So he can keep his US passport as we are intending to travel to the US in 2 weeks - I doubt the UK passport will be back by then.
Only checked his passport now when I cam to book tickets.

Parents nationality is not important when renewing the passport of a child. They are now citizens in their own rights. The section about parents and grandparents names can be ignored. They need the foreign passport to ascertain that the name in the 2 passports do not differ. All the rest is irrelevant as the form is the same for all passport applications.
