boys name

I have been looking at names forever I had no problem comming up with female names, but male names have been hard to think of I like a lot but not enough.

Our top names so far are

Harrison
Benjamin
Oliver
Quinn

Im really liking Harrison the best with the mn James, DH isn't sure he wants to commit, Benjamin James was another top contender but DH is not happy with the BJ short form. I have noticed a few people using Oliver and think it may be a more popular name and Quinn I don't like as much as I used to.

Any thoughts or sugestions of names would be helpfull

Well.. I was going to say Benjamin but I have to agree that a boy with the name BJ would suck! lol.

Oliver is my favorite.

I will say I love Harrison I just think it sounds very masculine.  It was an Idea for us but, our last name is Cass and I don't want people to think they can call him Harry Cass so we ruled it out!!

Harrison:  I don't love because I wouldn't want my son to be NN'd Harry

Benjamin: I like, but don't love with James.  "jamin" and "james" right next to each other seems like a bit much, IMO

Oliver: I really like!  This gets my vote.  I suggested it for a boy, but DH vetoed (before we knew the sex).  Plus, I think Oli (sp?) is a cute NN, so it wouldn't bother me if it got shortened.

Quinn:  Sounds feminin to me.  That's probably because I watch Glee and there's a girl on there name Quinn.

GL!  When it comes down to it, don't feel like you just have to fall in love.  Just pick a nice, strong name that you think you can live with.

Personally I like Oliver the best:) But I acutally LOVE all those names. Harrison was at the top of our list this time around.

By the way we call DS Ollie as a nn.

I love your name choices )

My sons name is Benjamin, and the LO due in June is going to be Oliver. I say great minds think alike! I obviously love both those names and LOVE all the NN's that come with them.

We call our son Ben or Benny sometimes, and Oliver is going to be NN'ed Ollie.

I'm not as big of a fan of Quinn and Harrison, but they're both nice masculine names that would work.  

Good luck with your choices!

I LOVE Harrison!! If our last name didn't also end in 'son' I would have it at the top of my list. I love Quinn too, but I have it on my girls name list.

Thank you for all your insight I still think Harrison and Benjamin are my top two. Will have to get my dh to talk names with me without rolling his eyes, he still thinks we have tons of time left I keep trying to remind him how fast 13 weeks to our wedding went for him to understand
