Just want to be wowed!

Aprilmek

We are having our second DS next week and we have a strong front runner and a few back up names. But nothing has really wowed us this time. I come on this board every night just looking for something different but all the names just seem the same. I want something different but not out there either. And I'm not a traditional name kind of girl. I'm not sure why this time is so hard. Oh and also, my DH loves 1 syllable names. Do you have anything fresh and new that we could both agree on? Our first DS is named Chase. Any suggestions are welcome, thanks!

Take a closer look at all the names you pass. My favorite names, I didn't even notice the first few times hearing them. It was when I slowed down to think a little more that I found the best names I overlooked before.

One syllable names are hard. 

Nymbler suggested:  Brice, Dean, Clark, Beau, Trent, Troy, Ross, Cole, Clive, Blake, Max, Gage, Clint, Curt, Reece, Dane, Tate, Blaine, Bruce, Drake, Trey, Guy, Lane, Claude, Royce, Kane, Wade, Brett, Reid, Joss, Luke, Miles, Shay/Shea, Flynn, Finn, Rex, Leif

I think Clive is really distinctive and is my favorite on the list.

I can totally relate to what you are saying. We have a boy and we are having a girl in 2 weeks and I have a few front runners. But nothing is blowing me out of the water. I come on every day/night to see if anything new has been posted. I cant find much on the name sites either. Same stuff.

Same here! Less than 4 weeks to go and still nothing nailed down and we need 2 names (team green).  It seems much harder this time.
