Name opinions for a boy!

Which name do you like best? We have a 3 syllable VERY English last name. DS 1 is Reid John. The middle name for this baby will most likely be Robert or George.

My issues -
Theodore is SO LONG compared to Reid
Henry is a little old man's name and Reid is more modern
Liam is "too Irish" according to my family members.

I love all of them! Our runner- up for my son's name was Theodore who would've been called Teddy. I think maybe Henry goes best though? Chat Icon

Sounds like you don't really like any of the names. Why settle? I'd keep thinking about names.

Liam is one of my favorite boy names, so that would be my vote.

I like the name Liam, I do NOT consider it an Irish name, (I am Irish) if anything I would consider it an English name more. Maybe Scottish/Welsh.

I love all 3- I guess instead of "issues" I could've used thoughts. I love the name Reid, but thought it was too short. I just have a hard time picking because he'll be stuck with it the rest of his life. Teddy was DH's first choice, Liam was mine, and Henry snuck up on both of us and wound up being the name we now agree on!!!

Love them all - but Liam is SOO popular these days that I personally would avoid it.

I think I like Henry best but can't go wrong!

Henry - you can call him Hank to make it not seem so old fashioned.
