Baby Names

What to go with Cael?

I'm 31w and have been shooting down every boy name that H has thrown at me since we started TTC again 2 yrs ago.

H threw out Cael and Reid. I like them together- it's the only name so far that I can actually picture myself naming this kid. He doesn't like the two one-syllable names.

 Any suggestions? At this rate, 3.0 will be old enough to pick his own name before I can come up w/anything!

Re: What to go with Cael?

  • How is that pronounced? Is it 'kale' or 'kyle' or... ?
  • Kale, Cael is just the traditional spelling
  • Loading the player...
  • I'd seen the name, just never knew how it was said! I'd go with two or three syllables... I like Donovan and Julian as MNs for Cael.
  • I like Reid, but not Cael
  • Honestly, I prefer the name Reid. But since you asked for suggestions to go with Cael...

    Cael Adam

    Cael David

    Cael Henry

    Cael Patrick

    Cael Stephen

    Cael Thomas

    Cael Nicholas

    I tend to prefer a more traditional sounding name for the mn since the fn is more unique.

  • I like Cael quite a lot!

    Cael Prescott

    Cael Austin

    Cael Bryant

    Cael Rafferty

    I agree it should have a 2-3 syllable middle

  • I don't like Cael at all. It is out there so I think a traditional name would sound good as a middle name that way he could go by his middle name if he doesn't like Cael.

    Cael William

    Cael Benjamin?

    Cael Michael

    Cael Joshua

    Cael Thomas

    Cael Daniel

    Cael Jason?

    Cael Matthew

    Cael David?

    Cael Tyler

    Cael Bryan?

  • I like Cael, nice irish name. I guess it would depend on whether you wanted a traditional middle name or not. 

    Cael Rhys (reece)  I'm partial to that, I have a Rhys, Leighton Rhys we call him Rhys.

  • A friend of mine had a boy and named him Cael Jason.  I think it sounds nice together.
  • I really like the name Cael. ?I hope you go with it. ?I can't think of any mn right now though sorry.

  • what's your last initial/ how many syllables?

    if it's more than 1 syllable it would sound fine although i prefer the spellings cale and reed (maybe not together though, as one is a fish and the other is a plant that grows in water).

    cael just looks kind of made up to me.

     Actually I was thinking more along the lines of cabbage, or artichoke, but thanks. Confused

     Last name starts with a T, is a long two syllable name.

    Thanks for the suggestions :)

  • The only Cael I knew pronounced it "Cal," and I like it. 

    I think someone's suggestions, Donovan, is a great mn for Cael.

  • Our DS is Cale Benjamin, named after BIL. But our LN is one syllable, so we def needed a 3-syl MN to break it up.

    Cael Maverick

    Cael Bennett

    Cael Xavier

    Cael Parker

    Cael Evan

     

    I like the suggestion of Cael Rhys. For some reason is sounds better to my ears than Cael Reid.

    I like Cael Rhys over Reid.  My first crush's name was Cael.  He was a cutie.

  • I like Rhys too, but H won't go for it. I'm honestly surprised he liked Cael, let alone suggested it!!

    I honestly can't get past the fact that it sounds like a cruciferous veggie.  Reid is far better, IMO.
