Baby Boy Name Poll

edited February 2016 in Baby Names
I'm 34 weeks and 2 days and everyone has been asking us about the name since we found out it was a boy. I'm starting to think we won't have an answer until we meet baby. My husband has a one syllable, very normal last name. I have a very Irish name and want to use my last name for a middle name. To add a twist, my husband plays Irish music and we both like Irish names, but I hate his first pick - Seamus. So we have a couple Irish names we agree on and then our other agreeable options are just normal names that we like. The goal is a nice name without making life too difficult for our little boy. :)

Re: Baby Boy Name Poll

  • I voted Joshua since it's an all time fave of mine. I do like Eamonn a lot but he may have a few issues with people pronouncing it wrong. I don't like the name Cullen as a FN and it reminds me of Twilight. What about middle naming it?
  • I would avoid Cullen it will sound like a law firm not a name with three surnames. All the others are solid

  • I voted Joshua but also love Jeremy, Matthew and Connor.

  • While I do think of twilight initially, I like Cullen a lot and since it is sentimental I think it should be a frontrunner. Connor is nice too.

  • I voted Cullen....I like it because it's not very commo and has sentimental ties. I have a little cousin named Cullen (also a family name) and he doesn't get made fun of because of twilight 
  • I voted for Cullen. I love that name and don't really think of Twilight (even though I read the books and watched the movies). I had it on our list for a boy, until I realized it sounded funny with our last name. The rest are too popular for my liking, and I am not really a fan of Eamonn

  • Please not Matthew, there's a trillion of them. I don't care for Jeremy, just a preference. The others are nice 
  • Connor seems perfect for you. Nice, normal name and very Irish.
  • Connor! I also personally dont hate Conner Cullen even with the double C.
