Baby Names

Thoughts on Sawyer..

What do you think of the boy name Sawyer?

 If you like it, can you suggest middle names?

 Thanks..

  • I like it, but it makes me think of Lost, which I love but would not choose a name from.

  • I LOVE the name Sawyer.  I saw it in a Pottery Barn Kids catalog a while ago.  
  • One of my my nephews is a Sawyer. He's a lovely little boy and I love his name.

    His middle name is James. I would suggest a name with either 1 or 3 syllables like

    Sawyer Clark, Sawyer Gage 

    Sawyer Benjamin, Sawyer Joshua

  • I love the name Sawyer and even started calling this baby Sawyer.  Some people had brought up the Lost reference but I didn't care.

    What turned me off about the name was that I was worried it was going to start becoming super popular.  I have seen it mentioned on a few message boards here and there lately and also used as a girl's name.

    Although I still love the name, I have shelved it for now as one to watch and maybe use later Wink

  • Sorry, I didn't answer the rest of your question!

    Some of the middle names that I had liked when I considered this name were:

    Sawyer Jack, Sawyer Blaine, Sawyer William, Sawyer Miles

  • That's our #1 boy name right now.  For MN I like James or Quinn

  • It's a great boy name.  I am terrible at middle names but I do like the name.
  • I actually love Sawyer. I wanted to use it is a mn for LO, who is a girl. SO HATES it though, so it was taken off the list.

  • I LOVE the name Sawyer - DH vetoed it. As for a mn - I'd probably go with a simple, one syllable name (James, Luke, etc.)
  • I like it but only because I think of the hottie bad boy from Lost.

  • I'm not a fan.

    I know this is probably only me, but I immediately first think The Adventures of  Tom Sawyer and all those books I read in high school. Secondly, I think of LOST. Either way, it is just nms.

  • It's ok, nms. I have a friend who just named her baby boy Sawyer. I'm not sure what his mn is, though.

     This!

  • I like it..  would really need to know last name to suggest middle but would prefer something classic and short  like Ryan, James, Thomas etc..

  • I love Sawyer! I think a lot of names would go well as a mn. Sawyer Ross popped into my head so that is my suggestion.

  • nms, but not awful or anything.  I'd just be careful about not choosing a mn that comes from LOST.  You may not watch the show, but lots of people do, and naming your kid Sawyer Jack or Sawyer Miles (Sawyer Jin?) will look a tad obsessive. JMO.
