We found out on Monday we are having a boy (yay!), so the name search begins. I'm looking through a baby name book that I have from when I was pregnant with DD, and I'm just not finding anything that sticks out. DD's name is Natalie, so I want something that "goes" with her name, but not something too matchy. For example, DH and I both love Nathan, but we both agree it's way too similar to her name. Suggestions? And, go!
Re: boy names that flow with DD's
Ethan Chance Shane Chase Connor Drew Lucas Burke Harrison Callum Joshua or Dean?

I grew up next-door neighbors to a Natalie (love it!) her sibling was Tanner.. I always felt they matched really well together.
Is Nicholas too matchy?
No, I don't think so. I'm not sure if I like it. It's weird. Every name I'm like, oh, I like that, but don't love it. Thanks for the suggestions ladies, keep 'em coming!
Ooh, good to know! My mom said she didn't think it sounded too matchy either.
Sorry, I think they are too "matchy", especially if they go by Nat and Nate for nicknames. Other options: Jacob, Ethan, Andrew, Lucas, Grant, Jack.
I know a set of twins (they're about 25 or so) named Natalie and Nathan. I always thought it was too matchy.
What about: Owen, Patrick, Liam, Henry, Elijah, Aaron, or Samuel? I think those all have a similar "feel" to Natalie.
i actually have a baby name book that gives you names that go well with each name. Anyway the Brothers names they have for Natalie are
Evan
Zachary
Christian
Lucas
Aaron
Best of luck to you!
I wouldn't go with Nathan.
Like PP said, there is the Nate & Nat nns, which are way too close.
When I was in elem. school I was in the same class as a Nathan, and our teacher always mixed up our names. I never did like her.
First thing I though of was Connor (not sure why!)
Others that I think sound cute with Natalie: Davis, Maddox, Max, Oliver, Liam
Greyson, Hazen, Harlan, Nathaniel, Douglas, Neil, Nelson, Nigel, Noah, Nolan?
Good luck!
I normally lurk but FWIW...
My name is Natalie and I have 3 brothers... Zachary, Samuel and Max. I know these names we're brought up in other posts but just thought I'd share!
