Share your boy names!!

sleeping5beauty · January 2012

I have a feeling that this baby will be nameless unless you help me!! My husband and I can't find a name that we love! Here are the names that we both agree that we like right now: Theodore, Garrett, Dexter, and Oliver. My son is Orion, I think Orion and Oliver is a tongue twister when you call out for both of them.

I love Nathaniel, but DH doesn't. He really likes Arthur and Alejandro (my son is blond hair and blue eyed Irish boy).

I could use your help. Please recommend your boy names. I don't like common names, so no Henry, John, James, William (like it, but way to popular) etc.

Any ideas will be appreciated. I know that 8 weeks are going to fly by!

Thanks

I like Garrett! Before we found out we were having a girl, DH and I both agreed that we liked Dean and Logan.

If we have a boy, we decided on Dylan. If its a girl, we have no idea.

We are naming DS Abe

ETA: The only other name on our list was Tate

If LO were a boy, she would have been Finnegan (nn Finn). Also on the list were Harrison, Calvin, Alistair, and Oscar.

I also love Miles (I dated one for a long time, so that got vetoed) and Felix.

Our little man is Mason. I really loved the name Peyton for a boy too but DH nixed that because of a little boy his mom used to babysit.

I also LOOVVVEEEE the name Kellan but because of my slight (ok, major) Twilight obsession and my favorite actor in the movies name is Kellan, DH nixed that too.

Boys names were really hard for us. We knew a girls name right away.

Ours would have been Nolan if she was a boy.

SaintDorothyMantooth · January 2012

We had a horrible time picking out boy names, but we finally landed on Parker (down from Charles, Logan, Zachary, Parker). We're still deciding on a middle name, but it will either be James or Everett.

Two names I've been hooked on: Elliot and Emmett.

GalwayGirl80 · January 2012

My son's name is Cameron.

If this one was a boy, he would've been one of the following:

Liam
Jacob
Wyatt

Babycakes29 · January 2012

Our boy's name is Caleb... Back up options would have been Jacob or Noah.

sedo2480 · January 2012

Our son is Drayton

Dee6922 · January 2012

The names on our short list: Connor,Gavin and Liam and the name we chose is Braeden....but I like the name Garrett on your list

KatieD212 · January 2012

Salt....I love the name Finnegan (nn Finn) but DH vetoed it.

OP....We have our names narrowed down between Jake and Maxwell. We just haven't been able to choose which one yet.

When I brought it up to my H and he loved it, I was so shocked! I wasn't expecting him to love it as much as I do.

I think Jake and Maxwell both sound great with Charlie! Good choices. (And I love love love your sig pic!)

Our boy name was Owen Alexander. I still love Jamison/Jameson, but G said it reminded him of booze.

DS #1 is Wesley Bennette (named after my grandfather)

DS #2 is Matthew Stephen (named after my father)

I loved the names Grayson, Eli, Hollis, Wyatt but DH put his foot down on all of them.

Khecht · January 2012

DS#1 is Westin Edward

DS#2 is Grant Michael

We had a hard time agreeing on anything for either! But when we did agree we knew that was the one

I loved both Theodore (obviously) and Dexter. I especially love Theodore since it has a variety of nicknames. Ted if he's a science teacher, Theodore if he's a lawyer, Theo if he's a rock star, and Teddy to his first girlfriend. We plan on calling him Theo (it's a family tradition for the first son to go by his middle name in DH's family). I may even call him Tad- partly because I've loved that name for ages, and partly because we called him Tadpole during early gestation.

A name similar to Theodore that DH and I both liked is Sebastian, but it didn't flow the best with his first and last name. Other names we liked were Oliver, Lawrence, Walter, Ernest, and Bernard. DH also really likes Ramsey.

Miranda314 · January 2012

I love the name Oliver but BF has a cat named that so we cant use it..But i love Myles .. and me and BF decided on Alexander for our lil boy
