Boy #3 will have no name

mamatowildones · November 2016

We are expecting baby and boy #3 and we are at a loss. It was hard to name our second and he didn't even have a name when he was born. This is even harder!! Siblings are Benjamin and Bradley. We've talked about Jacob Collin and Luke but we don't really get the happy feels with any of them. Any suggestions would be great!!

@Mamabeagle Benjamin was an old family name that we just fell in love with. And Bradley came out of nowhere. We just liked the name. Not a "B" theme going though. We like more traditional/older names. Also, we got rid of a ton because we hate the nickname possibilities. We loved William but hate bill or Willy. We likes Charles but hate chuck. It's so hard!!!

I like your option of Jacob. If you like William nn Liam? and Charles nn Charlie?

Just commiserating. I'm right there with you except girl #3.

If our LO had been a boy we would have named him William... I also hate Willy or Bill, but like William, Will or Liam

Also Suggesting:
James
Connor
Christopher
Robert
Thomas
Scott
John/Jack
Michael
Nathan

I know that you said that you don't have a 'B' theme going and I don't know if this is potentially your last baby, but personally it would bother me if two were 'B's' and the third/last was different.

That being said, I like Jacob and pp's suggestions of nn Liam for William.

If if you want some other 'B' names:
Brady
Brandon
Brian
Brooks

I think Luke sounds great with your boys. Other names I could see working would be Blake, Samuel, William, and Charlie. ❤️

My 3 year old has friends named William. Two of them go by Will and ine just William. He also knows a Charles that goes by Charlie.

If you otherwise love those names, i think you could still use them. I don't think many people use the Bill, Willy or Chuck nicknames anymore!

We have a Charlie and no one ever calls him chuck ever. I forbid it! Lol. But actually it never comes up

Thank you ladies. This was very helpful. We actually just added Joshua to the list. So now we are finalizing between Jacob Joshua and Luke. No idea how to choose haha
