boy name help

I'm looking for help with a boy name I want something different but not too unique. ..

Can you give more specifics? What kind of names do you like so far?

That's just it I'm stumped I haven't found boy names we like at all. We had Hayden picked out years ago and then my brother in law named their son Aiden so we got rid of that we had Gavin but now I watch a boy by that name, we do like Jackson but I know it is super popular right now.

Our last name is the same as many Amish and Mennonite though we aren't either one. Too many of the older original names sound Amish when paired with our last name

Why not check out the social security name list.  Search above 250 500 or even beyond the top 1000.  You will find a lot of underused names.  Check names/spelling with behindthename.com for legitness.  You can also try nymbler.com you can put in names like the ones you listed and it will give suggestions.  However the three you listed are quite trendy so it might not actually give you very "unique" names.

@laurenbeyer, just curious why you altered the spelling of the name Elias? Two L's are not necessary. Ellias is not a proper variant spelling, rather, it just looks misspelled.

Silas. Julian. Linus. Clark. Timothy. Garrett. Quinn. Xavier.

@brita722 Ellis is another name on our list, so we just kept the double l's and added an a.

@laurenbeyer - Hubby passed Elias by me the other night and I wasn't liking it a lot. BUT I love how you added the extra L. It may sway me over

I like Kai and Keegan is another name I have come across and kind of like.
