    Boys names

    Hi
    having alot of difficulty coming up with a boys name....we have a dozen girls names that we love...but boys names we just can't agree on!! Our surname makes it difficult, I think....Lava...not an easy one to match up with.

    Names I like so far:
    Raphael
    Ethan
    Joshua
    Vegas.....husband hates this option...doesn't want his child named after Sin City!!!
    Diego

    any suggestions??

    Mountain Mummy has a son called Veygas....

    Ummm... you probably wouldn't like any of my suggestions - I have weird tastes.... but I don't mind if you call him Aricyn

    I will be watching this thread with interest - we are in the same boat. If I have another baby boy I fear the poor little thing will go nameless!!

    I love Jonah! Might suggest that one to DH....only to have him shoot it down more than likely! LOL. Have already suggested Eli but he said no to that too

    Out of your list, I like Raphael the best. I think Raph (Raf) is a cute nickname.
    Ethan is also nice, although becoming very popular.
    Not keen on Joshua personally.
    I have to agree with your husband on Vegas. Not my style at all.
    My kids love Diego ('Go Diego Go') so I automatically think of the character when I hear this name now. But this name has grown on me because of that. I never used to like it. Still not keen on the fact that it divides into 2 words, DIE & GO.

    I really like Ethan and Joshua out of the names you have. But Joshua Lava runs a bit better than Ethan Lava.

    Caleb/Kaleb Lava? That sounds okay? It is a difficult last name to match up with, but from the list you have, it's looking pretty good. :P

    I love Ethan lava sounds ace.

    Vegas - uh noooo sorry that is a bit OTT for me. Not a fan of naming children after american cities...

    you have such a cool last name though, you will need a strong name to carry it...probably one that doesnt end with an "ah" sound ...
    Christopher
    Zach
    Anthony
    Caleb
    Calvin
    Eli
    Andre
    Jack


    Good luck! Keep us posted
