Help with boy name for brother Cullen

cZacZa member
in Baby Names
We find out this month if #2 is a boy or girl. We are all set on a girl name but we are really struggling with a boy name. We don't like very popular names and we don't want another C name. Middle name will be Ryan. DS is Cullen. Any suggestions?

    I would go with a surname, but not one that is popular or trendy in any way. One that cannot be linked to a celebrity, or a vampire.

    This will make it seem as though your choice of Cullen was simply because you like surnamey kinds of names, and will downplay the vampire effect.

    ... Unless of course you like the fact that most people assume you named him after Robert Pattinson's Twilight character. In which case... you might as well go for Jacob! Wink

    No I like surnames. We liked Colin but not it's popularity. Honestly I have only been asked about the Twilight refrence once in 2 years before you.

    I'm not saying you did choose it because of that. I'm just saying that people are thinking you did. I stand by my suggestion of picking a surnamey name that can't easily be linked to pop culture.
