Indecision
Our second boy was born 4 weeks ago and we still don't have a name for him. DANIEL and HUGO made our shortlist, but after seeing him we don't think he looks like either of them. We have been thinking of LUI, as an unusual version of Louis. What do you think??

I really like the spelling Louie :-)
Dont like Daniel, personally i find it too plain and boring. Hugo is sweet, but if he looks like neither then pointless. I have to agree with everybody else and say that i would go with Louis instead of lui, lrt us know what you decide. my freind had the same trouble with her 2 girls and it turns out with both of them their names came like a bolt from the blue. one has a name that was way down on the list of originaml names and the other was given a name her parents hadn't previously thought of.
Wow, 4 weeks is a lot! Here, you need to register the babies before about 10 days, I think!
Lui is cute, but definitely better as a nn, maybe for Luigi?
Or, what about:
Hugh
Heath
Henry
Marco (you're user name is "guido2002", and Lui seems pretty Italian too, so are you Italian?)
Mattias
I love all this names, since I love Daniel and specially Hugo, I thought you'd probably like some of my favourite names.

Well you could call him Louis on his birth certificate and use Lui as a nickname
I like both Daniel and Hugo

I can understand what your going through. With my 5th and 6th children we had no idea of names as all our obvious favorites had been used on our other children. it took us 3 weeks for our 5th and 5 weeks for our 6th 2 look through all the books and finally decide on Rylan and McKenna. I like both daniel and Hugo, bt can understand how it just doesnt suit the baby. Louis or Lewis is a lovely name and Lui is great as a nn.
Lui is nice and i agree that Hugh is better than Hugo
I like Lui. However, you should be aware it could be more likely to be interpreted as a short form of Luigi than as an alternate spelling of Louis.

Daniel is a good name. I really don't know what he looks like so I can't help.
wow..... what have you been calling him these past four weeks?
ummm I don't like Lui as a name, why not just use Louis?? or name him after someone like his father or one of his grandparents...???
sorry I'm not much help....
