Having already posted polls on Aidan vs Harry (Aidan 19, Harry 14) and should we name DS3 after DH (Yes 25, No 52, Other 5) we still struggling to name this boy... and now we only have 3 weeks to go!

So what do you think? Harry Sean or Rowan Sean?

We have a couple of Harrys in the family, so Rowan is appealing because he would be the only one, but we're also very comfortable with Harry (DS2 was very close to being Harry and we've always liked it).

Help, we're just hopeless! :rolleyes:

I really like full name Harrison, nickname Harry. Good luck :)

I really like the name Harry, though Rowan is quite nice too. I've not seen it spelt that way before. I always see it as Rohan.

I love both but voted Rowan only because it's a little less common than Harry. :)

Rowan is Irish, Rohan is Indian ;)

Yes, I like Harry :yes:

I was going to call this one Harry, Henry or Harvey if it was to be a boy - but it's a girl :p

Oops, I probably should have made it clear that Harry would be the full name. This is part of my problem with Harry; on the one hand I won't use Harrison, Henry, Harold etc, but on the other I do feel that Harry is a bit too much of a nickname. We also already have a few Harrys in the family...

One more bump for this thread and then I think we'll have to make up our minds, I can't stand bub being unnamed for much longer! :laughing:

I'm not UTD yet but one of the names DH and I like is Harrison with Harry as the nickname. However, I voted for Rowan Sean because I think these two names sound better together.

I love love love Harry, it sounds so sweet a little boy and yet sexy when he is grown up :o

Thanks for your input everyone! I think we've decided...

I tossed the decision over to DH. His favourite was Harry, but he was concerned that it was too much of a nickname for an older man, so bub will be Henry Sean, and we will call him Harry.

Thanks again! :goodvibes:
