Early days I know but we've waited what feels like a lifetime for our bundle! Girl name is sorted, but I have no clue for boys names. Me and Hubby are both into the outdoors, and hubby is an environmentalist, so we want something along those lines. So far I have:
Hunter
Fisher
Rowan
Brock (Hubby thinks sounds 'too American')
Archer

Hubby has Scotish parents and I have Irish, so we could branch out that way (preferably Irish, of course!!) but whilst still keeping the outdoorsy theme.
 
Brock is the old English country word for a badger. It's still used in rural areas.
How about a Scottish island name : Harris or Arran
 
Yeah, he is just being obstructive I think! Lol!!

I LOVE the idea of a name after one of the Islands... I should dig a map out!
 
Chase
Eden
Oakley
Hayden
Parker
Forrest
Troy
Lincoln

I love Hunter, Archer and Rowan :)!
 
I am an environmental scientist too, and I love nature names, but my hubby is more of a traditional type of guy, so it has been hard. We have a Wesley Hunter - Wesley means of the western meadow. We also have a Chase. This third baby is a boy, but there is not really any nature names we both like, so we will have to see about this one.
 
Lauchlan (land of lakes)
Leif
Fox
Sage
Basil :)haha:)
Herb (Herbert, total my guilty pleasure name :haha:)

-- I like Brock but, I am American, lol

Thanks! I love loads of these suggestions! I had suggestesed Asher to Hubby who liked it.

I think he's being awkward about Brock because I don't like anything that sounds too Scotish, I've veto'd Hamish and Angus, because his family are so fiercly Scotish it gets my back up. They kept telling me before the wedding what colours/flowers/music/readings a 'Scotish' wedding should have..... Erm my family are Irish!! They totally tried to take over!

Also, we're Breaking Bad fans and there's a Brock on there so now hubby feels all vindicated!! Haha
 
We have River and Orion for our boys' middle names, we like nature names too :)
 
Also, sorry for hijacking thread, but a friend of mine recently named their baby Diver which I think is cute too

River
Ash
 
So we are having a boy after all! Very excited but the poor wee fella still doesn't have a name! River has come up a few times in conversation, so that's on the maybe pile.

Is there anyone out there with any more suggestions? I'm seriously concerned this baby is going to be called Bubba Shrimp for the rest of his life!
