Alfred - Alfie
OR
Leonard - Lenny
We have NO boys names we like. We already have 3 sons Owen Ellis and Liam and so this one if a boy is going to have to be stuck with a family name
Now ive ruled out James ( DH and FIL name) and Ive definately ruled out my grandads names which are Bernard and Nimbo !!!
So that leaves DH grandads and they are Afred and Leonard.
Neither really jump out at me so wondered what other people thought or if there were variations we hadnt thought of perhaps ?

I think alfie is cute, not a huge fan of Lenny but you could use Leo as a nn for Leonard.

^^My exact thoughts. I would pick leonard and nickname him Leo. Which is adorable!

We may be done, we may come back for one more sway. Time will tell. At the moment, we are very content with our family!

I would hate to be called Alfie as an adult. Leo is much better and he never has to use his real name.
If you think they are both awful find another name!!

Alfie was my grandmothers nickname, I have no idea why because her name was Kathleen but everyone called her Alfie. Haha!

Our family is now complete - no more babies for us. We didn't get our girl but I wouldn't trade my boys for the world, so in love.

I love Alfred; I think it's a great name. I think the name Alfred Leonard would be very handsome.

Leonard is the name I'm fighting for, I love it. I'm trying very hard to convince my DH to come around to it, I don't think it's awful at all. I like the nickname 'Lenny', I think it's cute.
