Baby Names

Baby Name Help!

I posted this on the April Mama's board, but wanted to get some input here as well...

Ok, so since we know that we are having a boy now, we are really trying to decide on a boy name. I have been stuck on Liam since the beginning, but I have been finding that Liam is becoming a VERY common name now and I don't like that fact, so I have been trying to look at others. My DH and I went through a baby name book this weekend and these are the options we have as of right now. Let me know which one sounds the best.

Liam Tristan (Tristan is DH Middle name)

Liam Bentley

Liam Brantley

Bentley Liam

Brantley Liam

As you can see, we are pretty sure on Liam being part of the name, but not the arrangement. HELP ladies...what do you think?

  • Liam is a great name, don't let the popularity bother you.  Thanks to Teen Mom, Bentley is becoming pretty popular now, too.

    I don't like Tristan, Bentley or Brantley but of the three, Tristan at least has a family connection (unless the others are family names, too)

    I agree with this 100%.

  • Liam Tristan (though would prefer William with nn Liam)

    Please don't name your son Bentley.

  • Liam Tristan is cute and has the family ties. That gets my vote.

    I don't like the "lee" sounds of Bentley Liam and Brantley Liam.

    I must agree. Liam is a great name. Bentley and Brantley, not so much. Liam Tristan gets my vote.

  • Go with Liam, please.

    While I don't like Tristan, I'd use it for a MN over Brantley and Bentley.

  • Thanks for the input ladies! We were definitely leaning towards Liam Tristan since day 1, so I think that might be it! Big Smile

  • Liam Tristan by default. Really dislike both Bentley and Brantley. I'm not a big fan of Tristan but it's nice that it's your DH's middle name too. I also like the suggestion of William/nn Liam. Good luck!
    VOTE on my Name List
  • I vote Liam Tristan because of the family connection to Tristan. Bentley and Brantley are nms and sound trendy to me. 

    I prefer Liam as a nickname to William if that's something you'd consider.

    I agree.  I really hate Bentley.
