-113x150.jpeg 113w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thank you very much again,<\/p>\n<p>Jaydee and Grant xx <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Swistle, Sorry to be a pest but baby boy was born extremely unexpectedly at 33 weeks yesterday!
