Hey guys,
I haven't posted since DS1 (Owen George) was born, but I could really use help naming DS2. He is due in March and DH and I are still really struggling to come up with a name we're happy with. We are planning on using Steven as the MN (a family name, just as George was a family name the first time). Our choices (and a BabyNames link for voting):
Henry
Oscar
Milo
Theo
Eli
Jack
Benjamin
Samuel
Nathan
Nathaniel
Miles
Grant
Carter
Those are in my approximate order of preference. I LOVE Henry, but can't quite get DH on board. We both like Oscar, but worry about choosing another "O" name and starting a pattern. I worry that Milo might be too soft or that our sibset will too closely resemble the movie "Milo and Otis". I like the other names, but none have really clicked for me.
What do you think of these names?
We prefer older/classic names and would ideally like to stay out of the top 20 or so. Are there other names that you think match our style and go well with Owen that we should be considering?
THANK YOU!
Re: Need name for DS2. DS1 is Owen George. Please help. :)
I love a lot of your choices. My Jack's middle name is Henry and I LOVE it. But, I know a ton of Henry's in my area. I actually know close to 10 little Henry's and only one other Jack. I think my top choices, off of your list, would be...
Milo Steven and Eli Steven
I'd cut Theo and Carter from your list.
Suggestions...
Owen and Julian
Owen and Atticus
