If we have a boy I'm strongly considering naming him Elias Reynolds.
The only thing is that my hubby and I aren't Hispanic and maybe it's usually a Hispanic name? Like naming the baby Juan or Diego? They're great names, I just want something that will go well with Evelyn, my daughter's name, which is English or Welsh in origin.

Re: Elias? yay or nay?
Have you tried highlighting names from the top 1000 to see if there's any overlap between you and your husband?
What are names your husband likes and what are names you like? Perhaps we can come up with some suggestions based on that.
My husband hasn't really given me names he likes. He just knows what he doesn't like. lol. We both like Reynolds.
I like biblical names and traditional names but I dislike names that are over used (Joshua, Micheal, etc). The catch is that I also dislike names that are so unique they start to get weird. It's a puzzle!
We both agreed on the name Levi two years ago when we were pregnant with our daughter but then some of our best friends ended up naming their baby Levi. Is it too weird for us to use it now?
I had to laugh at Ezra sounding "girly" - it's a Biblical boy name. One of my best friends has three kids - two of which are Ezra and Evelyn. The Es were not planned ahead of time - they just liked those names. It doesn't sound weird to me.
