Hi Everyone,
This is my first time posting to this board, but I didn't know where else to go. What do you think of the name Hamish for a boy? DH is Scottish and I should have seen this one coming!

good luck
There are a lot of traditional names used in Scotland too, such as Andrew, Charles, Thomas, William & James. Any one of those could be used comfortably with a Scots surname!
Hope that helps some!

The previous poster is probably correct about the mispronounciations, though, and of course, it's your baby, too, not just your husband's. You should be able name the baby something that you both like.
If all else fails and you can't agree, wait until you are in labor, and he's feeling guilty about all the pain you are in. Then TELL him what the baby's name is going to be!
Good luck!

I actually LOVE the name Hamish but DH hated it...so we settled on Seamus (Shay-mus) which is the Celtic version of James (whereas Hamish would be the Scottish version). Any chance that you could find another similar "version" that both of you like?

Maybe you can compromise and use Hamish as the middle name?
Best of luck finding something you both like!
