  I love the name Logan. I like Reid as well. I also love Cason (or Cayson) which goes well with Carter.

  Reid is alright.
  These sound more country to me though, so I'm confused by the style of name you like.

  March 2011: Off Nuva, cycle back to "normal" for me: No periods since 15 years old. June 2011:Provera&50 mg Clomid; Progesterone:0.7 July 2011:Provera&100mg Clomid; Progesterone:3.29 Met with RE:No Clomid response, begin injectables Sep 5 mg Letrozole and Ovidrel in the interim month. Cut out running (was a distance-runner), cycling, eliptical. Restricted to weight-training, walking, pilates. Brain MRI normal. Being physically over-stressed is the reason the body stopped producing prog. Late Sep 2011: Menopur, Ovidrel,& IUI (10.10.11):BFN-Great injectable response: 2 mature, 6 near mature, many smaller; Problem: 9 cysts! Dr: IUI too uncontrolled for number of viable eggs & age. On to IVF! IVF ER 12.6: 37 mature eggs, 27 fertilized, froze all to avoid overstimulation; FET 1.22 (2 Grade 1)=BFN; FET 2.22 (3 Grade 2)=BFP! Beta 10dp3dt=291; 12dp3dt=644; HB 3.26!! 174 bpm: Vanishing twin almost completely absorbed 10wks

  I'm not getting "preppy" from any of these suggestions (except Blaine, because duh). To me, preppy=classic or family name.

  I like Blake.
  
  I suggest Liam.
  
  I don't really get a preppy vibe from them (more like a well read/athletic vibe.)

  I've heard that name on at least 4 boys I can think of off hand but I've never heard it on an appliance.
  
  If someone names their kid that, it's a name. All names started somewhere.

  When I think "preppy" boy names, I think of Landon & Carter. I came here to say that, but it seems you already have a Carter, so Landon is my suggestion! Although, I do love Reid, too. Very cool name.

  I love Landon, my only concern is that I know personally of one little girl Landon and there's a Landon (woman) on that show "Southern Charm" so am kind of worried that people are co-opting it for a girl's name. Ugh! A lot of the boy names I like (Blake) I feel this way about. Not sure if this changes what I'll do but it's definitely a concern.

  Going for preppy, Conrad and Clarke are both great names. There is also Blake. Brooke (Yup. It is totally a guy's name) and Laurie (also a guy's name - it's short for Lawrence).

  You might find some inspiration from this recent Town & Country preppy names slideshow -- 

  
  

  https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/tradition/g440/preppy-names/
  

  
  

  There's also always the Chip/Skip/Trip options -- (chip off the old block named after dad -- I've also known a friend's dad who goes by "Blocky" for this reason, but that's pretttttay out there; skip a generation named after grandfather; and such-and-such the III.)

  Since you're pretty much only considering last names, why not look at your family tree for inspiration?

  For whatever reason, all I could think of as I read through this entire thread is Atticus.
  
  So maybe not sporty-preppy, but definitely would fit in at prep-school.
