Boy Name Help

in Baby Names
DH and I are team green and making two lists of names. DD is Emily Josephine named after her two great-grandmothers. If we have another girl, we are leaning towards Lucy or Anne (middle name tbd), but stuck on boy names. DH and I love classic, old-fashioned names like Henry and Oliver. Any more name ideas to add to that list? DH loves Thomas and George, but I'm a little "meh" about it. I love Everett, but DH isn't so sure.

Help!

FWIW, we're on the fence about Henry. Henry is DH's grandpa's name (who is married to Emily, DD's namesake). Is that weird having siblings named after a married couple?

    This baby would have been George if she had been a boy.

    I love Henry, but would avoid using it if it is a married couple in your family.

    Oh, and I personally wouldn't want my kids to be named after a married couple.  But only your family will know that.

    We have an Everett and I LOVE it on DS. I thought we would use the nicname Rhett but we actually don't ever call him that....we call him Boogie.

    With that being said, if your husband isn't on board with Everett, what about Elliott, or Emmett?
