Default Need some help

We recently found out we were having a boy! YAY! Now we have to decide on a name, not so YAY!

The three we like so far are:
Blake (my maiden name)
Connor
Cooper

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated as I have absolutely no idea how we are going to decide!

I love Blake and Connor Cooper's too much of a surname-sounding name for my liking.

I like the meaning behind Blake for you and I think it goes best with your DS name out of the three!

They're all good. Connor is probably my favourite. My nephew is a Cooper, and I love it, but it is very common these days.

I'm not into Blake - only from experience of working with bratty Blakes though.

i like Blake espessially because it has such meaning.

I have a little boy with the middle name Slaide as Slaide is my DPs Mothers maiden name
i think it gives them that connection without accually having the same name if you know what i mean.

I agree that Blake's a great name and it has great meaning too

I also really like Connor, not too fond of Cooper.

I like Blake best too. It was on our list of boys names too. Love it.
Not a fan of Connor or Cooper cause I know so many of them, and they're all brats.
You've got a shortlist of 3, so you could always wait until he's born and see what you think then.
