After much deliberating with DH (and attempting to get Seth to the top of the list - major fail), we are now down to two boys name for DS2 due in a few weeks.

Opinions please on Rufus or Rohan (DS1 called Dylan if it helps).

thank you!

Haha, you could be me, these were the two names I shortlisted for my son who is now 4 months old. I waited until he was born and one just seemed right.

I love Rowan (with this spelling) but think Dylan and Rowan/Rohan too similar tbh. Don't like Rufus. Hate Seth.

Rufus is great! Like Rowan but not Rohan. I don't like Seth at all.

How are you pronouncing Rohan? Roe-an or Roe-Han? I like Rowan spelled like that but not Roe-han. I'm not overly fond of Rufus but rather like Seth. Don't give up on it, keep working on your DH!

Think that leaves us at a 50/50 split..... Maybe we'll have to wait until he arrives.

Although DH has just thrown Jasper in to the mix

I much prefer Rufus with Dylan but you wouldn't believe the rows I had with DH about why I did NOT want to call DS2 Rufus..

Rohan! This is quite freaky as my baby is Seth Dylan and I'd wanted to call him Seth Rohan. I do love Jasper too though.
