Hello everyone, my name is Kayleigh and I'm expecting my first son with my husband Todd. Todd already has two children from his previous marriage, Robert Nicholas (12) and Beatrice Grace (9). We've agreed on the name Gilbert James for our baby boy, after my father, but we really wanted a nice nickname for him. We call Robert 'Robbie' and Beatrice 'Bea', but I'm not that into 'Gil' (reminds me of CSI). Any suggestions? Thank you so much!

Love your stepchildren's names, so cute! I actually like the name Gilbert, too - though it reminds me of CSI (oh, well, I'm a fan). Since you don't like Gil, I suppose Gilly is out too? Maybe Bert? It's a bit difficult. I don't really like Gilly, but Bert is okay, I guess. Sorry, that's all I have. Good luck!

I like Gilbert. Cute.

I can only think of Bertie as a nicname. Hmmmm, the nn for Gilbert all seem a bit old fashioned and out dated
