2nd Trimester

Baby Boy Names!!!! Uggg!

Ok, is anyone else who is having a boy having a hard time picking out a name?  I can't find one that I am in LOVE with.  If I do like one, then my husband (aka the name nazi) doesn't like it.   I know I have time, but I just want to call him something else than baby boy.

  • It's very very hard. But eventually one will come to you! GL!

  • I'm having a terrible time with boy names.  DH keeps suggesting name after name and the most I can muster is 'it's alright."  I remember while picking out names for DD I would come across names and really envision using them.  Now with a boy the names don't "move" me.

  • we have had the same problem. ?we have ?girl name picked that we love, but cant think of a boy name we love or agree on!
  • Yep.  Girl name was no problem but boy names are *really* hard for us.  We have a few we like, but none that feel like "the one".  I think we'll probably wind up with a few possibilities and then pick one once he's here.  Ugh.

  • Boy names were MUCH harder for us. Good luck!
  • I know in my heart I am having a boy because we cannot think or agree on a name.  It'll come to you!

  • here are my favorite boy names - Jayden, Jackson. Chase, Kayden, Jalen - needless to say we already have a Jackson and we cannot agree on baby boy #2 either. My husband want to name the baby Jordan??? I'm not sold on that name yet.

  • We were opposite-- there are many boy names that I love, but so few girl names that I can decide on. :(
  • We had a hard time.  Everything we kind of liked was getting too popular for our taste.  Finally I saw it on a website and it clicked it was like...'That's what I've been looking for'.  Names I liked but DH vetoed were Garner and Gable

    DH and I are having a hard time with boy names too! We had a girl name picked out, but we're having a little boy! He'll probably remain nameless until he's born. We just call him "little guy" right now.

  • My favorite boy names (for some inspiration):

    Mason (obviously)
    Thomas
    James
    Logan
    Christopher (DH's name)
    Thaddeus
    Oliver
    Remy (Remington/Remus)
    Cedric
    Colin
    Jackson (or just Jack)

  • I have nothing helpful to add, but just wanted to say that I feel your pain - we're on the same page.  I fear this baby will never have a name.

    The problem is that DH has a few names he loves for baby, and so do I, but we mostly think each other's names are... hideous.  For example, my boy pick is "Gavin".  He thinks it's a "wussy"/"girly" name.  Seriously, DH?  I think that Gavin is a strong, masculine name, and I've never heard it used for a girl... Grrr...

  • I am glad to see that I am not the only person is this situation.  Not that I want you all to suffer either! Big Smile I was up all night just running names through my head.  We had Sophie picked out for a girl and we where dead set on it.  Now we have thrown some names around like Wyatt, Kaleb, and Levi...but, not in love with them.  One day I think of a cool name, then next I don't like it at all.  I am sure it will come to me...it has to because he has to have a name.  Thanks for your help gals!
  • Oh- you reminded me of something.

    At our church nursery we have a little Levi and he is precious. Even better... his big brother's name is Ezra. LOVE IT.

  • I am in the exact same boat!  We have tons of girls names, but I didn't even bother thinking about girls names because I knew from day 1 we were having a boy.  When it was confirmed it made it that much harder!

  • We find out what we are having in two weeks but wanted to have 2 boy names and 2 girl names already picked out.  We cannot find boy names that we like.  We had no problem with the girl names.
