Boy names are hard.....

I'm stuck. I'm nearly 30 weeks pregnant now, and all of my ultrasounds point to the baby being a boy. I can come up with cute original girl names with no trouble, but I'm drawing a blank on the boy.

Come on, I know some of you have fantastic names for your little men, so drop me a few creative suggestions please!!

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I thought we decided on one....

sort of

Lets name him LaShaunte

 

I like the name Ron i think it`s very nice.

 

Funny...Brian and I have come up with a good number of boy names. It's girl names we're having trouble with.

So far, we're liking Declan the most. I'd tell you more names, but I'd hate for us both to name our children the same

 

i'm not even preg yet and already have mine... but i can't tell you hehe...

I think hindu, african and arabic names are nice...

For boys i like names that start with K, N, R and S

and i think the meaning is extra important

here are some of my favorites:

K- Kai (ocean) hawai, Kareem (generous) arabic, Koen (brave) german
N- Nevan (little saint) celtic, Niran (eternal) tai
R- Ravi (sun) hindu, Ryu (dragon) japan
S- Shakir (greteful) african, Shay (gift) celtic,

hope you like

 

Go away asshole....I didn't invite you here, and you've been no help anyway.

Azure is still insisting we name him Micah. You'll have to take that up with her when you get home.

 

Here are the names we considered for boys when I was pregnant:

Taylor Edwin (the one we chose)
Kennan Denver
Adam Christopher
Asher Michael
Terran Robert

 

Don't give him a name. Just kidding. Boy names are hard. I came up with a few girl names right off the bat, boy boy names didn't come so easy. My wife picked the name Skye and I picked the name Trypp. Seeing as how she would let his first name be Trypp we used it as second name and put Skye in front of it.

 

I have a much easier time coming up with boys names that girls (am not TTC or anything, just interested in names and like planning ahead)


The names I liked best and want to use are those which have special meaning to me. In that they are after people I admire/care about, reflect my ancestry, are from mythology, things in nature, have good meanings. That kind of thing.

Here's my current list, it'll probably change soon though...
Banyan
Finlay
Dylan
Jonas
Jude
Killian (Kian for short)
Kiran
Leif [lay-f]
Leo
Lennon
Rio
River
Rowan
Taliesin [tal-yes-in]

behindthename.com is a great resource for ideas and other name related things.

 

If we have a boy, it will be Mandrid (Man-drid... like Madrid, but with an N). Manny for short, probably. It is a celtic-welsh name meaning "all powerful". We needed an M name, as my husbands family does this initials thing (has to be MDC) going back 5 generations. So, Mandrid Duncan is what it will be. Duncan is a family name on both sides..both my great gran's maiden name and his gran's maiden name.

Have you looked through the family tree? Sometimes there is inspiration there.. even just as a jumping off point.

 

My boy's name is Lennon. (Huge nerdy hippy Beatle fan parents.)
I've seen babies named Hendrix and Even Clapton. If you are into that kind of thing.

 

I put together a nice long list!
Morgan
Rowan
Xavier
Ciaran (Kieran)
Julian
Sebastian
Simon
Samuel
Jude
Rhys
August
Asher
Adrian
Leo
Zachary
Gabriel
Jasper
Lucas
Liam
Oliver
River
Owen
Quinn
Logan
Oscar
Harrison
Jonas
Levi
Noah
Hollis
Atticus
Isaac
Micah
Dorian
Alexander
Miles
Dominic
Silas
Ezra
Max
Elliot

Whatever you decide, please don't use a cre8tive spelling...your child will thank you in the future! Good luck!!

no babies here . .. but i was thinkin'

calvin felix
elijah jacob
stanley john
trent russell

 

They could call him "The Clap" for short... haha j/k

I have two sons...

Dylan Thomas
Nathaniel Alexander

 

yeah we're already aware of the "normal" name issue...Our daughter's name is Azure Brooke, we added Brooke just in case she decided later on in life that Azure was too weird. We've already planned on doing the same thing for this one.

And thanks everyone for the suggestions so far.

 

I know what you mean. When I found out I was preg I had the girls name right away and when i found out I was having a boy it took forever to come up with a name. But I can't help you out much more than anyone else... I had a hard enough time on my own kid's (his name is Trey Ryver btw)

 

I know, I was thinking that. IMO, Eric is preferable!

My kids have "normal" old fashioned names as second names, so if they want to be Micheal or Sarah, they can use those.
