I'm looking for some ideas - we find it very hard to pick names that we both like, especially boys names. We got there in the end last time, but still, can't call our kids A1 and A2 if they're both boys
These are a few I like
Bodhi - DH hates
Miles - DH hates
Zafir - DH hates (you see a pattern emerging...?)
Earnest - DH says ok. I'm not sure about this one. I think Ernie is cute though.
Thanks!
Theo....hmmm.
I just remembered another name we like - Nathaniel. We have a close friend by that name though and don't want to give him a big head.
Yeah, I think Zafir is arabic... might be wrong about that. I like Zaf for short. Doesn't matter anyway, not allowed.
We find out (hopefully) what we are having tomorrow and if he's a boy he will be Oscar. We already have an Anton. Good luck! I find boys names really hard :0
We've got traditional names on our lists.
William
Robert (which, combined is DSs name)
Steven
Patrick
Antoine (pronounced An-twon)
Charles
Alexander
Damien
OHHHHHH love nathaniel honey...very nice and spesh
I love George as well...but Id prefer it the German was Georg but pronounced Gee-Orch
Johanas - John in German
Wolfgang
Emmett
Markas
We had so much trouble naming our DS, everything i liked DF hated and vice versa. Our boy didn't get a name until he was over 2 weeks (we knew he was going to be a boy from 18 week scan too), and our 3 year old was so confused because we called him something different every day!
I really liked Bodhi, he was called that for several days
We ended up with Leo Alexander, but also had:
Ajay (This was my favourite but a lot of people were negative about it being pronounced as initials A.J, it is actually pronounced A-Jai)
Morrison
Heath
Alexander
Jay
Jasper
DF's favourite boys name was Ariel (Seriously!) and Fabio was a close second...
Here are a few of my faves
Hayden
Cooper
Reuben
Rowan
Archer
Bennett
Owen
Quinn
Austin
Cade
Blake
Elliott
Ethan
Damien
Harlan
Jameson
Julian
Jared
Mason
Nathan
Lucas
Seth
Riley
Wyatt
Tyson
(I know I said a few lol! I love names )
Thanks everyone!
I have some more ideas to run by DH now.
I think I've figured out our problem though. I am drawn to names for aesthetic reasons, while DH seems to be more interested in names that have personal significance to him.
