My DH wants to honor his grandpa Albert, so we are thinking of picking a boy name that begins with AL. A while ago we had decided on Alex, but since then my sister has started seeing someone very seriously named Alex.
What are your suggestions? I'm not into crazy unique names but I would prefer something not in the top 100. (which I know Alex is)
There are just so few AL options.
I would love to hear your ideas.
Re: Little Al
I like Alessio. Another idea is Alvin.
I would just go with Albert or Albin. You can call him Albie for a NN, which I find very cute.
When honoring someone with a name, my preference is a name that is an obvious honor of that person. I just don't see Alex as a name to honor an Albert, but that may just be me.
Gpa always went by Al so the nn little Al is more important than using his actual name. Plus both of us are not a fan of using Albert.
DH proposed Allen but all I can thing of is that character from two and a half men.
I like Alden but Im worried it would be pronounced All-den instead of Al-den.
I love Alain and Alden
It's an easy thing to google though:
