Boy name ideas

lee^2 · March 2020

Having the hardest time coming up with boy names. My daughter’s name is Scarlett (nn Lettie). Top choices for girl are Juliet (nn Etta) and Elinora (nn Nell). Give me all your ideas on old fashioned boy names with cute but not super common nicknames!

Some ideas are Percival (nn Percy), Sullivan (nn Sully), Hugo (nn Huey). We are not set on any of these though.

We love Adler! That has been at the top of our list but we can’t think of a good nickname that goes with it

I would be a little wary of having a Lettie and an Etta. Sounds like a tongue twister.

PP gave a lot of good options for boys.

I wouldn't worry so much about a nickname, especially if you have a name you love. He could end up with a nickname that has nothing to do with his given name anyway!
FWIW, Addie could be a nickname for Adler.
