Katieelh just out of interest do you have any other boys? If so what are they called? I'm stuck for names.

Also what's best....Lucas or James to go with Oliver?

I think both go really well. Either lucas or James are a great choice to go with Oliver, we also have a harvey.

I like James best, then Luke and finally Lucas.

I think Luke is much nicer than Lucas, which is a bit wet-sounding.

  1. Luke 2. James 3. Lucas

Lucas or James go well with Oliver. Luke is not so nice, reminds me of a naughty rough kid.

Love them both, but I'd opt for Lucas, as chances are it'll get shortened to Luke later in life anyway! I know a Lucas who is called "Lukie" by his Mum [he's 21 now] and Luke by his mates!

Similarly, my Lewis, is Lou to his siblings and classmates, Lou-lou to M&D and Lewis to everyone else!

I prefer Luke, but Lucas is nice too.

What about Charlie?

I prefer Luca. I know its not an option, but i like it.

Of luke and Lucas though, it would be Luke I think, but maybe spelled Luc.
