Help with boy names please

monlyn9

I have been racking my brain trying to come up with boy names that DH likes. I spent an hour on Nymbler a couple of days ago and went until it stopped giving me names! I came up with this list of names that I was not immediately repulsed by, showed them to DH and he hated all of them! Someone help with some other suggestions. We have a 3 syllable German last name, want to use Michael or Thomas (family names) as the middle name, and want the name to be a definite boys name because we tend towards unisex names for girls. Thanks for any help you can give.

Here is the list I gave to DH

 

Alec

Alex

Anderson

Barrett

Beckett

Benjamin

Bennett

Brandon

Caleb

Carson

Chase

Colin

Dawson

Drew

Easton

Emerson

Garrett

Griffin

Harrison

Hayden

Isaac

James

Jefferson

Joel

Joshua

Kevin

Landon

Lawson

Lucas

Matthew

Nathaniel

Reese

Reid

Samuel

Spencer

I have a German last name too...and have VERY similar taste in names as you do.  Most of all our top names are on your list.  We are going with Nathan Gregory (DH's first name).  So my pick is Nathaniel Thomas.

I need names that are NOT on this list...DH vetoed every name on there. I need other suggestions please.

Sorry I'm not very helpful since I mentioned that our fav names are already on there.  I would stop doing the research and playing mind reader for your hubby since he seems very opinionated.  I would shove my computer in his face, with a baby name website and tell HIM to make a list of HIS favorites.  My hubby picked both our final boy and girl name by playing around on a website....I loved his choices, and can tell he is proud he came up with the one we went with.

Since I'm only 18 weeks, he is not in any hurry to work on naming this child. I don't think he understands what a process it can be. He says he has thought about names, just hasn't come up with anything that he likes yet, so he is not sharing.

I also have a 3 syllable german last name.. and we're also going with Thomas as a middle name (after both of our Grandfathers)

When we get pregnant, and if I have a boy, he'll be Julian Thomas. Not sure if that's already been vetoed.

Why not Michael Thomas or Thomas Michael? ?You both like both of these names.

NoleGirlKEF:

Why not Michael Thomas or Thomas Michael?  You both like both of these names.

I don't like either of them as first names, just middle names. They are our dads' names and Michael is DHs middle name. We want to honor our dads but not name the kid after them, if that makes sense.

I like Benjamin, Caleb, Chase, Colin, Isaac, James, Joshua, Kevin, and Matthew the best. Drew, Hayden and Reese are unisex since you are trying to avoid them.?

FMIL&MOB

Anthony, Barron, Cooper, Derrick, Ethan, Grant, Joseph, Clark, Ryder, Trenton, Zander

But, I like the names on your list better.

Based on that list, I'd say that we have very similar naming tastes.  Some on my initial list that you don't have on yours (with your middle name options) are:

Gavin Michael/ Gavin Thomas

Preston Michael/ Preston Thomas

Cameron Michael/ Cameron Thomas

Evan Michael / Evan Thomas

 

I think they all sound good... GL with agreeing on something great!
