Baby Names

Help please

I'm looking for a boys name that is three or more syllables and doesn't have a nickname. Am I asking too much? Our last name is one syllable and I don't think one syllable first names sound good with it. For example, I LOVE Nicholas, but Nick doesn't sound good with our last name because it's one syllable. Is there a website where I can search names by syllables? Do you have any suggestions?

  • Christopher, Alexander, Jefferson,

    Even thought they could be called Chris, Alex, and Jeff doesn't mean that you 'have' to give them a nn. It is whatever you what them to be called. IMO

    I see what you're saying, but when they are teenagers, they should be allowed to be called whatever they want. My MIL named her sons Benjamin and Phillip and always told people to call them that. Well, now that they are adults they go by Ben and Phil and those names don't sound good with our last name. I want to avoid what my MIL did. She gets really mad when people call them Phil and Ben, but it was bound to happen imo. ?

  • Well, some of my suggestions are only going to have 2 syllables.  I don't know your last name, but I picked "Tate" just to try them out with a 1 syllable last name and they sounded fine.  It may not work in your case.  Here are a gew suggestions:

    Elijah, Brennan, Emerson, Emery, Tanner, Hunter, Oliver, Parker, Everett

     I also really like Isaiah like a pp mentioned.
