We are having our second boy. Our son's name is Lucas William. We're having a hard time with names since we have a ton of boys in our family and close to us.
Although I think if you were yelling for the boys (a time honored test of whether a name will work) that yelling "Lucas! Atticus! Lunch time!" would be kind of hard on the tongue.
Life is either a daring adventure or it is nothing at all.
I LOVE the name Evan, but we're naming our kid Steven (if it turns out we're team blue) after both of our fathers. Even if we have another boy, I can't do Steven and Evan. Too similar.
I have always liked Henry and Robert for more traditional names. I also like Aiden, Oliver, Reese...
We're naming our son with family names. Caton Finn
He will be the 5th generation to have Caton as a first name. (My husband's family came from Portugal, and this name got Americanized over the years.) and Finn is my Great Grandmother's maiden name when she immigrated from Ireland.
Maybe dig deep in the family tree and you'll find something interesting.
Re: Tell me your favorite boys names..... please.
I adore the names:
Connor
Nathan
Liam
I get vetoed by DH on all my boys names, I guess it's a good thing that we are having a girl
Caleb, Gavin, Roryn, Xavier, James, Adriel are just some of my favs.
I like the classics:
Henry
Michael
Edward
Andrew
Marshall
Atticus
