Baby Boy Names

stbmrsgriggs · April 2015

My husband and I cannot decide on a name for our son. It's our first and I don't want to hastily pick a name that's uber-trendy or hipster, but also not dull. I think I'm putting too much pressure on the whole thing, but I don't want to get sick of the name or my son hate it our something:P I know that's crazy and I'd love to blame it on hormones, but it's probably just me haha. Both sets of grandparents are constantly on us about the names too, and everyone is VERY vocal and opinionated which adds extra pressure. Any thoughts/recommendations/advice on the topic would be greatly appreciated!!

There is a baby names board where then ladies there LOVE this kind of stuff. You may not even have to ask a question, just look around in there and see what they have thought up for others. Here's the link

Just want to add that you're in no way crazy for wanting to make sure your son's name is perfect! In fact you sound very thoughtful

Maybe you and your DH can pick your top 5 names separately and then discuss those names. It's okay not to have a name until the baby is born! Or even after for a little bit

When you hear the name you will both know! Good luck

I'm in the same boat with picking a name. I've let friends and family know a while back that we decided not to tell the name until he's here. That's helped with some of the pressure.
