I need "different" boy name suggestions

eburgmama · January 2014

Not weird, just somewhat off the beaten path. I have a Finnegan and I just cant find a boy name I like as much as his name! Our girl name atm is Harper, though I also love London, Ever and Piper.

SuperMom17 · January 2014

DS is Sebastian, which I don't hear often. We also like Oscar, Archer, Gannon, and Silas.

I was going to suggest Oliver, but it's not "different". It's very common now.

Sullivan
Theodore
Asher

Noah (I know popular but still love it)
Arthur
Flynn (maybe too close to Finnegan)
Kieran
Pierce
Brooks

Just fyi, for your girl name. If you are looking for "different" and "off the beaten path", Harper is not it.

eburgmama · January 2014

I should note since its been mentioned above that some names on my list are not "different". I'm just asking for different boy names because I have read all of the common ones and none interest me. If I like a name I don't really care of it is in the top 50 or not!

eburgmama · January 2014

Really? Emma, Ava, madison, and siohia are VERY popular. While not different, the names I listed are not exactly in the very commin category. By that standard you'd probably classify my daughter's name, Zoë as very common and there are only 2 others in her entire elementary school.

Ok dont get upset about it, you asked for "different" which a lot of people on here take as not anywhere near the top 100. It's ok if you use Harper and think it's different. We're just giving suggestions.

eburgmama · January 2014

Oh I'm not upset! Sorry it came across that way. I just wanted different boy names hoping there is a name I hadn't heard yet that might pop out as "the one". I had never said I thought any of the names on my list we're unique or anything!

TyrinM03 · January 2014

Easton or Warren

BlindysWife · January 2014

suburbanstepmom · January 2014

My boy name list - not all "off the beaten path" necessarily but I figured I'd share:

Isaac

Connor

Elijah

Noah

Jackson

Caleb

- whichever boy name we end up picking (should we ever get BFP) will be coupled with the middle name James since it's a family tradition from my side and my SS took DH's family name!
