Boy name suggestions! Help!

in Baby Names
Me and SO have had our girl name picked out for a long time (Gwen), but haven't had luck with boy names. For a while we were going with Oliver, and although I still love the name I'm not 100% on it. We want something "normal" but not super common. SO hates unisex names, so that's out too. He suggested Nathan once, which I quickly vetoed but other than that we haven't come up with much.

I suggested Taylor, Harrison, Tucker, Graham, Max, Jamie and all were a big no! Trying to compile a list for him but am having trouble finding names that aren't super trendy.

Suggestions?? Anyone??!!

    He has now opened his options to Oliver and Wyatt. That's it. I like them both, but I only have two options??!!!?? Sheesh!!!

    Tell him he has a week to come up with 20 names to add to the discussion. He can't veto everything if he doesn't give some ideas

    Definitely Oliver over Wyatt. And, I agree that your husband needs to contribute! For every name he vetoes, he must suggest one in its place!

    Also love Jude, Silas, Isaac, Reid, Rhys, Sebastian, Vaughn, Malcolm, Patrick, Devon, and Christopher.

    Well I have a Wyatt, Everett and this baby will be Gwen. So maybe our taste is similar.

    Other names on our boy list were Theodore, Avery, Alistair and Thatcher.

    I like Oliver nn Ollie or Iver.

    @CGless lol! He added Emmett to the list (similar to Everett) so I guess tastes are verrrrryyy similar!! hoping for a girl so we can just call her Gwen and don't have to argue over boys names!
