My baby son is named Arthur David William. Arthur was chosen to honour the legend of King Arthur. also as I'm Welsh and my partner is English and Arthur was "King of the Britons" we thought it was fitting and reflected his heritage. I think it is a beautiful name.
David and William are his two uncles - David is my partner's brother and William is my brother. |
